Get real ! You cant get enough Potassium from food, unless you eat bushels of high potassium foods. Taking Potassium saved, and continues to save my life.
So tired of some channels saying opposite of other channels ….”take this …no don’t take this ….no ,take it ,your body needs it….no don’t take it cause it’s doesn’t do anything etc etc “… Guess that’s why so many people end up in the hospital low on magnesium and potassium?
The reason no one can agree is because we need to start looking at the person instead of the remedy. Everyone is different. Until we all understand that, nobody will agree on anything.
I agree with you whole heartedly. Too much analysis on picky points and not enough on the wider spectrum. Everyone is different and has different requirements so don't over think the subject just stick to a well balanced diet and ignore all the conflicting information. That's the best way for all. 😁
If you can't figure out what you need. Start with your diet. Take CoQ10, Vit C, Vit D3, Vit K, a good B Complex, Zinc, Quercetin, Magnesium, Potassium (if needed). From Dr. Ken Berry
So, about 3 months back I just finished a long course of Antibiotics and obviously that messed up my good bacteria in my gut. After just finishing the course I developed extreme muscle weakness, was out breath all the time and had pins and needles sensation in my nerves. I have been working out since 2011 and have done multiple marathons so never faced these issues previously. This issue just came overnight and I felt extremely heartbroken not knowing what happened to me. I went online did some research and came across potassium deficiency symptoms. I started consuming a lot of fresh coconut water and just in 2 days I was back to 100% and felt normal. I could run and lift again without any muscle ache and breathing got a lot better too. Honestly, no doctor could have easily found it so, sometime you have to do your own research and fix yourself. This video is really helpful to understand why my body was not absorbing Potassium. Please take care of your vitamins and minerals and stay healthy!
Well, my friend has been taking the Potassium for years he adjusts the amount depending on his blood pressure readings. Gets rid of the fluid, hence the pressure goes down he is nearly 80, no pharmaceuticals ever, no jabs, only Naturopathy..
Yeah, @Ken S, there is a mechanism that potassium can do that and if blood sugar is high, it's a huge help to bring that down. You just want to watch this video to figure out if you're leaning too far on the anabolic side or not. Because if you are, even if potassium is helping you lower blood sugar, it could create more significant problems. th-cam.com/video/bhYhU2_LSfM/w-d-xo.html Let us know hot it goes.
It has helped me here too..... but eating beets to avoid bananas seems to be tanking my calcium.... thinking it is likely an oxolate issue, but it seems like the low sugar high potassium options are all high oxolate.

Yeah, that's why we don't use potassium to improve symptoms unless we know where someone's body chemistry is. When it's truly needed, it can be a huge help, but when it pushes someone the wrong direction, it can push them hard in that wrong direction.
It is difficult to get 5 grams of potassium a day if you are trying to eat Ketovorish diet & avoding oxalates too. I had a look at various minerals & vitamins our daily need for them. It is impossible to get enough of everything from just food. No wonder we are all struggling with various health issues. Sigh.
Potassium chloride was giving me acute muscle pain around my neck. Potassium bicarbonate is much better for me, but when I start getting muscle pain I stop taking it.

