A Blueberries and kiwis are not the best choice to replace potassium losses from furosemide, as they are not potassium-rich foods.
B Oranges and sweet potatoes help replace potassium losses from furosemide.
C Kale and cucumbers do not provide adequate amounts of potassium to replace losses from furosemide.
D Bananas are a high-potassium food; however, watermelon is not. Other melons, such as cantaloupe and honeydew, are high in potassium.
