To get the recommended 4,700 milligrams per day of potassium, you have to eat your vegetables. A medium baked potato with skin provides about 900 milligrams of potassium. One-half cup of spinach, acorn squash or lima beans contains more than 400 milligrams. Fruit is also a good source of potassium.

Answer: Potassium chloride is widely used as a salt replacer or to provide potassium enrichment in many different food products including: Baby formulas Cereals Frozen entrees Meats Snack foods, such as chips or crisps Sports/electrolyte drinks Soups Sauces Snack/meal bars.Reformulation had the largest impact on: bread, processed fruit and vegetables, snacks and processed meat. Replacement of sodium chloride by potassium chloride, particularly in key contributing product groups, would result in better compliance to.

High-potassium foods (more than 200 mg per serving): 1 medium baked potato, with skin (925) 1 baked medium sweet potato, with skin (450) ½ cup of tomato or vegetable juice (275), or 1 medium raw tomato (290).If you need to boost the amount of potassium in your diet, make healthy food choices by picking items below to add to your menu. Many fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in potassium: Banana.Potassium chloride is widely used as a salt replacer or to provide potassium enrichment in many different food products including: Baby formulas.

Cereals. Frozen entrees. Meats. Snack foods, such as chips or crisps.

Sports/electrolyte drinks. Soups. Sauces. Snack/meal bars.The list of high-potassium foods may feel a bit overwhelming, but remember, for every high-potassium food to avoid, there’s at least one low-potassium food to enjoy.

The recommended serving size.Low-potassium foods are a safer option for people with CKD. According to the American Kidney Foundation, a potassium-restricted diet allows for 2,000 milligrams of potassium.

Sodium and chloride constitute table salt and therefore are widely found in modern diets. For the purpose of this article, we will list foods high in sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. In order to avoid bias, we will only rank foods without added sodium, with.

Food Potassium is found in a wide variety of plant and animal foods and in beverages. Many fruits and vegetables are excellent sources, as are some legumes (e.g., soybeans) and potatoes. Meats, poultry, fish, milk, yogurt, and nuts also contain potassium [ 3, 5 ].recommends that Americans eat more foods that are good sources of potassium, including vegetables, fruits, seafood, and dairy.

These foods include baked potatoes with the flesh and skin, plain yogurt, salmon, and bananas. 2 Potassium has been classified as a nutrient of public health concern.Substituting potassium chloride for sodium chloride was an effort to improve public health by increasing potassium consumption while simultaneously reducing the amount of sodium in processed foods.

Unfortunately, consuming too much potassium chloride can still produce the same negative health effects as it’s dangerous counterpart.Foods that offer less than 200 mg of potassium per serving, are categorized into low-potassium foods. Some recommended foods belonging to the low-potassium category are mentioned as follows.

Please Note: The potassium content in the foods mentioned in the table below is calculated based on an ounce.Cesium chloride and potassium are ionic liquid mineral dietary supplements in a highly absorbable concentrated form. Each serving of Cesium Chloride contains 1.5 grams (101,000 ppm) of cesium chloride and is the highest quality cesium chloride on the market today.Dairy foods that are low in potassium include cheddar cheese, cottage cheese and low-fat ice cream 1 3. A 1-cup serving of each of these items contains less than 60 mg of potassium 1 3. High potassium dairy products such as skim, whole and low-fat milk all contain more than 300 mg of potassium in each cup 1 3.

List of related literature:

One of the reasons our diet is high in salt (sodium chloride) and low in potassium is that we eat many processed foods, which are high in sodium and chloride, and too few fresh unprocessed foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, which are high in potassium.

  • Need to potato increase its true but when it taken in a form of fry potato like French fries, tikki n in other oily form,but when we take it in only boiled form than really it’s works

  • We could always just use MSG since it’s entirely harmless and is used as a salt substitute in other countries quite successfully.
    (Yes, it is actually entirely harmless and is a naturally occurring amino acid, just look it up.)

  • The scare tactics about sodium/salt got to me years ago, so we don’t use much salt. As a fair replacement to salt’s “bite”, we’ve been using garlic; the powder, mostly. Now, I find most”normally seasoned” foods to be too salty. Now to finish the video to see if they mentioned that.

  • Jesus the company that sold lithium salt that sickened and killed people sounds like a piece of lore from a Fallout game

  • Good to see a rational comments thread for once. Yes salt is dangerous for some people with hypertension that are sensitive to it. Whether the population as a whole should cut down on salt seems at best unproven and at worst plain wrong. Japanese have one of the longest life expectancies and the highest salt consumption.

  • Evolution: Makes sodium chloride receptors specific to both sodium and chloride. Because sodium chloride is an indicator of electrolyte content in food.
    Scientists: Gasp! How peculiar that evolution would result in receptors that are so good at detecting such vital ions. Makes an ionic compound that is not sodium chloride. But…will it fit?
    Nature: Really?

  • Magnesium Chloride? Maybe? How about Fluor based salts? I think Fluor can be dangerous in high ammounts, though I’m not sure. But I’m fairly clear that magnesium is safe to go (though it tastes terrible)

  • The Pan salt you can find in europe is a decent alternative not full substitute but only 20% NaCl and no diff in taste.

