How do i maintain the recommended daily potassium intake of 4,700mg, when supplements only have 99mg/cap!how's it possible through diet/supplements?

Dietary potassium: Why don't you get some of your potassium (K) from your diet. Here is a link that shows you the K content of common foods: http://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/potassium-supplement-oral-route-parenteral-route/description/drg-20070753 Common K sources are citrus fruits and potatoes. Who recommended that you have to ingest 4.7 grams of potassium per day and why was that amount recommended?

Can do via diet but: While 4700 mg/day is recommended, the average man gets 3200 & woman 2400 in the US, so some believe 4700 is over-ambitious. Supps only have 99mg because higher doses irritate stomachs. Beans, greens, potatoes, tomatoes, avocado & fruit are among the best sources.
