I am struggling to get enough potassium daily. I have high blood pressure and this is essential for me. Other than avocados and bananas any suggestion? Preferably food suggestions rather than supplements. Also I am a CLEAN EATER

    Coconut water. It is 60 calories for a small container. I usually drink one after my workouts. Has more potassium than a banana and not too sweet.

    Fruits and vegetables. Fish. My diary is public and I track potassium if you want some more ideas.

    Potaotoes and bananas off the top of my head. But here is a link to a great website that breaks down the top 100 healthiest foods. It has a food of the week and it is really helpful in letting you know what each food does for your body. All the foods listed are common and easy to find. Hope it helps..not sure what clean eater means
