It's rarely an issue unless you have a medical condition.

Eat normal food, you'll have plenty of potassium.

Generally it takes 3 weeks to develop a vitamin deficiency. To a point where it effects ur health.. I don't even think any of the fucks on this board are out longer then a week.

Just eat foil packs of tuna or chicken. Tuna contains a ton of potassium and chicken contains a goodly amount.

Alternatively, freeze dried peas or soybeans both contain a bunch and weigh basically nothing.

arent white beans and banana good for K ?
muesli with banana is godlike and beans are a fine standard camp food.

While true for anything less than 2 weeks vitamin deficiency is a non issue the fact that potassium is an electrolyte and not a vitamin renders your point moot.

fresh bananas aren't convenient for backpacking, and i find banana chips to be too oily and sugary. has anyone tried dried banana? how's the texture?

Not hard like the chips, but still substantial.

The banana chips I get are the same as those in trail mix. They are the hardest thing in the trail mix besides almonds and they snap and crunch when eaten. I once bought them by the bag. They are basically like candy.

>A 100-gram serving of banana chips contains 536 milligrams of potassium compared to the 358 milligrams in 100 grams of raw banana.

I came back from a couple weeks /out/ and kept getting odd sensations in my heart. I had an ultrasound and ECG done and it turned out I was lacking in potassium. Not to the point of being severely Hypokalemic though.

couldn't find any dried peas, but i got a bag of inka plantain chips. they're not greasy or oily like regular banana chips, but holy fuck they're bland. kinds like slightly sweet, slightly stale, low salt potato chips.

>>1030459
damn, that's scary. glad you got checked out and are okay. how would you describe the odd sensations? and did they tell you want your heart was physically doing that was causing them?

I do it a lot when I make dried apple chips and other such things.

Seriously, spend $100 on a dehydrator. It may be expensive at first but if you prep and are out a lot it quickly saves a lot of money. Bags of dried fruits can go upwards of six, seven bucks here in AR, whereas for the same amount I can buy 20 apples and make five bags of dried chips. Then I just put them in a ziploc and do the same shit.

I have a $200 one (you can get it cheaper on ebay from the same company.)

$199+free shipping (I paid $260 years and years ago)

It has been amazing. I use it for veggies from my farm harvesting. you can even dehydrate unconventional things like beef stew, fully prepared pasta meals, etc. Just make sure it has 10% moisture or less. Bag it/jar it/vacuum seal it and rehydrate/cook/eat "raw" later on the trail. See a great sale on fruit or something, buy in bulk and dehydrate it. Get a food business license then get bulk stuff directly from local warehouses for ultra cheap.

Buy low sodium salt replacement. There, you have high density potassium chloride ready to go. For rehydration drink, I used sodium, potassium chlorides and sugar.

i think i'll buy a cheapy to have until i know i'm actually going to use it regularly and i get annoyed at how little i can dry and how long it takes with a bargain one.

i also finally found peas. they're good, but drier than fucking sand. i think i'd have to drink so much water with them i'd just piss out all the potassium i gained.
