Summary:
Before we discuss the best low-potassium foods, let’s explore why potassium is important…
Kidneys have a vital role to play in keeping you healthy. They clean your blood by removing any waste products and excess fluids.

Potassium plays an essential role in your body.
You get potassium from your diet, and it's key to keeping your heartbeat at a regular pace.

So, what happens when potassium levels go up?
When you check your potassium levels, they should be below 5. Anything above is cause for concern.

Now, which foods are low in potassium?
The foods you need in your diet should have less than 200 milligrams of potassium for every serving.

Pineapple
Pineapple is one of the fruits with a low amount of potassium per serving. It comes with many other health benefits, so adding it to your diet when you have kidney disease can be helpful.

Cabbage
Cabbage can be part of your diet even if you have kidney disease, as it has a low amount of potassium for every serving.

Egg whites
Eggs whites, at their very basic, make up 90% water and 10% protein. It is also very low in calories and has only trace amounts of potassium.

White pasta
White pasta, without tomato-based sauce, is another good dish to have if you have kidney disease. One cup of cooked spaghetti only has 2% of your body’s daily potassium intake.

Apple
An apple a day keeps the doctor away! More importantly, for people with kidney disease, eating 200 grams of apple would still give you only 5% of the potassium your body requires daily.

Red grapes
Red grapes can also be a beneficial part of kidney patients' diet. For every 100 grams of red grapes, you just get 191 milligrams of potassium. Making them a great part of low-potassium diet.

Garlic
One clove of garlic, around 3 grams, has just about 12 milligrams of potassium. It would be beneficial for kidney patients and is part of most recipes around the world.
