High Potassium Foods to Limit Potassium is a mineral that is found mostly in fruits, vegetables and dairy products. It is very important to keep the amount of potassium in your blood at proper levels or serious complications can occur with your heart. Normal blood potassium is 3.5-5.5 mEq/L. The symptoms of a high and low potassium level are the same: weakness, tiredness, muscle cramps and irregular heartbeat. Below is a list of high potassium foods to limit. Avoiding these foods will help control potassium levels in the blood. Remember, dairy products (milk, ice cream, yogurt, etc.) are high in potassium and phosphorus. Limit dairy to ½ cup serving per day. Serving size is ½ cup or 4 ounces, unless specified otherwise (A high potassium food has more than 250 mg potassium per serving) Artichoke Kohlrabi Prune Juice Avocado Mango Pumpkin canned, fresh Banana Melons: cantaloupe, Refried Beans Bamboo Shoots, fresh casaba, honeydew Rutabaga Beans dried, cooked, Milk & Soy Milk Salt Substitute canned: kidney, lima, Nectarine Savoy Cabbage lentils, navy, pinto, Nuts, Peanuts Seeds: pumpkin, soy, great northern Orange, orange juice squash, sunflower Beets, fresh Parsnips Spinach, cooked, canned Bok Choy Papaya Succotash Carrot Juice Peas, mature, cooked: Squash, winter Chard, Swiss split peas, black-eyed, Sweet Potato Chocolate chickpeas, pigeon Tomato and tomato juice Dried Fruits: figs, Peppers, sun-dried Tomato paste- 3 Tbsp., prunes, raisins, Persimmons sauce – ¼ cup dates, apricots Potato: (unsoaked), Vegetable Juice Guava French fries, boiled, Water chestnuts, fresh Greens: beet hash brown, baked Yams Kiwi Potato Chips Copyright DaVita, Inc. 2007© .

    Li et al. Horticulture Research (2020) 7:212 Horticulture Research https://doi.org/10.1038/s41438-020-00449-z www.nature.com/hortres ARTICLE Open Access A chromosome-level reference genome of non- heading Chinese cabbage [Brassica campestris (syn. Brassica rapa)ssp. chinensis] Ying Li 1,Gao-FengLiu1,Li-MingMa2,Tong-KunLiu 1, Chang-Wei Zhang 1, Dong Xiao1, Hong-Kun Zheng2, Fei Chen1 and Xi-Lin Hou 1 Abstract Non-heading Chinese cabbage (NHCC) is an important leafy vegetable cultivated worldwide. Here, we report the first high-quality, chromosome-level genome of NHCC001 based on PacBio, Hi-C, and Illumina sequencing data. The assembled NHCC001 genome is 405.33 Mb in size with a contig N50 of 2.83 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 38.13 Mb. Approximately 53% of the assembled genome is composed of repetitive sequences, among which long terminal repeats (LTRs, 20.42% of the genome) are the most abundant. Using Hi-C data, 97.9% (396.83 Mb) of the sequences were assigned to 10 pseudochromosomes. Genome assessment showed that this B. rapa NHCC001 genome assembly is of better quality than other currently available B. rapa assemblies and that it contains 48,158 protein-coding genes, 99.56% of which are annotated in at least one functional database. Comparative genomic analysis confirmed that B. rapa NHCC001 underwent a whole-genome triplication (WGT) event shared with other Brassica species that occurred after the WGD events shared with Arabidopsis. Genes related to ascorbic acid metabolism showed little variation among the three B. rapa subspecies. The numbers of genes involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis and catabolism 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; were higher in NHCC001 than in Chiifu and Z1, due primarily to tandem duplication.

