What foods can help me get more potassium into my diet?

Fruits and vegetable: Most fruits and vegetables have good amounts of potassium. Just be sure to buy organic when you can. Organic foods tend to have 3 to 5 times the nutrient content of non-organic foods.

I'm on a lower carb diet, it's working for me but it's hard to get all the potassium needed. I hear things about electrolyte supplements, I have one that has 1,180 mg of potassium chloride, it makes me feel better but is it too much? Should I stop?
