After much self diagnosis, I have concluded that I have issues with potassium. Short story long: I have had strange "symptoms" since I was a teenager. The most concerning symptom is my irregular heart beat (arrhythmia). I can feel my heart start dancing around. It skips beats, does this weird double beat thing, and gets really out if beat. When it happens I get dizzy, sometimes short of breath, and it actually hurts sometimes when it is a strong episode. It will last from a few beats to around an hour (at which time I am usually getting ready to go in for medical help). I actually was sent to a heart doctor for a while, but other than saying that I had arrhythmia, he did nothing. I noticed quite by accident one time that if I drank a coconut water when I was having an episode, the episodes seemed to end not too long after. Consequently, even though I hate the flavor of coconut water I was always forcing it down, and always taking it everywhere with me. So that was my normal, until I got a new job. My new job involves a lot of walking and a lot of exercise. Suddenly, not only was I having long lasting arrhythmia episodes, I was also getting leg cramps (Charlie Horses) and my migraines were getting really bad. I went from having a migraine every couple of months to having one every week, sometimes for days at a time. It was nasty. I realized that I couldn't live like that, and I tuned up my web medical degree (just joking, I am definitely not a doctor of any sort) and started reading about potassium. I decided that potassium was definitely worth a try. Since it said that you would have to eat 10 bananas to get your daily potassium dose (can you say hello constipation?) I figured that the powder would be a lot easier and would not gag me like coconut water. So this is how I got to where I have been taking a half of a teaspoon of this potassium daily. It has been working really well for me! I have had only 1 migraine and no leg cramps in the last month or so. I have still had some mild arrhythmias, but they have not been strong and have not lasted long at all. I don't care for the taste of the potassium, so I mix it with powdered Gatorade that I of course bought here on Amazon (the blue flavor called Glacier Freeze is my favorite for hiding the flavor). At first, I immediately jumped into a "large" dose of the potassium when I got it because I was feeling really desperate (1 teaspoon 2x per day for the first 5 days). It didn't upset my stomach. Strangely enough the first few times that I took it I felt really relaxed and sleepy like I had just had a glass of wine but without the buzz. I then backed down to the half a teaspoon per day and it seems to be working. To reiterate, I am not a doctor, and I cannot begin to guess what might work for you. But for me, this powder has been amazing. I am a much happier person. P.S. I was not paid or reimbursed for this review. I am just sharing my experience because I really wish that I had found this stuff a long time ago. This is the first potassium that I have bought, so I am unable to compare this one to any others.

Has a terrible after taste I'm not sure what to do about.

I like this Microingredients brand potassium citrate as its a bit finer grained than other brands I get on Amazon and dissolves quickly in liquids like my coffee: I put a 1/4 tsp with 1/8 tsp salt every morning for my electrolytes daily, a must! in hot TX summer. As thats not enough daily, I take 1/2 teaspoon at a time balanced with 1/4 tsp salt a few times as needed thruout the day. I can tell when I need it (sweaty n weak) & wash it down with water cuz I abhor drinking it in liquids (other than coffee which masks it cuz its salty tasting) n chugging it down that way is quicker n less vile, for me at least. Its just ughhhhh in plain water or other liquids, (other than coffee). Then shortly after, my energy comes back. Great stuff👍
