@@jamiethompson3851 Not all water pills deplete potassium so I will be cautious in assuming low potassium levels because of a water pill. There are some water pills that are called “potassium sparing” and may rather cause an increase. As to how quickly potassium levels will return to normal will depend on how low your potassium levels are to begin with and also how you are replenishing it. Through diet, through prescription potassium, that sort of thing. Best to check with your doctor on how low you are and then develop a plan. All the best.
Thanks for this, it took me 15 months to figure out its low potassium. Blood work has to show very low before they detect it, by that time i was so depleted in my cells that I'm lucky to be alive! Shortness of breath, heart palps, fatigue, muscle weakness, brain fog. Not good but at least the Holy Spirit guided me to the answers because ER doctors dismissed me as having anxiety
Proper Potassium intake is life changing! I often wonder why potassium isn't discussed as much as other vitamins and minerals. I'm willing to bet people that die young from strokes and heart attacks even at a healthy weight were potassium deficient and didn't even know it.
I just went through hell for about a year. It started with what felt like 24/7 panic attacks. Nothing was slowing my heart down for months. Unfortunately the ER I went to treated me like a dog so I didn't get help for a very long time. Basically my whole body hurt and it feels like your heart can't rest and is working really hard. The ER and I quote said I was the problem and that it was all in my head. The crazy thing is my charts show my potassium was very low every visit to the ER. Long story short it took months just to get enough help to just make it through the day. Luckily my doctor finally helped me after I called for help literally weeping out of frustration and fear for my life. Now that a year has gone by yesterday a doctor gave me a phone appointment and the first thing he said was hey you have extremely low potassium. He connected the dots got me some meds and I feel normal after 24 hours. Now I will never go to the ER again. The doctors were the dumbest smart people and completely full of arrogance. One even said I can't use the ER as a hotel. Who the F says that to someone who's having constant chest pain and is scared out of their minds begging for help. Good God if you live in Bangor maine don't go to st Joseph's ER. If you aren't literally blown in half they don't give a damn. Oh and they locked me in a room for 12 hours because they kept saying I was a mental health case even though I never was. Don't let anyone treat you this way no person deserves it. It messed me up after all of that. I even second guessed myself and thought I was crazy. So yeah potassium go figure.
I can give you a similar list of hospitals you don't want to be caught dead at in Suburban Chicago, Illinois. It's really terrible and something must be done.
I went to the doctor and I siad I had anxiety, muscle spasms, heart palpitations he gave me Antidepressants I went to the schrink and she talks about Pavlov. I went to psychiatric hospital for 4 month because I couldn´t breave anymore. I told them somethings wrong in my body. I told them somethings wrong with my electrolytes. I told them I don´t have an anxiety disorder I have something wrong in my body. They gave me more Antidepressants They gave me more Benzodiazepines That gave my more Pavlov. I said to myself, I will do it myself. I was on my bed for 3 months. I started talking suplements and foods with magnesium, kalium etc.... 3 days and all my problems where gone. I druk to much coca cola and I think I washed all the magnesium and kalium out of my body. Never mind what the cause was never mind how it works. I felt better in 2 weeks. No more anxiety, no more tiredness, no more heart problems no more sleeping problems... It took my 5 years. Did the doctors a bad job? I don´t know.... But they don't listen, they just don't listen....
I was suffering by long Covid for a good year. I had muscle cramps all the time and 0 energy. I tried so many things, but potassium absolutely saved my ass. Incredible nutrient.
Thank you so much for this video! I was afraid of overdosing on potassium, but when I started getting brave about taking it, I began to feel much better. Mainly it relieves intense anxiety and crazy-heart. My head feels clearer, I can think better, and my short-term memory is much better, yay! Thanks again!

