It doesn't actually state Banans though, and for the possible Conversion of some Fructose to Fat in the liver, and the possible moderate regular Glycemic Loads, potentially changing the PH of someones blood long-term, I'd say potentially apply the theory to other Potassium foods.
what if you wanna build muscles? not that i know what potassium is in but what if they were eating high protein/high potassium foods? maybe the protein was doing the job and not the potassium...

If the authors of the original study got that published without ruling out protein, they ought to be banned from practicing science, and the peer reviewers of the scientific journal they published it in oughta be excluded from future reviews. What I'm saying is, I'd be VERY surprised the authors or the reviewers didn't consider that possibility, and rule it out.
That said, IMO almost any scientific article published shouldn't be given too much respect until it is reproduced by other scientists.
there was a study doine that had a group go on an 800cal liquid diet and they gained muscle as they were wt training through it so the point is, wt training will preserve muscle...the people in the above study were old, have no "real" muscle to start with probably so had limited muscle to preserve
Glad to hear that about sweet potatoes. I eat one almost everyday. Very filling and delicious. I just bake them, cut them up and bring them to work with me for lunch. Nothing on them. Sometimes mix them with hot peppers. YUM.
