Essential mineral for cell function and electrolyte balance
Supports nerve impulse transmission in the heart and muscles
Promotes bone health and healthy blood pressure

Potassium 99 mg capsules supply 99 mg of elemental potassium from 495 mg of potassium gluconate.
Potassium is a mineral with fundamentally important physiological functions in the body. It is present in all tissues of the human body and is required for cell function and electrochemical gradients. However, typical diets in the U.S. and other industrialized countries often provide less than adequate amounts of potassium. Potassium is of great physiological importance, contributing to the transmission of nerve impulses in the heart and other muscles, and to the maintenance of bones and healthy blood pressure. Potassium is generally well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, and the kidneys regulate total body potassium by controlling urinary potassium excretion.
