Rewarded Review

Since using this high quality Potassium Gluconate powder, along with NOW Magnesium Bisglycinate and my own mineral salt flakes, my blood pressure has normalised and leg muscles no longer cramp after intense exercise. Muscle strength has also gone up along with reduced anxiety and better brain function (when used with the Mag and mineral salt flakes...they all work together from my experience). All adds up to this powder providing a lot of health benefits, especially cardiac and muscle function. The powder is easy to take in a little warm water (to dissolve) along with the Mag + mineral salt flakes, before exercise or bed. I just use the recommend dose but, I also try to get plenty of Potassium from foods as well. As modern humans use quite a lot of Potassium each day and it is important to ensure adequate dietary Potassium levels to avoid muscle and cardiac symptoms (which can arise when Sodium, Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium levels become diminished or unbalanced, through excessive sweat, urination, ir inadequate dietary intake, especially on a lower carbohydrate diet (which may result in reduced intake of Potassium, and also Magnesium and Calcium, all necessary for healthy cardiac and muscle function) Since giving up all processed foods in recent months (often very high in mineral Sodium), my Sodium:Potassium ratio has improved, a good thing on its own. However, being on a reduced carbohydrate diet, which may be lower in Potassium (less plants & fruits, typically a great source of Potassium) Potassium Gluconate is a safe composition to take, for me, based on available research (when compared to cheaper forms of Potassium powders) This Potassium Gluconate powder is worth trying, if you aren't consuming enough dietary Potassium and if you need to improve blood pressure on a western diet (where most people have too much Sodium relative to dietary Potassium + Magnesium ...they need to be in balance with each other to avoid cardiac and muscle symptoms. The package size is quite large at 450g so will last several months, great value for money if you want to avoid Potassium deficiency, and the symptoms that come with it