Also, in Dr. Jarvis' book Vermont folk medicine, he has an entire chapter about the importance of potassium He'san old school country doctor. He does nonscientific experiments with livestock and, observes the various things that children will eat in the Vermont countryside. Horses will chew the wood in their stalls, and all livestock are bigger and healthier when they are fed apple cider vinegar, which is a great source of potassium. Calf and human height is " shorter" because of the lack of potassium in the Vermont top soil This book is the first natural health book that i ever bought and if i had followed his recommendations, I would be healthier today. I am back on the apple cider vinegar.
After sustained use of apple cider vinegar that disrupts potassium levels, combined with drinking excessive amounts of water, you can develop sodium deficiency.
Brilliant video . I’ve had low potassium for over 20 years . The doctor told me to eat a banana , that was his total advice . Strangely on my recent bloods my potassium came back in the normal range .
caffeine is a diuretic if you consume it all day you might lose certain nutrients as they end up in the urine. the part about kidney stones is interesting. I was fasting so much in a short time i went from slightly overweight to underweight and got a kidney stone. I always wondered what might have caused that. ty for the video
I had high blood pressure. Started taking no salt potassium salt substitute took 1.5 teaspoons a day of that which gave me the daily value of potassium. Pressure normalized in about 3/4 days. My pressure was 182/120 at points. Sheesh 😩
This kind of illness that I have until now. I do not know what is the reason of having low potassium. Before it went so very low, I had a one day LBM on the next days I went to CR almost 6x a day for 2 weeks. I lost weight and from 60 to 54 I feel glad to lost weight and lessen my belly. After 2 weeks I felt pain in my 2 legs and on the next morning I can't stand even raising my legs was so difficult for me. When I move my arms up it cramped and after 7am it returned to normal. After another days it was more difficult because more severe happened I felt I am paralyzed I can;t move my whole body It was hard for me to breath. Again after 8am my normal body returned until I went to check up and doctor checked my blood has low potassium. Even I drink med symptoms returned. I drink pure tomato juice now. I can still feel symptoms but very lite. When you have this illness it will come back again and again.
When I was pregnant I got terrible leg cramps in night potassium tablets one a day completely prevented them. Eating plenty of potassium rich foods did nothing❤❤❤❤❤
My drs just called me to say i have low potassium after blood test :( told me to drink more fruit juice and eat bananas and re test blood in a week. Hope i feel better
1st sign is a little anxiety,then calf cramps the hot flashes and bo going up a little around here is insomnia and vertigo.also your limbs start falling asleep.then it gets worse heart palpitations, drooling face pulling like your having a stroke and unable to walk normal like gant once this stuff goes on for a while you also get convulsions I like to call them awake seizures.anything that upsets you you start shaking uncontrollably paralysis.
Why can't we buy Potassium supplements that are adequate for meeting the RDA of almost 5 GRAMS per day ? A normal Potassium supplement contains about 1/2 or less of the amount of Potassium in an average banana. Eating some table salt, a banana or other Potassium rich food, and taking a Magnesium supplement stops my AFIB sometimes in a few minutes. I wonder why cardiologists don't recommend that for occasional AFIB more often ?
My arms n legs are sore quiet often for no reason like a cramping dry pain. Really need it to go. My doctor has no clue what it is but I'm guessing potassium
I have had lung infection for over a year. My lungs were so loud with rumbling, crackling and popping and the doctors were telling me that my x-rays were ok. I figured out that it was potassium after taking quite a bit of time studying the lung. Predisone depletes the potassium. Low potassium slows down the bottom function of the lung. I'll inform my doctor on my follow up appointment.
Since this year I have problem with that. Lately I was in a hospital. Heart problems, problems with breathing, muscle pain, headaches, feeling like I'm about to faint.
Thank you for this very good info. Potassium is so important for the heart ! Most people don’t know it. I had 2 x much to low potassium, my heart was out of control. Scary.
You are very welcome and I'm sorry to hear of your low potassium issues. Since you mentioned the you "had" low potassium, I'm believing it has been resolved now. Wish you all the best.

