User questions & answers

Question:	Para que sirve

Question:	This has only 3% the daily value of potassium. How is that extra 3% of any benefit
Answer:	Per the research, there have been concerns expressed over high dose potassium products, when not consumed with adequate water. Therefore, most dietary supplement manufacturers do not currently market products containing 100 mg or more potassium. However, potassium is available in a variety of foods, so ideally this product should be taken in addition to your diet. If you have questions regarding your use of the product, we recommend speaking with your doctor.
Question:	Why glutonate, not citrate, not other things that come in potassium
Answer:	The type of potassium depends on your need. Potassium with gluconate is usually a supplement for those with perhaps certain heart/blood pressure, etc. situations. Potassium citrate is more for people with a propensity for kidney stones. This is a very broad, simplified answer, but use it as such. What is your need for potassium? Heart, nerve function, etc.? Or kidney stones? Find out and then choose the right potassium for you... Maybe you should ask your doctor what you need, or don't need...

FAQ

Since your potassium supplement contains only 90 mg of potassium, which is 3% of the Daily Value, we would not recommend that you take a higher level than what is stated on the label, unless you have first consulted with your healthcare provider.

Why does the label state only 90 mg potassium in the Supplement Facts box?

The 550 mg is for the amount of potassium gluconate per tablet. Of that 550 mg of potassium gluconate, there is 90 mg of elemental potassium, from which the product benefit is derived.

User questions & answers

Question:	Label says "potassium(as potassium bicarbonate) 1,053 mg 30%" but dri is 4700 mg. 30% would be 1,410 mg. is your total of potassium bicarb correct
Answer:	Some studies say RDI is only 3500 so it’s different for each individual
Question:	Does the two capsule give 1020 mg of potassium or 1020 mg of potassium bicarbonate
Answer:	Sorry, Life Enhancement, but I don’t think your answer clarified the issue. The question wasn’t how much per capsule but rather whether the 1020 mg amount refers to the amount of elemental potassium in 2 caps or the amount of the potassium bicarbonate salt in 2 capsules.
Question:	how come this is way more than the legal limit of 99mg per cap
Answer:	I don't know the "legal" answer. However, the nutritional answer is that 98% of the US population eats below the 4.7g of potassium to meet the "adequate" level of the World Health Organization. A study of added Potassium Bicarbonate increased aorta flexibility, significantly increased endothelial function, reduces left ventricular mass, etc. Another study in Taiwan showed that increased Potassium salt reduced CVD mortality by 41%.Disclosure: I am just a knowledgeable consumer with no conflict of interests.
Question:	So it says 100 mg of potassium is max allowed in pill but these are much higher, which i actually am glad about , but still how ? Scam or not
Answer:	Regarding the answer from March 1, 2021: It’s Potassium CITRATE that’s 99 mg, NOT CHLORIDE. Chloride AND Bicarbonate (which this product is) come in 700 to 1100 mg doses, and are the kinds you take for low potassium levels and leg/foot cramps. Chances are this is the form you need. You should consult your doctor before taking it.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between this and potassium citrate and which is better and why
Answer:	Yes, it has 300 mg of PotassiumBut what of Glycine the glycinate part? and the Bicarbonate part?Too much glycine can make you sleepy in the daytime potentially risking car accidents and other accidents.Too much bicarbonate can be dangerous if a person already has metabolic alkalosis.It would be important to know how much of these ingredients there are in this product so we can take it safely.
Question:	What percentage of the recommended daily value is contained in one capsule
Answer:	I believe it is 200 mg., and it is my understanding that the daily requirement for adults is 4700 mg. Most potassium supplements are only 99 mg. per serving, and the recommended dose is one capsule per day, which makes no sense to me. Perhaps is has to do with liability issues. When I do not eat enough foods to get the minimum daily requirement, I increase the recommended amount of potassium supplements to partially make up the potassium deficiency in my diet. I never take more than three or four supplements during the day. (Potassium is extremely important for good health and, unfortunately, most people are deficient. I hope this helps.)
Question:	i have read about potasium supplements to aid weight loss but there are many potassiums...is it this one bicarbonate for weight loss
Answer:	I believe so. If I am wrong, please return to Amazon

Product description

Potassium activates many enzymatic reactions and supports a number of physiologic processes, including transmission of nerve impulses, muscle contraction, gastric secretions, renal function, tissue synthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism. Potassium is the major cation of intracellular fluid and supports the maintenance of acid-alkaline balance, isotonicity, and electrodynamic characteristics of the cell. In addition, it works with sodium to maintain healthy water balance, heart rhythm, and nerve and muscle function. Research suggests that adequate potassium intake may support healthy blood flow and cardiovascular health.

