(More customer reviews)First, I wanted to address a comment on here regarding the potency of this mineral; it only contains 99mg of Potassium Citrate because that is the maximum allowed by US law for any mineral or vitamin sold OTC. A more potent vitamin/mineral could only be acquired with a prescription from a physician.
I'm on an atkins diet and was in danger of producing kidney stones due to an absence of calcium, potassium, and magnesium. These supplements are absolutely essential if your on an extremely low carbohydrate-style diet.
UPDATE: Wanna get around having to take a handful of these just to satisfy the DRA? Buy NuSalt, on Amazon and you're good to go. Get this, it has 530mg...FOR 1/6 TSP! Incredible. So, if you take 1/3 tsp, you've already taken half (don't quote me on that) of the DRA. Just be sure to dilute it in a big glass of water or koolaid, if you can't stand the taste. You may be tempted to dilute it in a small amount of water. Don't do it, unless you wanna feel your chest burn like a mofo for 15 minutes. I believe drinking it this way allows it to come in contact with the lower part of the esophagus in high concentrations, which ends up giving you a short-lived, but painful bout of "heartburn". So, I've never had that issue with a full glass. Just to illustrate the effectiveness of these high concentrations. I was on the Atkins diet, where your options for natural potassium are hard to find. My muscles ached like crazy the whole time until I downed an avocado. Started to take these caps, and while they relieved the pain, the pain was still there as I didn't like the idea of having to take a handful of these caps, even though I was pretty sure it was ok (unless you include the price of the product in your 'pain index'". Purchased the NuSalt, took two doses of 1/2 tsp each and the pain was gone within two days. In short, the price of the Nusalt and it's concentration make that my new source of potassium. You might want to check it out. They do make you buy like 12 bottles though, which sucks, but it's not like it expires. Good luck.
