[QUOTE="JohnEGreen, post: 1110203, member: 223921"] There are foods that have more potassium than bananas so how sure are you that it is the bananas and any way bananas have a highish sugar content so would not eat too many for that reason. Some foods that can contain higher levels of potassium are: Sweet potato 542 mg of potassium (for one medium-sized, baked sweet potato). Spinach 839 mg of potassium per cup Yogurt standard 8oz serving contains 579 mg of potassium White beans 502 mg of potassium in half a cup Avocado 487 mg of potassium contained in half the fruit. So if you have been eating any of those that could be a contributing factor. And hi and welcome to the forum yes I have a hard time with the sweet stuff so allow my self an occasional treat now I have lost weight and have my BG more controlled. [/QUOTE]