I don’t know, I find this video so confusing, all over the place, just looking at extremes, too much potassium/too little potassium. He keeps shifting from one extreme to the other, can’t keep track of what he’s talking about.
Just for example... 16 to 18 cups of cooked broccoli( 228 mg /8oz) daily would get you to about 4000 mg daily ( lower end of RDA). That would be about 8 to 9 pounds of broccoli daily if that's all you eat for potassium intake. There are others listed that are much higher like spinach and chard but are high in oxalic acid. Potato at 600mg would need about 3 pounds daily.
Most vegetables has substantial levels of potassium. I once concluded that if you eat 700 g of vegetables, you get enough of potassium. That's pretty much of those, though. So I guess most of us get less than we need. I use a "sodium reduced" salt, with 30 % potassium chloride, in an effort to balance sodium and potassium. It's actually a mineral salt, and I think it tastes good. That don't give enough potassium, because I use to9 little salt. But I think it helps avoid sqewing the balance too much.
Potassium citrate has lowered by blood pressure. I already have low pressure... Ive only taken about 1440 mg. Per day, along with food I need Potassium citrate to keep kidney stones from forming. Any suggestions?
Yeah, watch this video to see where you are. Maybe potassium is okay for you and maybe you're not already leaning too anabolic: th-cam.com/video/bhYhU2_LSfM/w-d-xo.html But improving kidney function is another option. You can learn more here: th-cam.com/video/fQ-rLR9N5cI/w-d-xo.html Let us know how it goes.
Chanca piedra is amazing for kidney stones You likely need to get more alkaline, coconut oil, chlorophyll etc Potassium bicarbonate is likely your best bet for a form of potassium for preventing kidney stones
Unpasteurized apple cider vinegar Get more magnesium, magnesium glycinate is your best bet,I like Drs best brand Also boran ,borax to stimulate the parathyroid glands to make more calcitonin,which signals calcium to stay in bones and out of soft tissues
B1/thiamine can at the 300mg daily level completely reverse kidney disease in 90 days, taking people with end stage kidney disease to absolutely no kidney disease by lowering their albumin levels in their urine by 39% on average Do you experience symptoms of low blood pressure ? Or does your doctor just use the low value to fear monger ? Because the yanomami indians had basically lifelong blood pressure of 95/60 ,and were incredibly healthy,mostly as a consequence of getting like/ 10 grams a day of potassium and practically no sodium The reader should remember that for the Yanomami Indians, normal blood pressure averages out at 95/60 and does not increase with age. Try comparing this with the AMA western ‘normal’ blood pressure of 120/80, which then goes up in incremental steps as you ingest more sodium and lose more potassium while getting older. Of course, the medical apologists will claim this is because we are more civilized, have evolved, and are thus ‘different’, but rest assured this is pathetic rubbish. The only significant difference between the Yanomami and Americans or Australians, is that the Yanomami are stuffed full of healthy potassium, while we are stuffed full of toxic sodium. Best of luck
I have had insomnia since I was a kid and I have loose stools or constipation, Anxiety, Tachycardia. I am getting open heart surgery in a few weeks for mitral valve regurgitation and my lab results show anion gap is 4. I googled what that meant and it said low potassium,that's why I'm here.

@abel4776 I wrote the comment 4 months ago. In June, I had mitral valve surgery and wish that I didn't. Now, I need to take asprin for the rest of my life because the surgery causes Afib, which can cause blood clots where the ring was placed. I don't know if I'll ever feel normal again, it's taken a lot out of me.
Everyone eats different. Hence get different body reactions. Each person may need different things. I think that is what he is saying. Depending on how you eat & live, depends on your needs.
Make sure you get enough. To little is hard on the heart. An average of 2700 mg daily. That is quit a bit to have to intake. I take a little potassium chloride every morning and since I have been doing it I feel better.
Great content! Thank you! Unfortunately our whole foods these days do not contain the proper amount of nutrients, so relying on diet alone is not adequate.
Everyone is different. I supplemented with way too much confirmed by blood test and feel awful. When i took it I always felt like I had to pee which was probably my body telling me to flush it out.
or youy were pushing yourself too anabolic like we talk about in this video. In an overly anabolic state, the body will send more water to the kidneys and less to the bowels.
Excellent video and from my knowledge spot on. Keep it up! I've over supplemented potassium and it took me a while to figure it out but serious constipation resulted. Also, if you have weak kidneys totally stay away from potassium supplements, just get it from food.
Just happened to me. Took tons of electrolyte powder plus increased veggies/fruit. Blood level was high and I felt awful and had a hard time sleeping with high pulse rate. Just getting it from food from now on an dhopefully flushing out the excess.
Great video..thanks. What is the difference between Potassium Bicarbonate and Potassium Chloride? and can I take Potassium Bicarbonate as a supplement in my cooking?
Your right on the $$$$$$$,,no 2 of the 3 billion + people on this big round ball we call earth are the same,but college educated doctors treat me the same as you,,its S0 frustrating trying to ask a doctor for help,they're only answer is drugs, drugs & more Drugs,im the only one of 30 friends that do not take pharmaceuticals,,,its called common sense,,ive learned the hard way to look at root cause instead of just the symptoms,, with every action comes a reaction,thanx,Bud
People who look for answers in 30 second clips, usually have a hard time finding real answers. We need to understand the actual causes and reasons to create real results.
I have CKD, so I stay away from Potassium, however I try to get 1-4% a day in food. When you see that "K-Orange color," in urine, you have too much Potassium!!!
I take Losartan and spironolactone for BP. My bp is still high. Wouldn't taking Losartan be pushing potassium into our body too? If so, what is the difference between swapping Losartan for potassium?. I wouldn't know where to begin with my doctor of what to say or ask....
I dunno anymore. Im supplementing with a little potassium & glycinated magnesium the last 2 days. Doesnt feel good at all. In a terrible mood & not able to do much whereas I'm usually fairly active in daily stuff. My diet is too simple. Meat & refined carbs. Usually bread. I eat little. Ive taken cream of tartar powder a little with Himalaya salt in water. Not large amounts. I drink coffee & tea. But not that much either. Been trying to regain some energy hence my attempts at these supplements of late. My sleep routine is irregular

