Avocado

We’ve all heard how nutritious and healthy avocados are and how great they are for the heart with plenty of good fats, fiber, and antioxidants. Well, despite the fact that they normally are a healthy addition to someone’s diet, people who have kidney problems have to steer clear od them. The reason for this is that avocados are a rich source of potassium. One cup – approximately 150 gr – of avocado has 727 mg of potassium. This is double the amount than that of a medium banana. Due to this fact, avocados, and guacamole should be avoided if someone has to watch their potassium intake.
