I'm a mobile software engineer, but love watching science videos. I've just finished a year of physics, now onto biology and I have chosen you both to take me on my journey. Such outstanding videos, how could I not??
Thank you so much for your videos! I’m an RN but reviewing some concepts that I may not have reviewed in the last few years, and I really appreciate that you explain the “Why.” I have trouble remembering things just for the sake of remembering them, if I don’t understand why it’s important to remember that concept in the first place! I’ve watched videos on a few channels but yours was the first to explain a little more in-depth about WHY things are the way they are.
Thanks so much for this Share, I was struggling with horrible heart palps, after 15 months of suffering. I finally was guided to potassium. Started on a good electrolyte about a week ago and im already seeing results. Thank God
Can u help me please 🙏 I have low potassium and low sodium I think my body does not observe salt I like ur comment that's why I am asking u to explain to me a little more ty ❤
Thanks sir! You are an angel for students like me who has to attend college but gets not much benefit! You are a lifesaver for my medschool thanks a lot. We anticipate more and more videos of yours. In future! Please stay healthy
I am doing my PhD in literature, BUT here is where I like to spend whatever free time I have- fascinated by this marvelous thing we call the human body; and this handsome and passionate teacher makes it even more FUN!
Thank you for this great overview of the ATPase pump, functions associated with it , and medications used to manipulate this mechanism. This was a super helpful explanation to me, as a nursing student.
Thank you for being Dr. Mike, it is a real pleasure for me to watch your videos. Wow !!! I can perfectly understand your teaching, so, so useful to me !!!
Dr Mike and Dr Matt superheroes you guys are! I’m a registered nurse in the UK, you two simply makes life so interesting and by assimilating your contents the health sector could be a promising one for the service users. I would love to work with you guys one day!
Thanks a lot for this video. My father suffered a shortage of potassium and fainted. He almost died. Since then I have been doing bits of research of potassium here and there and that's how I found this video. Wonderful clear infomation. Respect from China, with a well deserved subscription.
I've watched all your videos dozens of times over and over to learn the fundamentals. I appreciate how the newer videos really bring concepts together and dive deeper into the physiology and practical application. Thank you a million times!
Absolute Genius Dr Mike. I’m studying 2 be an advanced nursing practitioner & literally all your videos (including this amazing one) make the jargon in books & articles actually understandable & relevant. Absolutely amazing Thank You
Thank you Dr. Mike for explaining the Sodium-Potassium Channel Pump efficiently and effectively. I never completely understand how the Pump works, but thanks to you, I do now.❤
Thank you very much for being such an energetic lecturer. Your lecture must be meant a lot for not only me, but other nursing and med students out there struggling to grab medical concepts. I've watched quite a lot of videos but have to stop and reside here with Dr.Mike! I'm really appreciated.
I'm studying the effects of magnesium on muscle relaxation and hydration. My understanding is that magnesium is a co-factor for enzyme action at the cell wall, facilitating or rather regulating the sodium-potassium pump. I can see magnesium's role in ATP production, used in the sodium-potassium pump, but can't find any other mention of magnesium action or regulation of the sodium-potassium pump. How does it work? As a massage therapist, I have first hand experience with people who are presumably deficient in magnesium, with muscles that palpate similar to bone. I have also seen the dramatic effect that recommended daily intake of magnesium (420mg for men, 320mg for women - elemental) can have, with a change in muscle tone to something mushy and jelly like within a relatively short period of time. I have seen some suggestion that magnesium assists with the sodium-potassium pump to shift water into the cell as K+ is pumped inside, but again, I haven't heard any formal description of this. Can you please describe how magnesium assists with hydration at a molecular level?
I am not even a medical student. 😄But I ve been studying medicine on my own for several years and love watching your videos to refresh things I ve fogotten. Thank you!
This is brilliant and has helped me so much, i am currently doing a masters module (diagnostic interpretation) and you've helped me understand so much more than other videos :)
I found your videos towards the end of my second year in Massage Therapy. And yes, we need to learn the cellular level to all of the physiology of the body. I wish I had found your videos sooner, Dr. Mike you are an outstanding teacher and I thank you SO SO much for your videos and amazing explanations. Also, who needs forearm and hand intrinsics workouts when you can hold SIX markers in one hand :-D LOL So very thankful Cheers from Canada
Well I'm just an old person who wants to understand how I work. Thank you. I'd like to understand better how the Na K atpase pump relates to the NaCa pump. And I thank you for your clear explanations.
Hello Dr. Mike, I'm a huge fan❤ Your videos help me learn concepts in short time and concise manner👌 I saw today you've uploaded a podcast on Electrolytes Physiology, if this video is a part of that podcast then amazing, if not Sir please upload an entire video of Electrolytes Physiology, would be really helpful🙏 Thank you for all these incredible videos🙏❤👍
Hi Dr. Matt & Dr. Mike Is it possible for you to make a video about Gitelman's syndrome ? Thank for this video - I will see it some times to understand this Potassium/sodium connection. I have had this deficiency for some years now and since last year it have going the wrong way. I take 16 x 750mg potassium and 28 grams of sodium/himalaya salt a day - it's a lot, I hope in the future to get it through a port. 🙏
Hello Doctors. I found your videos because I’m trying to figure out what happened to me. The short: I almost died of the Rona. I think the root mechanism of how the virus was killing people has something to do with the spike protein disrupting this ATP pump. I think the disruption causes dehydration and the dehydration causes low oxygen but at the cellular level. I only think this because that was my experience and I am trying to see if there is any scientific validation. Is the ATP pump connected to dehydration? What is the cause/effect connection? Could a virus disrupt this pump? Could cellular dehydration be connected to low oxygen?
You got me thru second year A&P.
And third year advanced pys.
Few months away from finishing my degree.
Ty Dr Mike.
Awesome! Wishing you all the best :)
I'm a mobile software engineer, but love watching science videos.
I've just finished a year of physics, now onto biology and I have chosen you both to take me on my journey.
Such outstanding videos, how could I not??
Now tell me ,the bonding of potassium and try to explain it, thank you

