Potassium is identified in the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans as a nutrient of concern (1, 2) as it is associated with health benefits but is under consumed by most individuals. The Adequate Intake (AI) recommendation by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) varies by age and sex. Among adults, the AI is 3400 mg per day for males and 2600 mg for females (3). Adequate potassium intake is associated with lower blood pressure (1) and may help counteract the effects of a high sodium intake on blood pressure (2). This report presents data on potassium intake of the U.S. population using dietary intake data from What We Eat in America, NHANES 2017-2018. Foods that contribute to dietary potassium intake are also discussed.
