Potassium is a vital mineral in human nutrition. It is highly concentrated within cells where it is needed for healthy fluid balance and pressure in the water systems within your body. Fluid retention, heat intolerance, or fatigue can be signs of a lack of potassium.*
Potassium is also needed by your nerves and muscles to function properly. Potassium helps muscles contract, thus muscle weakness may be a sign of a need for more potassium. Potassium is needed within nerves to facilitate nerve transmission. Because your heart is a muscle that is run by nerves, low potassium can be involved with stressed heart function.*
Our unique Potassium Plus supplement contains potassium chelated to malic acid, an important nutrient for muscle energy which also helps to transport potassium into cells. We include taurine to assist nerve function, and like potassium, help support healthy electrical regulation of the heart.*
Potassium is in many fruits, vegetables, and meat. High sources include bananas, avocados, tomatoes, broccoli, potatoes, watermelon, and apricots. Extra supplemental potassium is helpful if you have muscle fatigue, heat intolerance, nerve, and/or heart-related symptoms of one type or another.*
