Including foods in your diet that are rich
in potassium is the best way to replace
potassium, but only if it's lost.
Sweating during strenuous exercise,
dieting, diuretic or laxative use,
vomiting, or diarrhea can decrease our
potassium levels and severe losses can
result in heart arrhythmias, confusion,
nerve damage, and paralysis.
If you want to ensure yourself that your
muscles and nerves will function properly
(normal blood pressure),you need to keep
Potassium and Sodium balanced in your
body.
Have you practiced diet rich in potassium
already?
Do you find it helpful?
