3. Some Types of Bread
Some types of bread are going to be okay for potassium. That’s good because there are some items that are listed here that are low in potassium that almost require bread. For example, later on, we will discuss hot dogs, which have less than 100 mg of potassium for a single dog. But it isn’t really a hot dog without hotdog bun or a slice of bread.
That’s why you’ll be pleased to know that if you choose multi-grain or whole-grain bread you are only looking at around 60 mg of potassium per slice. So you can have a hot dog for lunch without feeling too guilty as well as opening up a number of other sandwich options for your low potassium menu. There are definitely some types of bread that you should avoid however because the potassium levels can go through the roof if you choose the wrong ones.
