Potassium Chloride, 8oz.

Potassium Chloride

Potassium is an abundant mineral in the human body, which is needed to perform essential physiological processes. It plays a part in the transmission of nerve impulses, muscle contraction, maintenance of Norman renal function, and is especially important for regulating normal heartbeat. Potassium Chloride occurs naturally in many foods, including bananas, potatoes, nuts, and beans; however, it can also be used as a sodium-free alternative to table salt (sodium chloride).

Store at room temperature. Keep out of reach of children.

WARNING: Do not use Potassium Chloride if you have kidney failure, Addison's disease, severe burns or other tissue injury, if you are dehydrated, if you take certain diuretics (water pills), or if you have high levels of potassium in your blood (hyperkalemia). Serious side effects of potassium include uneven heartbeat, muscle weakness or limp feeling, severe stomach pain, and numbness or tingling in your hands, feet, or mouth.

Suggested Use: Adults and children 12 or over, 1 quarter teaspoon daily with fruit or vegetable juice.

Product Benefit: When used as a mineral supplement, Potassium Chloride helps to maintain normal potassium levels in the blood, which is essential for proper cell, nerve, heart, muscle, and kidney function. Studies suggest that a diet supplemented with Potassium Chloride has a similar effect on lowering blood pressure when compared to increased consumption of potassium-rich foods.

Low potassium levels have been linked to a drop in blood sugar, which can lead to headache, weakness, and trembling. Intake of Potassium Chloride, in conjunction with sodium, may provide some immediate relief from these symptoms.*