• Organ Function & Health: Potassium is an essential mineral which offers a wide range of nutritional support to ensure healthy physiological functioning of diverse organ systems.*
• Overall Physiological Support: Potassium activates many enzymatic reactions and is essential to a number of physiologic processes, including: transmission of nerve impulses; contraction of cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscles; gastric secretion; renal function; tissue synthesis; and carbohydrate metabolism.*
• Electrolyte Balance: Potassium works with sodium to maintain healthy water balance, heart rhythm, and nerve and muscle function.*
• Pure Quality: Our supplements are made with only premium ingredients sourced from trusted suppliers and guided by our nutritional experts, then carefully manufactured and tested to verify their potency and purity.
• Pure Difference: What makes us different isn't just our process or what goes into our supplements -- what we leave out matters, too.

User questions & answers

Question:	How large are these
Answer:	I measured these pills and they appear to be 3/4 of an inch long and 3/16ths of an inch wide. As others have said, they are slender and not too large. Only you can measure that with a pill you can tolerate and see if the size is good for you. Good luck!
Question:	How many mg of potassium per tablet and what are the other ingredients
Answer:	Potassium chloride is acidic and citrate is alkaline. Potassium citrate is a combination of potassium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. They’re mixed together and the dried end result is potassium citrate. Beside if you take too much potassium citrate, it will tell you in the form of loose stools.
Question:	What is the difference between this one and citrate
Answer:	If you can swallow common pills they should be alright. They are uncoated, not terribly large tablets. I do not recall them getting stuck like some pills. These are 99 mg tabs. Now I take 1,000 mg of potassium, and I found it easier to use a powder dissolved in water.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the country of origin
Answer:	My bottle only references this...manufactured and formulated by Pure Encapsulations in Sudbury, MA. USA.
Question:	Can the capsules be opened and dissolved in water? It would say on the label
Answer:	Yes. I open the capsule, sprinkle it onto our dogs food and mix it up. He doesn't seem to mind. He needs potassium citrate for a condition he has, and I'm trying this out as an alternative to the prescription meds or to use in addition with, depending on how well this works.
Question:	Is this 200 mg of potassium or 200 mg of potassium citrate. If potassium citrate it would only contain about 34 mg of potassium
Answer:	Potassium Citrate ( C6H5K3O7) is 38.28% potassium by mass. So, 200 mg of potassium citrate has about 77 mg of potassium.
Question:	I understood that there is a 100 mg. limit set by the government for potassium. Yet this is 200 mg. Please explain
Answer:	According to the FDA the Daily Value of potassium for Adults and Children >4 years is 4,700 mg so the Pure Encapsulations Potassium (citrate) 200 mg is only 4% of the daily value.

User questions & answers

Question:	It’s it 2 pounds or 1 pound
Answer:	The bag that I received was 1kg which translates to 35.27oz which is a bit over two pounds.
Question:	How does it taste? I use magnesium citrate powder and it has a citrus taste. Is this similar
Answer:	Dissolve it into just enough unflavored sparkling water and chug it. Very little taste. The carbonation cancels the bitterness/saltiness somehow.
Question:	How many milligrams of potassium citrate is contained in 1 tsp
Answer:	According to an identical product here on Amazon, they say one scoop (which is 1/8th of a teaspoon) is 275 milligrams of potassium citrate, which yields 99 milligrams of potassium. Both products are the same, so the info should be the same.
Question:	Where is this manufactured

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the size of the capsule
Answer:	At this moment this item has the following ingredients (note that ingredients and dosages may change from manufacturer at any time)Each VCapsule Contains:potassium (aspartate) 99 mg.vitamin C (as ascorbyl palmitate) 11 mg.Active Ingredients:PotassiumVitamin CVitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate)Inactive Ingredients:Hypo-allergenic plant fiber
Question:	What is the size of the capsule
Answer:	The main difference between Pure Encapsulations Potassium (citrate) and Potassium (asparate) is the elemental amount of potassium per capsule. Potassium (aspartate) contains 99 mg of potassium due to an old restriction on dietary supplements years ago limiting potassium to 99 mg. This restrictions was removed several years ago and at that time we launched the Potassium (citrate) product, which contains 200 mg elemental potassium per capsule. We also have Tri-Alkali with 400 mg of elemental potassium (as potassium citrate) per serving. The majority of research has used the potassium citrate form.
Question:	Where is the product made
Answer:	Recently, I have had to use a lot of potassium Citrate. It is natural because your body can absorb the energy in it when you pocket or tape the product on you. You don't always have to swallow it.
Question:	Are these gel caps or tablets? The bottle doesn't say
Answer:	99 mg
