2 What is potassium? l Potassium is a mineral found in many foods and drinks l The level of potassium in your blood is usually controlled by the kidneys. When your kidneys are not working properly the potassium level in your blood may rise l Too much potassium can be dangerous as it affects the rhythm of your heart and can cause a heart attack if levels are very high l To keep your potassium levels down it is important that you follow the advice in this leaflet. Cooking Methods For potatoes and vegetables it is important that they are cooked in the following way: l Boil in a large amount of water l DO NOT steam, microwave or use a pressure cooker to cook foods l Throw the cooking water away, do not use to make gravy or in sauces. Starchy foods Dairy products Meat and fish Lower potassium Bread: white and wholemeal Chapatti Noodles Pasta Cereals e.g Weetabix and Cornflakes Rice Flour/cornflour Naan Eggs Cheese AVOID OR USE PORTION SIZE IF STATED Potato, sweet potato, cassava, or yam should be boiled (150g/day) Once boiled can be mashed, roasted, chipped or sautéed Chips (unless par-boiled) Jacket potatoes Frozen roast potatoes/chips Potato waffles Breads and cereals containing fruit/ nuts/seeds/chocolate No more than ½ pint milk daily No more than 3-4 milky puddings or yoghurts weekly Please speak to your dietitian about the appropriate portion sizes of these foods to include in your diet.
