Two weeks supplementing salt/potassium

[Guest guest]

It has been two weeks now since I started supplementing with 1200 of potassium

and half teaspoon salt with water two times a day.

These were my lab results before starting supplementation:

Sodium: 138.0 mEq/L (135-145)

Potassium 3.96 mEq/L (3.5-5)

I guess it would be about time to test again, however I had an stomach upset

last week and I was vomiting and having diarrhea, besides not eating and not

supplementing properly. Therefore I wonder if it won't be better to wait a bit

longer, perhaps one more week?

Also I have swollen a bit, it feels as if I have more cellulitis and the legs

feel heavier… I suspect this is water retention. Is this O.K or it indicates

something is not quite right with the doses of salt/potassium I'm taking?

Thanks,

You might try iodoral, or order Potasium/iodide by Source Naturals - Table salt is not (to my understanding) the way to go, They do talk about celtic and sea salt though. (I order ioderal through Amazon)

There is a lot of information about this on the cancer sites and on CURE ZONE.com as they think iodine/sodium is helpful in that area.

I am changing course thought now that I have proper blood work and have low Iron and Hight RT3

Are you increasing sodium for Thyroid?

If so it is the Iodized salt intake that is important

Sea salt is not Iodized

This is a great article on the sea salt vs iodized salt

No, as far I understand, sodium and potassium are low because of adrenal

problems.

There is quite a bit of controversy about taking iodine (I have hashis), so I am

not supplementing iodine.