I can't give specific advice or suggestions in comments. If someone is even on both sides, they might be balanced in that area.

I have found that im actually not a fan of your videos. You give “potentially” useful information. But then never give us any action steps like dr berg does. You never say. Ok here is the problem.. and here are some things you could do to solve the problem. I leave all of your videos feeling like i need to go find another video for a more thorough explanation. So why waste my time here??
I explain in most of my videos, every health problem has more than one underlying cause. So if I gave you a remedy, it would only for the individuals who's cause that could correct. And it would make other people worse. If you're looking for quick remedies that only work for some people, this is absolutely not the channel for you. To correct an underlying cause of a health issue takes work. If you're not willing to do the work, you would want to watch a different channel. If you do want to fix the underlying causes of your health issues, you're best bet is to read my book and learn how to look at your unique body chemistry.

That would be about 8 to 9 pounds of broccoli daily if that's all you eat for potassium intake. There are others listed that are much higher like spinach and chard but are high in oxalic acid. Potato at 600mg would need about 3 pounds daily.
Most vegetables has substantial levels of potassium. I once concluded that if you eat 700 g of vegetables, you get enough of potassium.
That's pretty much of those, though. So I guess most of us get less than we need.
I use a "sodium reduced" salt, with 30 % potassium chloride, in an effort to balance sodium and potassium.
It's actually a mineral salt, and I think it tastes good. That don't give enough potassium, because I use to9 little salt. But I think it helps avoid sqewing the balance too much.
Can’t get 4000mg potassium from food each day. The soil in the US is so poor! Yes. I take a potassium supplement.
Potassium citrate has lowered by blood pressure.
I already have low pressure...
Ive only taken about 1440 mg. Per day, along with food
I need Potassium citrate to keep kidney stones from forming.
Any suggestions?
Yeah, watch this video to see where you are. Maybe potassium is okay for you and maybe you're not already leaning too anabolic: th-cam.com/video/bhYhU2_LSfM/w-d-xo.html
But improving kidney function is another option. You can learn more here: th-cam.com/video/fQ-rLR9N5cI/w-d-xo.html
Let us know how it goes.
Chanca piedra is amazing for kidney stones
You likely need to get more alkaline, coconut oil, chlorophyll etc
Potassium bicarbonate is likely your best bet for a form of potassium for preventing kidney stones
Unpasteurized apple cider vinegar
Get more magnesium, magnesium glycinate is your best bet,I like Drs best brand
Also boran ,borax to stimulate the parathyroid glands to make more calcitonin,which signals calcium to stay in bones and out of soft tissues
B1/thiamine can at the 300mg daily level completely reverse kidney disease in 90 days, taking people with end stage kidney disease to absolutely no kidney disease by lowering their albumin levels in their urine by 39% on average
Do you experience symptoms of low blood pressure ? Or does your doctor just use the low value to fear monger ?
Because the yanomami indians had basically lifelong blood pressure of 95/60 ,and were incredibly healthy,mostly as a consequence of getting like/ 10 grams a day of potassium and practically no sodium
The reader should remember that for the Yanomami Indians, normal blood pressure averages out at 95/60 and does not increase with age. Try comparing this with the AMA western ‘normal’ blood pressure of 120/80, which then goes up in incremental steps as you ingest more sodium and lose more potassium while getting older. Of course, the medical apologists will claim this is because we are more civilized, have evolved, and are thus ‘different’, but rest assured this is pathetic rubbish.
The only significant difference between the Yanomami and Americans or Australians, is that the Yanomami are stuffed full of healthy potassium, while we are stuffed full of toxic sodium.
Best of luck
Which brand and how many capsules do we have to take to make it 4000mg