@@sandyshores915 Sorry to hear Sandy. Although potassium is essential for correct blood clotting also. Too low and you will form clots. I think everyone suffering long covid is having issues with potassium regulation. 🤔😔
I went to the ER a few days ago due to sickness. They found out the my potassium was really low, I had to get some potassium through my IV and my heart rate was high as well, the also put heart monitors on me. But I went because I was sick and have been running a fever but they said it was probably just a virus and they didn’t even treat me for it lol. 😂
My question is 3 times now in last week after I eat a meal my heart starts to cramp It’s like a severe heartburn type of feeling but like idk I sweat x2 compared regular people no one can argue that u would have to see it to believe it kinda I eat spinach but I think I need to uptake my potassium levels Man if I injure my heart from something so basic I’m gonna be upset at myself What’s a good potassium supplement to look into anyone on top of their head can message here ?
It’s been 6 months but hopefully you read this. I bought a bag of potassium from Bulk Supplements on Amazon. It’s been working out great for me. I hope that helps.
I'm having chest pains and nerve pain since 2 months. I was absolutely fine and when one day started having chest pain... It scares me a lot... I have done my ECG echocardiogram endoscopy and what not... Doctor said my heart was fine.... All the doctors are saying that I have in society and anxiety is causing me e these weird pains all over my body and specially my chest pain.. somewhat I was not ready to believe them... I I'm having extremely dry lips... It's sometimes even bleed when the skin comes off, kind of dry skin. And people tell me that I looked very unwell... I got my vitamin test done.... And my vitamin d level is 12.... Dr never asked me for a bit test but can my chest pain and other pain all around my body and specially my wrist and my feet can be a sign of vitamin d deficiency... Can vitamin d deficiency at a level of 12 be so severe Also I have had breathing issues now a days... Strange tightness in the body. ... Lump in the throat feeling... And upset stomach... And I'm also having lump in the throat feeling.. can dis be due to vit d or calcium deficiency or iron or potassium bdeficiency? I have done my B12 test also which are normal.... Last month I had my ovarian cyst surgery for which my CBC was done but it was also normal... For now I have sent my samples for iron testing
@@Aesthetic_leen ok that can cause chest spasms, spasms in your throat and a lot of other symptoms. Are you part of any group on Facebook? I can suggest one to you.
I'm going through that right now I think you have a potassium deficiency problem when I took potassium as soon as it's touched my tongue the arrhythmia stopped and the shaking
Potassium is good for the nerves ...good 2 know Low potassium can increase blood pressure Kidney stones can develop with low potassium Low potassium causes High blood sugar increases cortisol insulin resistance Breathing difficulties in chest/abdomen shortness of breath Irregular heartbeat
Kwaku, where can I get a 100% Vitamin C to buy; am not talking about Ascorbic Acid. The pure only comes in oral liquid or injection, I do really need your help.
Ive been intaking potassium tablets to increase my potassium every single day , its like a maintenance at if i dont intake my body feels so weak, its been 7 yrs since this happened to me and i got hospitalized many times bcuz of low potassium , the doctors never guessed what isbthe reason for repeated low potassium in my body they just said to eat many banana , inow i cant survive or even live without potassium intake! I always get nervous very easily my body reacts on its own to get shocked and feel the electrics from my feet to hands unto all over my body , i just dont know what is happenning to me and if i am the only one having this kind of sickness , now i cant run , cant climb up stairs , i cant lift heavy , i cant get even get angry cuz my potassium gets low easily , omg its so sad pls pm if anybody ia like me
The shocks sound just like what I’ve had. I started taking vitamin B1 -100mg CAPSULES from Solgar and same brand sublingual (under the tongue) B12. That took the shocking completely away. I hope that helps.
