Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Andy told me potassium supplements are fine, just take with food and you will not have a problem. We gave our little 50 lber 300 mg extra per day. Also potatoes, melons and bananas have a ton of potassium. Re: wanted to clarify if potassium is good for low adrenals?? - Take care with the Potassium. Nanci. Just in case you hadn't heard this, be very careful with the potassium, ok? If you take too much, it can produce dangerous heart arhythmias. Never take more than maybe 1/2 tsp of potassium salt per day. The potassium is just one of the electrolytes. I'd suggest that instead of just the potassium, you to a total electrolyte replacement. That includes, sodium+chloride (table salt), potassium + chloride (lite salt), calcium, magnesium, baking soda, sulfate (but only if you are low in sulfate), and it's a good idea to mix vitamin C in with all that.

After a few days chelating I would notice some symptoms getting worse.. ONe was a fatigue which felt like it related to my heart... sort of a drawn fatigue ... With the added potassium that has gone... My saliva adrenal test did not show as too bad , and I always got sensitve to the herbs.. My doctor was about to try the cortef but I feel now it is mostly due to lack of minerals. and vitamins.. amino acids etc.. I also think the low potassium could be behind my low stomach acid as it got lower after doing chelation... Potassium is needed to make Hycrochloric acid.. nanci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
