Should You Eat A High Or Low Potassium Diet?





Potassium is an essential nutrient. Depending on your source of information, the recommended amount of daily potassium is between 2,500 to 4,700 milligrams. Since potassium deficiency is so rare in the U.S., there is no official recommend dietary allowance (RDA). Many food manufacturers use 4,000 mg a day to calculate the daily value (DV) listed on nutrition facts labels.

RDA’s and DV’s apply to healthy people. People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) must restrict potassium and other minerals because their kidneys cannot remove excess amounts. And in many cases, including potassium, high blood levels can be as dangerous as low levels.

One Interest rumor is that people with CKD must avoid high potassium foods. That is a myth. People with CKD must limit total daily potassium to essential amount. Whether the potassium comes high or low potassium foods is up to each individual.

Diet, Calories & Portion Control





Most people are overweight or obese due to diets providing more calories than their bodies need to maintain a healthy weight. With foods available 24/7 in many countries or while on vacation, it is easy to add a few extra pounds.

Adding a few extra pounds is not inevitable. It is due to a lack of understanding how easy it is to gain weight compared to losing weight.

While most people can lose weight on any diet, the secret is keeping the weight from coming back. Replacing a 3,000 calories high carb diet with a 3,000 calories low carb diet will not produce the miraculous weight loss some diet claim.

Too lose weight and keep it off on any diet requires controlling calories. Controlling calories requires limiting portion size.

Supersized portions usually results in supersized people.