  • Turnip & Rutabaga
    Turnip & Rutabaga Rutabagas and turnips are closely related root vegetables. Rutabagas are larger, denser, and sweeter with yellow flesh, while turnips are smaller and white with purple, red or green around the top. Both are a great source of vitamins and nutrients, and are inexpensive winter vegetables. Both the root and the greens are edible and delicious. Cooking Tips Rutabagas and turnips are great sautéed, steamed, boiled, and roasted. Both should be peeled using a vegetable peeler or knife before cooking. Rutabagas are a great substitute for potatoes, and turnips can be used in place of carrots or parsnips. Fresh turnip greens can be cooked like spinach. Rutabaga Storage Store in a cool dry place up to 1 week, or wrap loosely in plastic and store in refrigerator crisper drawer for 3-4 weeks. Large rutabagas are often coated with food-safe wax to prolong shelf life: Turnips simply remove wax with the peel before using. Quick Shepherd’s Pie Ingredients: • 1 lb rutabaga or turnip (or both) • ¼ cup low-fat milk • 2 tbsp butter • ½ tsp salt • ½ tsp pepper • 1 tbsp oil (olive or vegetable) • 1 lb ground lamb or beef • 1 medium onion, finely chopped • 3-4 carrots, chopped (about 2 cups) • 3 tbsp oregano • 3 tbsp flour • 14 oz chicken broth (reduced sodium is best) • 1 cup corn (fresh, canned, or frozen) Directions: 1. Chop the rutabaga/turnip into one inch cubes. 2. Steam or boil for 8-10 minutes, or until tender. 3. Mash with butter, milk, and salt and pepper. Cover and set aside. 4. Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  • Improving the Root Vegetables
    IMPROVING THE ROOT VEGETABLES C. F. PooLE, Cytologist, Division of Fruit and Vegetable Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant industry LJlD the ancient civilizations arise in the regions where our common cultivated food plants originated and were naturally abundant? Or did man take food plants with him, so that the early centers of civili- zation only seem to be the centers of origin of the plants? This must remain an interesting subject of speculation, but few students doubt that civilization was dependent on the natural locations of the plants. At any rate, the regions that are now believed to be the natural centers of origin of the root vegetables (40, 4^)/ which were used as food long before recorded history, include practically all of the centers of the oldest civilizations. The present belief is that in the Old World there were six of these, with five of which we are here concerned, and in the New World two major and two minor centers, all of which produced valuable root vegetables: (1) Central and western China—radish, turnip, taro (dasheen). (2) India (except northwestern India)—taro. (3) Middle Asia (Punjab and Kashmir)—turnip, rutabaga, radish, carrot. (4) Near Asia—turnip (secondary center), beet, carrot. (5) The Mediterranean—turnip, rutabaga, beet, parsnip, salsify. (6) Ethiopia—no root vegetables. (7) Mexico—swectpotato. (8) South America (major)—taro, potato. (8a) Chile—potato. (8b) Brazil-Paraguay—cassava. The theory is that the place where a plant exhibits the greatest diversity of subspecies and varieties in its natural state must have been a center of origin of that plant.

  • Black Leg, Light Leaf Spot and White Leaf Spot in Crucifers
    A CLINIC CLOSE-UP Black Leg, Light Leaf Spot, and White Leaf Spot in Western Oregon Oregon State University Extension Service January 2016 A number of foliar fungal diseases can affect crucifer crops. Three fungal pathogens have emerged recently in western Oregon where epidemics of black leg, light leaf spot, and white leaf spot have been occurring since 2014. Black leg has been detected sporadically in Oregon since the 1970’s but historically black leg has caused significant problems wherever crucifers were grown. Crucifer seed rules have been in place within Oregon, Washington, and other markets to protect crucifer crops from black leg. Light leaf spot is new to North America, but has been reported in other regions of the world where it is known to cause significant seed yield losses of winter oilseed rape. Light leaf spot and black leg can both result in reduced yields or quality, depending on disease incidence and severity in vegetable and seed fields. White leaf spot has been previously reported in the US, but management has not normally been needed except in the southeastern US. White leaf spot may be less of an economic threat to crucifer production in the Pacific Northwest, compared to the risks from black leg and light leaf spot. The complete host range for these three diseases is not known at this time but it is likely that all Brassica and Raphanus crops grown in the Pacific Northwest are susceptible to some degree. These three diseases may be found on volunteer Brassica, Raphanus, and Sinapis species as well as crucifer weed species including little bittercress (Cardamine oligosperma), western yellowcress (Rorippa curvisiliqua), field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense), wild radish (Raphanus sativus), shepherd’s purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris), hedge mustard (Sisymbrium officinale), and field mustard or birdsrape mustard (Brassica rapa var.

  • Bok Choy History Boy Choy Has Green Leaves and White Ribs That Resemble a Stalk of Celery and Curve at the End to Form a Bulb
    Bok Choy History Boy choy has green leaves and white ribs that resemble a stalk of celery and curve at the end to form a bulb. It looks very similar to Swiss chard. The entire plant can be eaten raw or cooked. Bok choy is non-heading, meaning that the leaves do not form a ball, like lettuce or cabbage. It grows best in a cool environment. Hot weather causes the plant to flower, rather than produce leaves. A bok choy plant can be harvested within two months of planting. Bok choy is used mostly in salads but can be found in stir-fry or soups. It is grown in California and Hawaii year-round and can be found seasonally in New York, Florida, New Jersey, Michigan, and Ohio. It is primarily grown and consumed in Asia. You can find vitamin A and C in bok choy, as well as antioxidants, which work to protect the body from diseases and cancer. There is also vitamin K and calcium in bok choy, which aid in building strong bones. Recipes Bok choy pairs well with many other tastes and textures. Here are some ways to consider incorporating it into your meals: Sautee it and add to soups or other dishes. Pair with recipes that include garlic, ginger, mushrooms, soy sauce, tofu, pork, fish, broth, vinegar, or citrus. Steam and eat as a side vegetable. Add it to stir fry. Fun Facts It is also called bok choi, pak choi, the Chinese chard, Chinese mustard, and Chinese white cabbage. The name “bok choy” comes from the Chinese term for “soup spoon”.
