Potassium is essential for bone and heart health.

It is especially important for people with high blood pressure and may decrease heart disease and stroke risk.

So in this video, I'm looking at 6 of the best food sources of potassium.

As a mineral analysis practitioner most people are too low in potassium but there’s Got to be a balance with some other minerals. If you eat potassium and get muscle twitching add calcium and you still twitch add magnesium (magnesium lowers sodium potassium) magnesium is one reason we twitch. But potassium and calcium use each other so for me when I increase potassium I need calcium and we also need magnesium and potassium to utilize calcium!! A great way to get all three is nettle infusions but they’re high in magnesium low in sodium (Remember magnesium lower sodium and potassium) So just make sure you’re getting your sodium from pink Himalayan sea salt or you can add in oatstraw to the infusions for the raised sodium

bananas= 12%daily intake of potassium and 1,000,000% of sugar intake (double that for potatoes) = a big marker that this wasn't intended for people with diabetic issues.

According to Dr Berg, we need 4700mg of potassium everyday. I wondered how come you completely missed out broccoli and kale and other cruciferous veges???

At 2:09 , " bananas are kind of famous as being a good source of protein." Really? This made me: Isn't it possible to make a video, and then reviewing before uploading it to YouTube?
