Sweet potatoes/yams have the highest potassium content of all, and I cook them with all my veggie stews for the final 5-10 minutes cooking time.

This sounds delicious!!

Artichoke hearts aren’t they pretty high in sodium or is there a low sodium one you are using? Need to keep mine low.

[@thedocandchef]

Hi Paul, You can rise them and wash off a lot of the soaking water (sodium).

3:52 So skip the *"preventive maintenance"* doctors visits and just eat the beet greens and other whole foods to prevent kidney issues 🥬🥔🍌

For. The. Win!
