Besides bananas, what other fruits and vegetables are high in potassium?
Other high-potassium fruits include avocados, cantaloupe, kiwi, raisins and dried apricots. Orange, grapefruit and prune juice are also strong sources. Tomato and tomato-vegetable juices (the tomato is technically a fruit) are high in potassium, but the regular versions of these juices are also high in sodium. Low-sodium and reduced-sodium versions are better choices if you want to stay within the current dietary sodium recommendations. Add a squirt of lemon or lime juice to perk up the flavor if you like. Concentrated sources of potassium can be found among vegetables. Dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach, white or sweet potatoes, winter squash and lentils, and beans like lima, kidney, navy and pinto are all good choices.