YOU ARE AMAZING!! This is what we need in schools...the connecting of physiology and its uses in health care.

Thank you Dr. Mike- you really have the art for teaching!! Wish more instructors were able to teach like you!!!
This really has blown my mind
This was the most exciting thing I learned in Biochemistry while in Undergrad

Myself👋🏽
this video made me understand this concept so much more now!
This one is the best educational video on this subject I have watched. Thanks.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You are incredible, it all makes so much sense now.
I just love the garage-cleaning comparison. Those also (but not only those) make these lessons memorable. Thanks so much!
the drug examples really solidify the examples. Brilliant!
I love the slide analogy. Pedagogical genius.
Annyeong haseyo Dr. Mike! I'm a fan of yours. Thank you for you non stop TH-cam lectures. It helped me a lot with my nursing school.
wow! excellent presentation about sodium potassium pump!!!!
You're honestly a Legend Dr mike

your videos got me through uk paramedic school!!! please can you do a video on etco2 interpretation of metabolic / respiratory acidosis
23:15 it comes out in our urine. This my problem I think my body does not absorb salt?
Excellent, thanks. I'm really enjoying your style 🙏🙋♀️
How would a sodium blocker help w seizures? When it blocks sodium would it build up inside?
Just took on a chart move that brings the closer and near as the conversation went thanks for some new views
Amazing! Absolutely Amazing! Thank you!
Hello .I really enjoyed your lecture .I have a question why do sodium level needs to be high between 145 to 150 after brain surgery . ? Thanks
Best explanation ever! 👏🙏🙏🙏
If diuretics inhibit the Sodium/Potassium Pump of kidney nephron cells, does it also inhibit the "Pumps" of the nervous and skeletal muscle cells?
Great expanation! Love your channel !
Thank you so much doctor for explaining it is so clearly!
Great video. Which other areas in the body with the diuretic block the channels, or are they specific to kidney?
Thanks, Dr. Mike!
Does diuretics blocks the kidneys reabsorb sodium and other electrolytes?
Exlent explaining sir
best teacher👌👌👌👌
So the cells need constant feed from the outside when it becomes to sodium and potassium?
wow that digoxin part was smooth :)
Hi Dr. Matt & Dr. Mike
Is it possible for you to make a video about Gitelman's syndrome ?
Thank for this video - I will see it some times to understand this Potassium/sodium connection.
I have had this deficiency for some years now and since last year it have going the wrong way.
I take 16 x 750mg potassium and 28 grams of sodium/himalaya salt a day - it's a lot, I hope in the future to get it through a port. 🙏
Does lithium carbonate fall into this family being an alkali metal as well? trying to studying lithium as i take it daily?
Best of the best!
Sodium potassium channel finally explained.
Thank you..great information
Dr. Mike can you please make a video explaining why chocolate is bad for dogs?
good explanation
agree, truly a heaven sent !
I'm huge fan..❤
