    "Lite" salt has potassium. But if you are thinking you are "low" because of the numbers MFP data base gives you, it's probably not a thing - many, many of the entries don't have potassium #s at all.

    Yes, I'm anemic and look at iron values - the majority of the time the value is missing or wrong in USER-created entries (I've never had an issue with micros in ADMIN-created entries that were pulled from the USDA database.)

    Also, potassium was not required to be on food labels until 2018, so many older entries may omit it for that reason as well.
