<< What foods contain magnesium and
 potassium? >>

Magnesium: dark green, leafy vegetables (spinach, collards, mustard greens,
kale, turnip greens -- no light green leafy vegetables count); nuts and;
crab.  This list is why a lot of people decide to take magnesium in
supplemental form.

Potassium: any piece of fruit.  Bananas must be able to afford a great public
relations firm because that's the one most people name as a source of
potassium, but all fruits and vegetables are good.

Hope you're making all that milk the low fat variety.  Here in the American
South, "milk" used to mean buttermilk and the kind that most people drink now
was known as "sweet milk".  Buttermilk is low fat.  I think I'll go get a
bowl and crumble some cornbread into it and pour on the buttermilk and eat it
with a spoon.  Mmmmmmm!
