Top 10 Foods Low in Potassium

Broccoli

Broccoli is a type of green veggie that is closely related to cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, or cabbage. It is considered to be a nutritional powerhouse of many essential antioxidants, fiber, minerals, and vitamins. One cup of raw broccoli (around 90 grams) can meet 8 percent of the recommended daily intake of potassium. Broccoli could be eaten raw or cooked without affecting its nutrient profiles. However, some cooking methods, like steaming, stir-frying, microwaving, or boiling would lower the levels of vitamin C. [2]