One year ago I was diagnosed with both benine hyperplasia frequent urination could this also drop your potassium depleting potassium I think it has thank for the video Barruch Hashem 🕎
There are differences for everyone. The potassium the sign i saw on constipation, says help. The items that help with potassium that stands to reason, the bratt or bland diet for the flue? etc. the bannanas the rice, boiled chicken. etc. the diet can cause constipation and restoring the bodies reduced potassium from vomitting or diarehia. the other potassium is orange juice that can cause diarehia for some people. everyone is different. if some one is mobile and can consume foods, etc. they can use the prune juice, milk of magnesia per the instructions and other things like glyercin suppositories, deep into the rectum so it is ot expelled too by the reflex response. deeper into the rectum gives the suppository the ability to melt and do its job. the other options are like the fleet enemas. that is one of the most uncomfortable forms. keeping the bowels flowing, is necessary in health. it used to be believed that when someone got sick they would use enema's, for any treatment, thinking they were cleaning the body out sooner. potassium slows the heart rate, which usually increases when a person has a fever or is sick. so it can be very dangerous also, as some people think taking alot of something, will help them sooner and that is not the case, vitamins are as dangerous as medications and is why people should be checked or have a primary care physician with the necessary tests, for theirr individual needs. there has to be the ability for people to do this. Cost, there are many ways to reduce cost. better health is thought to be more productive. I am not in a hundred percent agreement with th video above. However everyone has their opinions and what pertains to them per their environments, foods, etc. so medicine and vitamins, etc. are per areas, often times along with consumptions that are different needs for most people, as everyone is a individual. It is good to get a good base line, per the physician, for any individual, and have tests ordered done and read by professionals, trained in the medical testing that helps individuals, to get a good professional idea for their individual needs. There are many vitamins that compliment other vitamins. foods that compliment other foods, etc. and following instructions, allergies, etc. are always very important. again, foods can be as dangerous as chemicals, to some people, etc. everyone is different. there are many arts, many studies, and many that have been placed into different religions also per regions and discoveries, however all of which have a place in my opinion, in health care. that have proven out comes, per any art of medicine, that is what medicine, regardless of the different type of medicine, and art. in the constipation if a person ahs not gone to the bathroom in a day or two days, to start the regimen, and if it becomes a real problem to seek professional advise, at that time. i am not a dr. and can only lend my individual advise that many have their own opinions, and what works for them, may not work for others. etc. fibers and fluid intake, are also balances, and per conditions, of different individuals, anyone with a professional health care advisor has to consult their own health care professional advisor per their conditions. dehydration is a very serious issue especially during this time of year. the warmer months of the year. and everything is of course, cost contingent too.
Coconut water is the best..600mg in one cup. It blows bananas and avocados away. Spinach and leafy greens like spinach and kale. You can read studies on coconut water fun fact in wars, veitnam, korea they used coconut water for plasma during surgeries in emergencies when no access to pllasma. The no sugar added water has the exact same makeup as human plasma. Avocados nothing beats coconut water. Clinical studies show drinking it reduces blood pressure average of 14 points, better than prescriptions when people drink 16 in, 1 cups a day for 6 weeks. Good brands C20 and Amy and Brians...do not get coco via or coco vitait tastes awful
@@tigertalks1567 Fresh coconut water is better. Coconut water you purchase at the store has roughly 470 mg of potassium, it is not the same quality as fresh coconut water.
Thank you! This video was very helpful and informative. Lol! My PCP prescribed Potassium. I swear that thing is so big and fat. It was designed to make you gag. I needed to know it’s benefits. I watched as I prepared to swallow it down. Very motivating!
I guess I should eat more banana in the next one week to see how my potassium level goes....heard it also causes twitches so hopefully these my twitches and hyper contraction of my stomach is due to low potassium
i wd take magnesium, lots of it, calcium causes the muscles to contract, magnesium causes them to relax; the meds for tourette syndrome contains magnesium! look up dr carolyn dean MD, she says that magnesium is North americans MOST deficient mineral! take magnesium and B vitamins, especially niacin, at night.
