> To make matters worse, the FDA limits the amount of potassium that can be present in supplements to 100mg[2]. So good luck taking 30 supplements to meet your daily requirements!

You don't need nearly 30 pills, even with a poor diet. Almost all foods, even junk foods, have some amount of potassium. Per 100g (3.5oz), a random sampling from my typical snacks, lunches and breakfasts:

  chicken breast       223mg
  cooked white rice    35mg
  cooked pasta         24mg
  1 large egg          69mg
  whole milk           132mg
  apple                107mg
  bagel                165mg
  almonds              705mg
  banana               358mg
  Miss Vickie's Sea Salt & Vinegar Flavored Potato Chips  1260mg

Potato chips are high in potassium and have a close to ideal 2:1 ratio of potassium to sodium. Superfood!

Lol why potato chips? Why not just potatoes?

I eat potatoes most days, usually just boiled, sometimes baked to help get more potassium.
