The total potassium content of the body is approximately 30-40 grams, 98% of which is contained within the cells, primarily in the skeletal muscle. Potassium is the most abundant positively charged intracellular electrolyte. Potassium concentrations are about 30 times higher inside cells than outside, in contrast to sodium, which is 10 times lower inside cells than outside. It is this difference that creates the membrane potential, an electrochemical gradient across the cell membrane that is essential for muscle contraction, transmission of nerve impulses, secretion of hormones by the endocrine glands and the function of the heart muscle. 20 to 40% of an adult's resting energy expenditure is devoted to maintaining this critical electrochemical balance, via sodium-potassium-ATPase pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePotassium is abundant in vegetables, fruits, beans and nuts, and smaller amounts are found in animal foods. Because of this relative ubiquity, overt potassium deficiency is rare, but suboptimal intake can lead to signs and symptoms of deficiency, which may include fatigue, lethargy, muscle weakness, muscle cramps or spasms, heavy legs, constipation, intestinal paralysis (resulting in delayed gastric emptying, bloating, and abdominal pain), and cardiac arrhythmias. Insufficient dietary intake does not usually result in hypokalemia (dangerously low blood potassium levels), but the following risk factors for potassium deficiency should be considered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDosage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdults: \u003c\/b\u003eTake 1 capsule daily with food or immediately after meals (to minimize gastrointestinal irritation and prevent overly rapid absorption), or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