I used potassium supplements like Dr berg electrolyte mix..which was OK on keto but my blood pressure is extremely sensitive...for maybe 10 years I've been struggling with sodium intake and elevated bp or spikes...even on 900 to 1500 sodium daily...my bp hasn't started stabilizing until I juiced beets...but beets are not good for kidneys...high in oxylates...but what finally started helping was pressed coconut water..life changing...even my bleeding gums significantly reduced..from over 20 years of gum bleeding.....start with 16 ounces daily and add or reduce after 4 weeks and testing bp...they said I had anxiety...i had bp spikes that triggered signs of anxiety...but it's not anxiety..it's high bp...drop sodium levels to 150 to 300 grams or less per meal...x 3 meals a day...and boost up your potassium...with coconut water...300 to 900 sodium daily 3700 grams potassium daily..the potassium has to 3 tones higher than sodium to keep balance..oh and I was taking 400 to 600 magnesium for at least 7 years....the potassium sodium balance for me was the biggest factor..and I test bp on a dinamap v100 machine...500 on ebay..or with hand pump method...
When you go to your incompetent and arrogant doctor, make sure that you ask them to do an intra cellular test on your magnesium levels because my lame female doctor said my blood work was normal from the tests done at the ER. Magnesium is stored IN the cell so a normal test won't work. But my tests weren't normal even though it said they were. I had fatigue, palpitations, thought I was going to die from taking Colestipol. My doctor would not order any specific tests until she would see me a week later. She knew I took laxatives for 2 goddamn years and the Colestipol. Also ask your doctor to do a nutrient mineral test

Eating some table salt, a banana or other Potassium rich food, and taking a Magnesium supplement stops my AFIB sometimes in a few minutes. I wonder why cardiologists don't recommend that for occasional AFIB more often ?
bc if everyone knew this, took this, they wouldnt show up to the doc office and the doc wd go out of business, follow the money!
@@Lauren-vd4qe BINGO
Because it would heal people. They're criminals.
have Afif, on Apixaban. I fear death. Please which Magnesium do you take, which potassium?
Use cream of tartar.
High in P
Cheap also 😂😂😂
GREAT VIDEO❗
LOVED IT, I LEARNED SO MUCH❗
Glad it was helpful and thanks for watching.
My arms n legs are sore quiet often for no reason like a cramping dry pain. Really need it to go. My doctor has no clue what it is but I'm guessing potassium
You also need salt 🧂. The statement that salt is bad is a lie.
Thanks for the useful information 👍❤
I have had lung infection for over a year. My lungs were so loud with rumbling, crackling and popping and the doctors were telling me that my x-rays were ok. I figured out that it was potassium after taking quite a bit of time studying the lung. Predisone depletes the potassium. Low potassium slows down the bottom function of the lung. I'll inform my doctor on my follow up appointment.
Yesss it happened to me
Thanks for the info! Well done, sir!
Most welcome. Thanks for watching!
Since this year I have problem with that. Lately I was in a hospital. Heart problems, problems with breathing, muscle pain, headaches, feeling like I'm about to faint.
very good
thanks for information
My Pleasure!
Thank you for this very good info. Potassium is so important for the heart ! Most people don’t know it. I had 2 x much to low potassium, my heart was out of control. Scary.
You are very welcome and I'm sorry to hear of your low potassium issues. Since you mentioned the you "had" low potassium, I'm believing it has been resolved now. Wish you all the best.
Was your blood preasure high
What's a good amount of potassium citrate to supplement with? I have HBP and a swollen prostate, even type 2 diabetes.

Miss Virgo, the Holy Spirit is thriving inside you. 🌠🌠❤️❤️
I had diarhea for 3 weeks from a multivitamin I took. Now I have EVERY symptom and quite frankly its debilitating.
What type of potassium supplement do you recommend?
u can buy 60/40 Pot/sodium at the supermarket to replace table salt
@@WillyEckaslike tried googling it don't know what you mean by that. Maybe that's why I have all these illness, because of how FUCKEN STUPID I am.
