Ann, I rook potassium for say 10 yrs, and my huisband took it for 30 yrs. It used to be measured in Meq s I took one pill named Kaon. We also took Liquid for some reason Dr. Rukes changed and gave us the liquid. He was a research doctor and taught at San Francisco State University. He said that people did not need salt, they needed Potasium. I hav3e never met aq doctor who knew this. Some of them actually think it is dangerous . I guess there is a potasium that will kill you but it is very strong I think. The stuff in drug store or the health food store comes in 100 mg. pills or caps. A lot of people think eat Bananas, that is really a joke. Dr Rukes said it would take 20lbs of banabas to do anything. I would like to know about dosage. and meq vs. mg. sharon

It has been said that your body can absorb vitamins and minerals from food sources better than from pills, so you may get more "usable" potassium into your body from a banana than from a high dosage pill... Something to think about.

 

Also, I would seriously question that doctor, since all humans need salt to survive. The issue would be whether you are getting enough from your food. One would need the right balance of salt and potassium for proper hydration; too much salt would cause bloating as far as I know, and too much potassium would cause dehydration.

 

Of course, the amounts would vary from person to person, and I guess everyone is different in this regard.
