Eating too much food that is high in potassium can also cause hyperkalemia, especially in people with advanced kidney disease. Foods such as melons, orange juice, and bananas are high in potassium. Take certain drugs that prevent the kidneys from losing enough potassium. This can cause your potassium levels to rise.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a normal range of potassium is between 3.6 and 5.2 millimoles per liter (mmol/L) of blood. A potassium level higher than 5.5 mmol/L is critically hi...more

A healthy adult should aim to consume 3,500–4,700 mg of potassium daily from foods. Certain groups of people should aim to consume at least 4,700 mg per day. Because lack of potassium is rare, there is no rda or rni for this mineral. However, it is thought that 1600 to 2000 mg (40 to 50 milliequivalents [meq]) per day for adults is adequate. Remember: the total amount of potassium that you get every day includes what you get from food and what you may take as a supplement.
