[Guest guest]

OK this is a list from a book I found called SuperfoodsRX /don't remember

the author sorry/

BEANS-all beans including lims, garbanzo, lentils, green beans, sugar peas and

green peas.

BERRIES-inc purple grapes, carnberries, boysenberries, raspberries,

strawberries, currants, blackberries, cherries, (fresh, frozen, or dried).

OATS-steel cut, also wheat germ and ground flaxseed.

ORANGES-also lemons, white and pink grapefruit, kumquats, tangerines, and

limes.

PUMPKIN-also carrots, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, orange bell peppers.

SALMON-also alaskan halibut, cnned albacore tuna, sardines, herring, trout,

sea bass, oysters and clams.

SOY-all forms inc tofu, soy milk, soy nuts, edamane, tempeh, and miso

TOMATOES-also red watermellon, pink grapefruit, japanese persimmons, red

fleshed papaya, and strawberry guava.

WALNUTS- also almonds, pistachios, peanuts, sesame seeds, pumpkin and

sunflower seeds, macadamia nuts, pecans, hazelnuts, and cashews.

This book claims that there are superfoods that will help us fight cancer and

other health alliments (sp?). The food in CAPS is the " superfood " they listed

and then the also's are the " sidekicks " in the book. I included everything that

said it contained potassium on their list. Hope this helps..............If

anyone has more info on this pls let me know. I also heard of some health sites

that i'll past on when I find them. We had to wipe the computer and I lost all

my favs. DARN!!!!

this diet that bothers me, is how am I going to get my potassium?

That's why I eat the Heart Healthy oatmeal, it's fortified with the

right amount of potassium. I have a problem with not getting enough

when I don't eat that. Banannas, oranges and cantalop are all high in

it, but they are off limits. I can't take a multiple vitamin because

they all contain either iodine, or green tea - I can't have either.

Is there a veggie I'm missing?
