my grandaad cant have potassium because of his heart is there any fruit and veggies with no potassium in or any what is no danger to him. thankyou
Some fruits and vegetables that are low in potassium (with less than 100mg of potassium in ½ a cup) are: Applesauce, blueberries, cranberries, lemon or lime (½ medium), pears, cabbage, cucumber, green beans, leeks, iceberg lettuce, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. Click here for more information about potassium. I would encourage speaking with his physician, and perhaps see about speaking with a registered dietitian who can help with meal planning based on his specific medical needs.
Hello: I hope you can help me I am having my aunt over for dinner she is 91 years of age. She has informed me that her potassium level is high, I would like to plan a meal around low and high potassium in fruit and vegetable. could you please educate me on this subject. thank you Michelle
