Guest guest Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 I continue to be puzzled by your data on the Orange. I assume that it's a misprint when it states that " 1 large " refers to Orange juice rather than to an Orange. Also confusing is that " 1 large (fresh) Orange (or Orange juice) contains 936 mg of Potassium, while " 1 med. " Orange, which I assume is not that much smaller than " 1 large " Orange, contains a measly 234 mg of Potassium(?). I nevertheless strongly applaud your efforts to inform us regarding the very important mineral: Potassium. thanks jp - surpriseshan2 mcs-canada Saturday, December 23, 2006 11:14 AM Potassium-Rich Foods Potassium-Rich Foods http://www.essense-of-life.com/info/potassiumfoods.htm FOOD SERVING POTASSIUM Apple 1 med. 143 mg Apricot, fresh 1 med. 170 mg Banana 1 med. 555 mg Dates, dried 1 each 65 mg Grapes, green seedless 1 cup 220 mg 8 oz. 250 mg Orange juice, fresh 1 large 936 mg 1 med 234 mg (snip) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
