BulkSupplements.com Potassium Citrate Powder - for Hydration Support, Mineral Supplement, Potassium 99mg - Gluten Free, 300mg per Serving, 500g (1.1 lbs) (Pack of 1)

I became a fan of BulkSupplements with my very first order. Like some others here, I track my food so I know that my diet is potassium deficient. With Bulk I can adjust my dose to get just what I need, which is sometimes impossible with supplements in pill form. I like that I don't have to worry about stearates or pollutants. I just wanted potassium and that's all that's in the bag. The package I got had over 1800 servings for around $15. I haven't found a better deal anywhere. I read the reviews before ordering and I noticed that many people said that they had improved sleep with this product. I did not think I had any sleep problems, I slept okay, got up once to go to the bathroom during the night, then went back to sleep. I've never been a morning person because I feel like crap when I get up in the morning. I feel ill and it takes an hour or so to start feeling normal. I started using this potassium citrate and zinc orotate, also from Bulk. A week later I have stopped getting up in the night at all. I'm sleeping right through the night and I don't feel so crappy when I wake up. I didn't think I had any problem in this area, yet I've seen an improvement. There is an old adage that's often applied to food and supplements: "Good, fast, cheap. You can only get two out of three. If it's good and fast, it won't be cheap. If it's fast and cheap, it won't be very good." With Bulk I thought to myself that it's good quality, cheap price, so it won't be fast. Weighing out my doses is going to take time, or maybe it will take a month to get my order. I was wrong on both counts. My order arrived in two days and weighing out a dose takes only a second. I was surprised at how little time it takes. Sure it's not as fast as just popping a pill, but it really only takes a few extra seconds - for me, it is time well spent. If you are going to go to the trouble to supplement, you might as well use the best product you can get, even if it takes 2 extra seconds out of your day. With a cheap digital scale, weighing takes almost no time. What takes a long time is shopping for vitamins: researching, reading all the fine print on all the bottles, researching the contaminants trying to decide which contaminants I'm willing to expose myself to, etc. I think that Bulk is going to save me hours of shopping time over a year. Bulk Supplements has done the "impossible" and provided all three: good, cheap, and fast. I'm going to be ordering from Bulk again in the near future. I take a lot of supplements, so as I run out of each one, I plan to replace it with a Bulk product.

I started on a ketogenic diet a couple of months ago, and as anyone knows who has tried it, the pickins are slim when it comes to potassium. The majority of potassium is contained in plant sources such as dark leafy vegetables and grains, and those aren't always doable while doing keto (in fact, grains are off limits). Red meat contains some potassium, but I can't get enough of that in a day. Fish is an excellent animal-based source of potassium, but I just don't like it. :-P Soon after I started my diet it was clear that I was lacking potassium; I had a lot of muscle weakness and some other minor symptoms. It was frustrating not to be able to find anything stronger than 99 mg of potassium when I was literally lacking thousands of mg a day. After consulting with my doctor I was given the go-ahead (encouraged, even) to take as much potassium as I need (I count my potassium intake via food sources every day and supplement accordingly). I'm really happy with this purchase. The potassium comes in a durable pouch with a durable zipper and the pouch stands up on its own. The crystals are a bit bigger than that of standard table sugar or salt. It dissolves readily in water or any other beverage of choice. I have personally found that I need to take small amounts throughout the day because if I don't I get kind of a "heavy" feeling in my muscles that's hard to describe. This potassium citrate contains 36% elemental potassium, so 1/8 tsp = 257 mg. On BulkSupplement's website, they recommend no more than 275 mg of potassium citrate a day, so be sure to do the right thing and check with your doc before taking more than that. In summary, I'm very happy with the packaging and the quality of the product and will be back to purchase this item again. Thanks for making this available, BulkSupplements. :)

Nice aid

Great product

Bought to diy LMNT (they have the recipe on their website) and this is one of the ingredients. Works well, dissolves easy enough. Would recommend.

I've always been a heavy sweater, it was never a problem in my youth, 3 kids later and pushing 40 I developed debilitating nocturia which has destroyed my ability to sleep and made my life very difficult. Since taking this, instead of getting up 5-15 times a night, it's been a consistent 1 time. If I have a busy day and forget to take it, there's a noticeable difference. Given how huge and affordable this bag is I feel like I might be able to sleep through the night forever now.

Good quality and good packaging.

Product is great. Would recommend adding a desiccant sachet and checking the correct RDI as the company has a habit of suggesting much higher amounts than the average RDI.