@@almaveronicagutierrezdevel7973
"morton lite salt"....u can find it orsimilar products in large supermarkets in the section where they sell salt...50% sodium chloride..50% potassium chloride .....
❤😂 by saying 40/60 he meant the percent of potassium to sodium . I recommend GREY CELTIC SALT (little diamonds ) have little bit every morning with glass of water 😊 It will hydrate Your mitochondria as well ( because of drinking salty water on empty stomach )
@@almaveronicagutierrezdevel7973

Imperative that you mention first heart arrhythmias. My potassium was 2.8!!! The level of 2.5 is cardiac arrest.
I'm at 3.1 in the er now
@@sandyshores915 Praying you're ok Sandy
🙏✝️❤
@@maranatha8148 I Madd it it was a blood clot from covid not potassium
@@sandyshores915 Sorry to hear Sandy. Although potassium is essential for correct blood clotting also. Too low and you will form clots. I think everyone suffering long covid is having issues with potassium regulation. 🤔😔
@@sandyshores915 So glad you're still with us. 🙏
I went to the ER a few days ago due to sickness. They found out the my potassium was really low, I had to get some potassium through my IV and my heart rate was high as well, the also put heart monitors on me. But I went because I was sick and have been running a fever but they said it was probably just a virus and they didn’t even treat me for it lol. 😂
Oh wow! At least you got to take care of the more serious issue. All the best.
What about potassium levels for ckd?
GOOD VIDEO

My question is 3 times now in last week after I eat a meal my heart starts to cramp
It’s like a severe heartburn type of feeling but like idk I sweat x2 compared regular people no one can argue that u would have to see it to believe it kinda I eat spinach but I think I need to uptake my potassium levels
Man if I injure my heart from something so basic I’m gonna be upset at myself
What’s a good potassium supplement to look into anyone on top of their head can message here ?
It’s been 6 months but hopefully you read this. I bought a bag of potassium from Bulk Supplements on Amazon. It’s been working out great for me. I hope that helps.
Potassium glucanate is best. It's only 99.
I take 3 in the morning and 3 at night..

I have low potassium and i forgety pills back home i have some herbsl potassium pills and a blood test waiting on the results from the clinic
I'm having chest pains and nerve pain since 2 months. I was absolutely fine and when one day started having chest pain... It scares me a lot... I have done my ECG echocardiogram endoscopy and what not... Doctor said my heart was fine.... All the doctors are saying that I have in society and anxiety is causing me e these weird pains all over my body and specially my chest pain.. somewhat I was not ready to believe them... I I'm having extremely dry lips... It's sometimes even bleed when the skin comes off, kind of dry skin. And people tell me that I looked very unwell... I got my vitamin test done.... And my vitamin d level is 12.... Dr never asked me for a bit test but can my chest pain and other pain all around my body and specially my wrist and my feet can be a sign of vitamin d deficiency... Can vitamin d deficiency at a level of 12 be so severe
Also I have had breathing issues now a days... Strange tightness in the body. ... Lump in the throat feeling... And upset stomach... And I'm also having lump in the throat feeling.. can dis be due to vit d or calcium deficiency or iron or potassium bdeficiency? I have done my B12 test also which are normal.... Last month I had my ovarian cyst surgery for which my CBC was done but it was also normal... For now I have sent my samples for iron testing
Do you think you could have GERD (chronic acid reflux)? I believe low vitamin D can cause chest pains. They did studies on it.
@@Versiongurl yes .. I have been diagnosed with Larypharygeal reflux disease yesterday
@@Aesthetic_leen ok that can cause chest spasms, spasms in your throat and a lot of other symptoms. Are you part of any group on Facebook? I can suggest one to you.
@@Aesthetic_leen I have this too and potassium deficiency
I'm going through that right now I think you have a potassium deficiency problem when I took potassium as soon as it's touched my tongue the arrhythmia stopped and the shaking
Thank you for helping me understand what could be my problem
My Pleasure!

