    Do you have a diagnosed deficiency? If not you don't need to supplement.

    Not should you. Too much potassium can be very dangerous. Deadly even.

    I was really concerned about this until I realized most entries in the database either do not include potassium amounts or the amounts were grossly incorrect relative to serving size. I picked a day to recompute potassium intake using non-MFP values and saw that my intake was sufficient.

    Side bar - One of the "potato" entries I used did not include a potassium value, doh!!! :blush:
