Potassium sources

Good potassium sources include fresh fruits, vegetables, soybean flour, shellfish, beans, wheat bran, salad, nuts, cereals, meat, milk, coffee and tea. Many food additives such as potassium iodate used in bread baking, also contain potassium.
Potassium is easily lost in cooking and processing foods.
