Less than 2 percent of Americans achieve even the recommended minimum intake of potassium, due primarily to inadequate intake of plant foods. We need 4,700 mg of potassium a day.

Here are the amounts of potassium found in different plant foods:
1 cup cooked lentils = 731 mg
1 cup cooked black beans = 611 mg
1 cup cubed butternut squash = 582 mg
1 medium sweet potato (with the skin) = 542 mg
1 cup cubed cantaloupe = 427 mg
1 medium banana = 422 mg
1 medium sweet potato (without the skin) = 347 mg
1 cup chopped zucchini = 324 mg
1 cup cooked quinoa = 318 mg
1 cup raw broccoli = 288 mg
2 cups raw collards = 153.4 mg
2 cups raw kale = 145.2 mg

Greens are rich in nitrates and a good source of potassium, so they give us a double whammy of nutrition and are worthy of spotlighting. Nitrates from green leafy veggies are converted to nitric oxide in the body, and potassium increases nitric oxide release. Including high-nitrate vegetables and potassium can help lower our blood pressure and improve our arterial function.

Let me show you how easy it is to make a Pumpkin Spice Latte at home that’s better than Starbucks… REALLY!

First, you’ll need to grab the Potassium Sorbate and Carrageenan out of your pantry to make the flavoring… Ha ha, just kidding! 🤣

Of course, you’d never use those ingredients in your coffee. But Starbucks does.

This is why I had to remake the Pumpkin Spice Latte with an easy recipe you can use at home!

To make the Pumpkin Spice Latte at home, all you do is add your choice of milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spices, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to a small saucepan. After it heats up, pour it into your cup of coffee. That’s it!

You can make a big batch of the latte and store it in your fridge for 3-4 days, that way it will be ready when you’re in a hurry. Simply heat it back up…or pour it over ice.