What are "hard tumors"? is it about the consistency to the touch, or is it about benign/malignant?

Speak about how to safely use if stage 4 kidney disease.
I supplemented for cramps but then I just started to eat bowls of vegies and I stop taking the suplement and my electrolytes were ok.
How does this relate for someone that has had weight loss surgery? They can no longer absorb minerals from their foods, they have to use supplements.
I have had insomnia since I was a kid and I have loose stools or constipation, Anxiety, Tachycardia. I am getting open heart surgery in a few weeks for mitral valve regurgitation and my lab results show anion gap is 4. I googled what that meant and it said low potassium,that's why I'm here. Now I'm more confused than before the video, do I take potassium or not ?

We all need way more potassium, and you aren't getting it from the completely destroyed and poisoned US food system
I was having palpitations for months. I started taking potassium and took my palpitations away after 1 week.
@abel4776 I wrote the comment 4 months ago. In June, I had mitral valve surgery and wish that I didn't. Now, I need to take asprin for the rest of my life because the surgery causes Afib, which can cause blood clots where the ring was placed. I don't know if I'll ever feel normal again, it's taken a lot out of me.

Lipase, amylase, and protease, enzyme supplements help digest food.
Make sure you get enough. To little is hard on the heart. An average of 2700 mg daily. That is quit a bit to have to intake. I take a little potassium chloride every morning and since I have been doing it I feel better.
How do you get that much potassium? I want to supplement with potassium, but I know it can be harsh on the stomach.
The recommendation is 4000-5000mg!
Great content! Thank you! Unfortunately our whole foods these days do not contain the proper amount of nutrients, so relying on diet alone is not adequate.
agreed
wouldn't it matter if it was potassium chloride or potassium citrate - both would have a different affect?
It could for other aspects, but not for what is being explained in this video with the anabolic and catabolic states.
What research says that K is anabolic and magnesium is catabolic?
Everyone is different. I supplemented with way too much confirmed by blood test and feel awful. When i took it I always felt like I had to pee which was probably my body telling me to flush it out.
or youy were pushing yourself too anabolic like we talk about in this video. In an overly anabolic state, the body will send more water to the kidneys and less to the bowels.
Excellent video and from my knowledge spot on. Keep it up! I've over supplemented potassium and it took me a while to figure it out but serious constipation resulted. Also, if you have weak kidneys totally stay away from potassium supplements, just get it from food.
Hello how could someone tell if their kidneys are too weak to take potassium supplements? 🙏
Just happened to me. Took tons of electrolyte powder plus increased veggies/fruit. Blood level was high and I felt awful and had a hard time sleeping with high pulse rate. Just getting it from food from now on an dhopefully flushing out the excess.
This is amazing talking because I go through this same thing thanks 😮😊
Thanks TC - Love your videos and books!!
Great video..thanks. What is the difference between Potassium Bicarbonate and Potassium Chloride? and can I take Potassium Bicarbonate as a supplement in my cooking?
Bicarb is very alkaline be careful
You don't want to neutralize your stomach acid
My doctor upposed my use of potassium because
One supplement madeit 0.01% above wnl. I eat very small amount of food.
so my potassium is elevated on the CBC. I DONT take potassium supplements. now what ??
I will stick to augmenting my diet with electrolytes.
Your right on the $$$$$$$,,no 2 of the 3 billion + people on this big round ball we call earth are the same,but college educated doctors treat me the same as you,,its S0 frustrating trying to ask a doctor for help,they're only answer is drugs, drugs & more Drugs,im the only one of 30 friends that do not take pharmaceuticals,,,its called common sense,,ive learned the hard way to look at root cause instead of just the symptoms,, with every action comes a reaction,thanx,Bud
Thanks for the explanation! It makes complete sense.
Glad it was helpful @Edy T. Nice to hear from you.
Is it OK to supplement with cream Of tartar.
I take Losartan Potassium and my pharmacist said take Potassium supplements, eat bananas, drink Gatorade and don't worry about it .
Yeah, anyone who recommends sugary drinks like gatorade probably knows what they're talking about.
@@KickItNaturally What does sugar have to do with Potassium?
Sugar can deplete minerals, and Gatorade is crap!
@@jaycounts4717Gatorade is loaded with sugar it defeats the purpose of the electrolytes
😂
maaan this guy never gets to the point …