  • I think they mean the taste of salt. But still…… why? Food without salt can be bland but it doesnt mean its not edible or tasty.

  • This is an example for “i’m simple but unique and can’t be replaced”
    Now when you advice someone, just simply say “be salt” lol

  • Wasn’t lithium chloride also the basis for certain psychiatric medicines, before lithium carbonate took over?

  • Wow, so many comments hating on scientists trying to solve a problem. Sure, it’s not at all a problem to the majority of humanity like ads have made it out to be but since when was trying to help those who do actually have an issue(in this case, not being able to handle much sodium chloride in their diet) a bad thing?

    Tl;dr, people rebounding from too much hype in to the opposite extreme.

  • I recall that calcium chloride is quite similar in taste. The food industry already uses calcium chloride for several applications. Why no mention?

  • So what’s the difference between various kinds of salt? (Kosher, table, Himalayan mountain salt, and other esoteric and exotic varieties)

  • Like many in this comment, I fail to see the reason we need one in the first place? Dumb companies trying to reduce the amount of “salt” in their stuff while keeping flavor? Like they do with Aspartame??? Because we know damn well how great of an idea Aspartame is…..

  • We literally evolved to NEED these two. Sugars can come in many different forms and our bodies can deal with most of them, fairly interchangeably (I said fairly, comment section). Sodium and Chloride are sort of non-negotiable for survival. Why would we need a substitute?

  • In the Netherlands we have a candy named drop (liquorice). We have a sweet and a salty variation. But although the salty variation tastes way saltier, it actually has less NaCl than the sweet variation. We put salmiak (ammonium chloride) in our salty liquorice.

  • As soon as lithium chloride came up I just said “oh no…” The cynic in me figured out the rest before he said it.

  • isn’t it obvious why we like NaCl??? our muscles, nerves and neurons and mitochondria use sodium ions to freaking work. honestly the answer to this video is a no brainer. there is no salt subtitutor

  • What are the receptors that pick up the “metallic” taste; bitter, sour, salty, sweet, umami, or something different?

  • Why would you ever want a substitute for salt? That makes no sense! The body self regulates it’s own need for salt, so unless you’re deliberately designing food to camouflage the “saltiness”, there is no need to replace it. People get too little sodium in general anyway, because they basically try and restrict their intake to nothing.

  • Fun Fact: Sodium tends to get a lot of hate for being considered ‘unhealthy’ however, did you know, Sodium Deficiency has become more common sense the rumors? Conditions such as Hyponatremia can be a big threat to your physical health to arise another issue is that even though people may complain about high blood pressure caused by too much salt they don’t normally talk about how low your blood pressure can get when you have cut sodium out of your diet completely! Sometimes, it can be as severe as leading you into a comatose state and give you seizures if you lack a balanced diet of sodium.

    It’s important for sodium to be in the body so your muscle could function properly as sodium helps prevents Charley Horses alongside potassium intakes to prevent Mineral Depletion.

    And another argument made about having a high intake of Sodium will be caused by strokes or heart attacks. Well, as a heart patient and cardiac survivor I can safely assure you this is not the case. In fact, one of the theories as to why I went into cardiac arrest was that my body was refusing the intake of salt and was passing it through my body quicker than it can absorb it. I was soon considered Sodium Deficient and still am to this day and need to talk a much higher does of salt than a normal individual to prevent me from going into something probably much worse.

  • NaCl is not bad to begin with. We can’t live normally without taking sodium in proper amount. In other hand, you don’t need to consume processed white sugar to live at all.

  • I use potassium chloride as a substitute in soup and other foods. This lowered my blood pressure drastically. It tastes weird by itself, but it tastes like normal salt on food as long as there isn’t a ton of it lol.

  • Why do you want a salt substitute? Is it because of the myth that salt is bad for you? Please read The Salt Fix by Dr. James DiNicolantonio. Let’s put an end to this harmful myth once and for all.

  • friends can I have your suggestions about what to substitute over SODIUM METABISULFITE? Something that is over the counter?

  • I work with lithium chlorideI inject it in rats for an experiment in which we’re conditioning them to not value a certain reward (since injected lithium chloride in rats gives a temporary, short-lived sickness that can be played off as resulting from a particular treat acting as an operant conditioning outcome)and I got so confused when stefan said that it would be a good salt substitute (until confirming that it is toxic)

  • I don’t understand why you would want a substitute to table salt?

    Alternatively, I can’t understand peoples who choose decaf tea or coffee either.

  • Are brains of research scientist not working properly, its because the life evolved in ocean and NaCl has highest concentration as compare to other salts in ocean water,So naturally the evolution made use of it to calibrate our receptors.

    If am true than am patenting my idea��

  • So we need something with similar physical and chemical properties to sodium that isn’t sodium. Potassium ions are too big, and lithium is toxic, so that leaves… (checks periodic table) hydrogen. There we go hydrogen chloride, the perfect sodium-free salt substitute.

    What could possibly go wrong?
