5. High in Potassium
Potassium is just one of the essential minerals your body needs to get itself through the day – and
ensure that your health remains in excellent condition throughout your life.
Your body needs potassium, especially to keep your heart and veins in good condition as you get older – and many people start having a need for potassium as they get older, usually in the form of supplements or cranberry pills. You can derive the same benefit just by include cranberry juice in your diet.
Potassium also becomes essential when controlling any health conditions related to your heart, like high blood pressure, or an increased risk of heart attacks at any point.
Cranberries are extremely high in potassium, even higher than many of its berry-family counterparts – and cranberries can contain as much as 51g of sodium per 100g of cranberries; that’s as much of it as you’ll find in many different multivitamins.
