Potassium
Fresh food contain a lot of potassium relative to the amount of
sodium. This ratio is reversed in most processed foods. This ratio is very important. The
FDA does not allow supplement companies to put very much potassium in their products.
Thus, the best sources of potassium are salt substitutes like No Salt (all potassium) and
Morton's Lite Salt (half potassium). A quarter teaspoon of No Salt contains 650 mg of
potassium.
