I asked Dr. Pope why I might be having strange cramps in my toes, and he suggested that (because of the Sjogren's Syndrome keeping me a little dehydrated) I probably needed more potassium.
This reminded me that Dr. Griffiths also had told me to be careful about potassium. So I looked up potassium on Wikipedia:
Bananas, okay, I like bananas. And Apricots. And chocolate. I don't much like nuts but, hey, I can eat a few. Potatoes. okay. Bamboo shoots: no way. Bananas: fine, though they have to be ripe - the unripe ones make my mouth sore. Avocados: yum. Soybeans - does that mean tofu, too? I don't much like beans, but I like soy milk and tofu. Fruit, vegetables, meat, fish: yes, of course.
But first, pizza for supper.

Foods rich in potassium include parsley, dried apricots, dried milk, chocolate, various nuts (especially almonds and pistachios), potatoes, bamboo shoots, bananas, avocados, soybeans, and bran, although it is also present in sufficient quantities in most fruits, vegetables, meat and fish.