Ive been intaking potassium tablets to increase my potassium every single day , its like a maintenance at if i dont intake my body feels so weak, its been 7 yrs since this happened to me and i got hospitalized many times bcuz of low potassium , the doctors never guessed what isbthe reason for repeated low potassium in my body they just said to eat many banana , inow i cant survive or even live without potassium intake! I always get nervous very easily my body reacts on its own to get shocked and feel the electrics from my feet to hands unto all over my body , i just dont know what is happenning to me and if i am the only one having this kind of sickness , now i cant run , cant climb up stairs , i cant lift heavy , i cant get even get angry cuz my potassium gets low easily , omg its so sad pls pm if anybody ia like me
The shocks sound just like what I’ve had. I started taking vitamin B1 -100mg CAPSULES from Solgar and same brand sublingual (under the tongue) B12. That took the shocking completely away. I hope that helps.
Sounds like you may have adrenal issues

With a 3.1 potassium level, would this cause

That's very low.
3.30 potassium level mean?
There are differences for everyone. The potassium the sign i saw on constipation, says help. The items that help with potassium that stands to reason, the bratt or bland diet for the flue? etc. the bannanas the rice, boiled chicken. etc. the diet can cause constipation and restoring the bodies reduced potassium from vomitting or diarehia. the other potassium is orange juice that can cause diarehia for some people. everyone is different. if some one is mobile and can consume foods, etc. they can use the prune juice, milk of magnesia per the instructions and other things like glyercin suppositories, deep into the rectum so it is ot expelled too by the reflex response. deeper into the rectum gives the suppository the ability to melt and do its job. the other options are like the fleet enemas. that is one of the most uncomfortable forms. keeping the bowels flowing, is necessary in health. it used to be believed that when someone got sick they would use enema's, for any treatment, thinking they were cleaning the body out sooner. potassium slows the heart rate, which usually increases when a person has a fever or is sick. so it can be very dangerous also, as some people think taking alot of something, will help them sooner and that is not the case, vitamins are as dangerous as medications and is why people should be checked or have a primary care physician with the necessary tests, for theirr individual needs. there has to be the ability for people to do this. Cost, there are many ways to reduce cost. better health is thought to be more productive. I am not in a hundred percent agreement with th video above. However everyone has their opinions and what pertains to them per their environments, foods, etc. so medicine and vitamins, etc. are per areas, often times along with consumptions that are different needs for most people, as everyone is a individual. It is good to get a good base line, per the physician, for any individual, and have tests ordered done and read by professionals, trained in the medical testing that helps individuals, to get a good professional idea for their individual needs. There are many vitamins that compliment other vitamins. foods that compliment other foods, etc. and following instructions, allergies, etc. are always very important. again, foods can be as dangerous as chemicals, to some people, etc. everyone is different. there are many arts, many studies, and many that have been placed into different religions also per regions and discoveries, however all of which have a place in my opinion, in health care. that have proven out comes, per any art of medicine, that is what medicine, regardless of the different type of medicine, and art. in the constipation if a person ahs not gone to the bathroom in a day or two days, to start the regimen, and if it becomes a real problem to seek professional advise, at that time. i am not a dr. and can only lend my individual advise that many have their own opinions, and what works for them, may not work for others. etc. fibers and fluid intake, are also balances, and per conditions, of different individuals, anyone with a professional health care advisor has to consult their own health care professional advisor per their conditions. dehydration is a very serious issue especially during this time of year. the warmer months of the year. and everything is of course, cost contingent too.
if you low of potassium,just bite one chunk of potassium lol
Excellent
Thanks.
Great information and easy to understand!💕
Glad you found it helpful.
Please give us list of high potassium food we can take. Thank you
Banana 422 mg , Brussel sprouts 1 cup 342 mg , watermelon 2 wedges 640 mg , Salmon 3 ounces 309 mg, small potato 716 mg.
