Does anyone know if coconut milk is high in either potassium or phosphate? Found a delicious non-dairy ice confectionery made with coconut milk. ???

Go to USDA
http://www.nutrition.gov/nal_display/index.php?info_center=11&tax_level=1
just enter in the food and it will give all kinds of information .........

Coconut Milk has 100mg of Phosphorus and 263mg of Potassium in a 100gram serving.......enjoy..

Tyefly is correct.
Here is the link refined a bit:
http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
If you search for Coconut milk, you'll find several listings:
Nuts, coconut milk, canned (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)
Nuts, coconut milk, frozen (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)
Nuts, coconut milk, raw (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)
Puddings, coconut cream, dry mix, instant, prepared with 2% milk
Puddings, coconut cream, dry mix, instant, prepared with whole milk
Puddings, coconut cream, dry mix, regular, prepared with 2% milk
Puddings, coconut cream, dry mix, regular, prepared with whole milk
I chose the second selection: coconut milk, frozen (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)
and selected 1 cup:
Phosphorus, 142 mg
Potassium, 557 mg
So that's a bit high in potassium.
But it all depends on the concentration of the coconut milk. The ice cream may be diluted somewhat.

Hmmmnn, never tried coconut milk, although the kids have. Have though, used Virgin Coconut Oil for the many benefits it offers one.
Namely the medium chain fatty acids (mcfa) and the lauric acid. When I think of it, I just down a teaspoon full of VCO, hold it in my mouth and let the saliva mix in and swallow. Should do this three times a days, but when I'm involved with other things, like posting in IHD, another forum, and my blog, tuning up my Mantis tiller, and other lawn stuff, repairing my computers, just plain not around the VCO jar to take a swig. Anyway our brain like the (mcfa) , while the body likes the lauric acid.
Actually slowing down some what, and am leaving the lawn stuff for the baby kid, (Ha at 50 he's really not a baby)

Does Organic High Heat Sunflower Oil or Refined Walnut Oil have similar healthful attributes to Coconut Oil?

Ah, loaded question. .:Kit n Stik;
Ha, checking into any type of oils (oral / cooking) is almost imposable to decipher due to so much misinformation. To often, bad information is cited as a valid reference source. Had to dig deep into my files, and found scant info on Sunflower Oil and Refined Walnut Oil. What was significant in my meager findings was the omega 6 content, and susceptibility to any heat.
So NO, Organic High Heat Sunflower Oil and Refined Walnut Oil, IS NOT on my OK listing.
Ones body does need some saturated fat, regardless of who says 'you shouldn't'. At least is how I treat my body.
Zach you have a neat, inquisitive mind set. :beer1;

Maybe you can substitute rice milk, it does have a nutty taste, and it's low in K & P.

Was a time the food chain was supplying uncontaminated products.
White rice is now highly arsenic laced, (according to latest reports) so will mostly avoid eating it.

You put the lime in the coconut then shake it all up and..oh wait. Sorry. Those were words to an old 70's song. Nevermind.. :guitar:

I've discovered the MC (Music Choice) channels on TV to prime and "snap-n-tap" by and to help guide my husbands needles down his buttonholes. We're now finding ourselves playing these music channels, laughing and singing thru entire treatment sessions and before we know it, it's time to turn down the volume and concentrate on pulling his needles but oh...another Barry White song comes on and... :yahoo;

In our house the only music allowed is from the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. The "Golden Age " of Rock and Roll.

SOme coconut milk products have as much as 600 mg potassium in them. They can vary a lot. Just be really careful.
