Default Great Link.

Mrs. D
Here is what I found on your web site.

1 baked potato = 1600 mgs potassium.
That is one third of the daily intake you suggest.
Two more foods with similar amount of potassium
and a person would have enough.

Here is what I found for magnesium:
1 cup black beans = 120 mgs
1 cup of brown rice = 84 mg magnesium
1 cup of oatmeal = 112 mgs magnesium
22 grams spinach = 180 mgs magnesium
This would give someone 496 mgs magnesium for the day: a good amount

(according to my math)


Thanks.
Mari