Coconut water is the best..600mg in one cup. It blows bananas and avocados away. Spinach and leafy greens like spinach and kale. You can read studies on coconut water fun fact in wars, veitnam, korea they used coconut water for plasma during surgeries in emergencies when no access to pllasma. The no sugar added water has the exact same makeup as human plasma. Avocados nothing beats coconut water. Clinical studies show drinking it reduces blood pressure average of 14 points, better than prescriptions when people drink 16 in, 1 cups a day for 6 weeks. Good brands C20 and Amy and Brians...do not get coco via or coco vitait tastes awful
@@tigertalks1567 Fresh coconut water is better.
Coconut water you purchase at the store has roughly 470 mg of potassium, it is not the same quality as fresh coconut water.
Potatoes , peanut , losalt ; is salt with natrium and potassium , banana, orange I used these for compensation, my colon in gone ( surgery, crohn)

Thank you! This video was very helpful and informative. Lol! My PCP prescribed Potassium. I swear that thing is so big and fat. It was designed to make you gag. I needed to know it’s benefits. I watched as I prepared to swallow it down. Very motivating!
Crush it and add to yogurt. I couldn't swallow it either.
My huge potassium pill dissolves instantly in the mouth. Makes it much easier to swallow..
what to take to counter this
Thanks

I have increase urination and high bp...
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, I REALLY NEEDED TO KNOW THIS ❤ I CAN GET BETTER NOW❤
Great video 😃👍
Thank you.
I guess I should eat more banana in the next one week to see how my potassium level goes....heard it also causes twitches so hopefully these my twitches and hyper contraction of my stomach is due to low potassium
bananas are high in sugar. Better to take potassium pills
i wd take magnesium, lots of it, calcium causes the muscles to contract, magnesium causes them to relax; the meds for tourette syndrome contains magnesium! look up dr carolyn dean MD, she says that magnesium is North americans MOST deficient mineral! take magnesium and B vitamins, especially niacin, at night.
Not enough potassium in bananas I've heard
Thank you for sharing 🌸🩵🧡

I used potassium supplements like Dr berg electrolyte mix..which was OK on keto but my blood pressure is extremely sensitive...for maybe 10 years I've been struggling with sodium intake and elevated bp or spikes...even on 900 to 1500 sodium daily...my bp hasn't started stabilizing until I juiced beets...but beets are not good for kidneys...high in oxylates...but what finally started helping was pressed coconut water..life changing...even my bleeding gums significantly reduced..from over 20 years of gum bleeding.....start with 16 ounces daily and add or reduce after 4 weeks and testing bp...they said I had anxiety...i had bp spikes that triggered signs of anxiety...but it's not anxiety..it's high bp...drop sodium levels to 150 to 300 grams or less per meal...x 3 meals a day...and boost up your potassium...with coconut water...300 to 900 sodium daily 3700 grams potassium daily..the potassium has to 3 tones higher than sodium to keep balance..oh and I was taking 400 to 600 magnesium for at least 7 years....the potassium sodium balance for me was the biggest factor..and I test bp on a dinamap v100 machine...500 on ebay..or with hand pump method...
I heard coconut water was bad for the kidneys
@@Caleb-xf5yn cant imagine how,,people all over the carribean islands drink that every day..its the perfect electrolyte...

Crazy i found out i need to make sure of enough potassium from astrology reading
Really? Wow
When you go to your incompetent and arrogant doctor, make sure that you ask them to do an intra cellular test on your magnesium levels because my lame female doctor said my blood work was normal from the tests done at the ER. Magnesium is stored IN the cell so a normal test won't work. But my tests weren't normal even though it said they were. I had fatigue, palpitations, thought I was going to die from taking Colestipol. My doctor would not order any specific tests until she would see me a week later. She knew I took laxatives for 2 goddamn years and the Colestipol. Also ask your doctor to do a nutrient mineral test
I’m very high in potassium, I don’t know how to lower it
