Comment on Blood pressure control should focus on more potassium (2023)parent

Comments

IIRC the recommended Daily Value for sodium is strictly LESS than 2300 milligrams (mg) per day, while potassium should be over 4700, nearly 2:1. If anything, it sounds like there ought to be a >50% product.

I see cream of tartar is 1 cent per gram in bulk, ~5 cents per 1000mg potassium.

I get around 1600 mg of Salt from my medicine alone. ideal limit is 1500 mg while recommended limit is around 2300 mg (teaspoon of table salt) as you indicated.