I have CKD, so I stay away from Potassium, however I try to get 1-4% a day in food. When you see that "K-Orange color," in urine, you have too much Potassium!!!
Potassium slows the heart rate.
U need to do an interstellar test to get truecresults
I take Losartan and spironolactone for BP. My bp is still high. Wouldn't taking Losartan be pushing potassium into our body too? If so, what is the difference between swapping Losartan for potassium?. I wouldn't know where to begin with my doctor of what to say or ask....
I dunno anymore. Im supplementing with a little potassium & glycinated magnesium the last 2 days. Doesnt feel good at all. In a terrible mood & not able to do much whereas I'm usually fairly active in daily stuff. My diet is too simple. Meat & refined carbs. Usually bread. I eat little. Ive taken cream of tartar powder a little with Himalaya salt in water. Not large amounts. I drink coffee & tea. But not that much either. Been trying to regain some energy hence my attempts at these supplements of late. My sleep routine is irregular
Great video!💕
Thank you!!
Please address the acidic/alkaline issue regarding potassium. Doesn’t it help to get those who are too alkaline back to a better mix?
There is a lot of bad information in the pH world and they get confused on this. We don't use potassium to move blood pH and that is what matters most when talking about this. This video explains: th-cam.com/video/FBACHT-Pt3Q/w-d-xo.html

Its really hard to eat 100% daily potassium wo going over daily calories
It's more about having digestion working well enough to actually get the potassium out of your food.
@@KickItNaturally whats best way to do that? I recently have stopped drinking soda and switched to apple juice. So now I drink about a quart of it a day which is almost half what I need for potassium but it's 900 calories. I'm not drinking it FOR the potassium but just as a beverage instead of soda
Ok are you saying dont take potassium
Not really. It can help some people in the same way it can make others worse. The point is, look at the body chemistry.
I take magnesium and potassium small dose it really helps anxiety more than ssri only small dose potassium 100mg rest with foods
This video explaining the possible causes of anxiety will help you understand why lifting mineral levels can improve anxiety for some people. th-cam.com/video/UokNi-R9iLk/w-d-xo.html

I have found that im actually not a fan of your videos. You give “potentially” useful information. But then never give us any action steps like dr berg does. You never say. Ok here is the problem.. and here are some things you could do to solve the problem. I leave all of your videos feeling like i need to go find another video for a more thorough explanation. So why waste my time here??
I explain in most of my videos, every health problem has more than one underlying cause. So if I gave you a remedy, it would only for the individuals who's cause that could correct. And it would make other people worse. If you're looking for quick remedies that only work for some people, this is absolutely not the channel for you. To correct an underlying cause of a health issue takes work. If you're not willing to do the work, you would want to watch a different channel. If you do want to fix the underlying causes of your health issues, you're best bet is to read my book and learn how to look at your unique body chemistry.
