Potassium citrate is a very easily absorbed form of potassium. In the West, we consume up to 30 times the recommended intake of salt (sodium). Together with sodium, potassium affects the body's fluid balance as well as the acid/base balance.
We need more potassium the more salt we consume to maintain the balance. The potassium intake should be twice as large as the sodium intake, but in many cases the opposite relationship prevails.
- Potassium contributes to normal muscle function, normal function of the nervous system and the maintenance of normal blood pressure.
When it's hot, we sweat out salts in large quantities and if the sweat becomes sticky, it's time to replenish the salts and fluid needs. You can try more common salt (sodium) first, but if that doesn't help, potassium can work wonders.
If you drink coffee, alcohol and eat salty food, it can be good to top up with potassium. Recommended daily intake for adults is approx. 2.5 grams and for children 0.8-2 grams. We have about 150 to 250 grams of potassium in the body.
Potassium is primarily found inside the cell and sodium outside the cell and is regulated by a "pump mechanism" in the cell where sodium is pumped out of the cell and potassium is pumped in.
