Found Potassium Citrate willing to try
I am just now coming out of eight months of persistent diarrhea. One of the side effects of Potassium Citrate can be diarrhea. I was hesitant to use this supplement as suggested by the Urologist surgeon. It did not make sense. In the last five days, thanks to using Proflora® from Bio Botanicals, I am willing to try Potassium Citrate based on the idea that it can lower the pH. I am still going to use various herbs to help get the fragments to leave.
THIS IS ABOUT POTASSIUM CITRATE
Potassium is an important mineral used in various bodily functions. It is an important factor in the maintenance of the body's acid-base balance and nerve conduction, as well as the transfer of nutrients through cell membranes. Potassium is found in a number of foods, including dairy, fish, and other meats, fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Because food processing reduces the levels of naturally occurring nutrients in foods, supplementation may be necessary to insure adequate intake. Potassium Citrate is a well absorbed and highly bioavailable form of potassium.*
