This is a reply to # 2,073,470I haven't been taking a supplement but have been increasing it in my diet. bananas, coconut water etc. I find I get heart palpitations if I don't. My practitioner warned me that since I'm in four lows if I take a potassium supplement my body will actually convert it to Calcium and give priority to that mineral, thus throwing my ratios off even more. I'm not sure if this is true but for the moment I'm following her recommendation. How about you? Are you taking any?

Hi Lolabear,
I was in desperate need of potasium I was at 1 and I felt aweful. I called RIck when I first started working with him . I started 2 x 99 mg and it made such a diffence for me. I went from a 1 to a 20 in 3 1/2 months...

This is a reply to # 2,073,491Hi guys,
Well I spoke to Rick yesterday and he said that I need to take potassium (mine was at 1) along with mag but I get so scared because I know that potassium will lower sodium and I don't want my sodium to go down. That's when he said to take an adrenal support for that but I have a feeling I will not tolerate what're adrenal support he suggests. This is a real dilemma, I know we've discussed this Marie. I have to get these levels up somehow. The food news is that after sticking to a mostly Wilson type of diet for about 1 yr now, my hypoglycemia is much better and so is my anxiety. But I know I have a ways to go with my mineral levels. Also I suspect my son is having issues with this too...am waiting to receive hair test kit that Rick has sent for him.

This is a reply to # 2,073,520Hi Lolabear,
You may feel better then worse. I was not able to handle the adrenal support. But once I was really low in minerals I was able to handle 1 a day...It did wonders for me. I got my sodium up from 3-83 in 3 1/2 months....my potassium from 1 to 20.. I did stop the adrenal support about 2.5 months in do to I felt a little anxious...so this was do to my sodium level getting higher :)
Good Luck :)
Marie
Ps I took it in the am so I knew it would not effect my sleep at night.

If that is true it also has to be happening with the potassium you get from food, your body is not just going to say ooh here is some potassium from a supplement, lets turn that into calcium but leave the potassium from a banana as potassium. That is completely illogical.
I actually hope it is true that our bodies are converting potassium to calcium as I have taken so much potassium over the last 3 months that I am bound to be out of 4 lows.- Re: Potassium Marie64

I was eating Kiwi's high in potassium before I started the supplements but I never felt as good as when I took the supplement.
When do you get retested? And good Luck getting out of the 4 lows.

My hair is on its way to the lab at the moment, I so hope there has been some progress.
I am the same as you, i never felt good until I started on potassium supplements. In fact I was getting lower and lower in potassium the more arl supplements i took so maybe it was being converted into calcium, it was definitely going somewhere.- Re: Potassium INTi

This is a reply to # 2,073,653Hey Amy, I've now tried the potassium supplement (100mg a day) for over a week now, separate from ARL supplementation, due to fact that my practitioner won't agree to give me the SBF despite it being on list of ARL supplements. Anyway, it's been a week and i must say, I've felt absolutely no improvement on my reactive hypoglycemia or any other symptoms.Maybe it's still too soon, but my thinking is that it could be the other ingredients in SBF combined with potassium that is giving you the positive reaction. The Thymus component in the SBF that helps regulates calcium, so it might be the missing link for me. For me potassium alone, just doesn't seem to be the answer when it comes to my hypoglycemia and now re-occurring fatigue. How long did it take for you to see definite results from SBF? Anyone else see positive results just on potassium supplementation alone?Advertisement

This is a reply to # 2,073,470I think a serious issue with the ARL NB program is the low dosages of potassium. I just started supplementing with potassium again yesterday. I don't understand why ARL is against it?
