I'm confused- a lot of the foods in the IC Diet seem to be high in potassium, which my doctor said I might need to limit. It seems impossible to win. Is there a list of foods and the recommended amount you should eat if you also have to limit potassium? Does anyone else have to worry about this?

One thing to keep in mind is that potassium is an essential nutrient; a deficiency can be extremely serious (been there!). It's not a good idea to overload on any nutrient, but we do need to get an adequate amount.
