How much potassium?

[burnthiscorpse]

How much is too much? How much is ok? Speaking of potassium caps that is.
I dont have any issues in the gym. But when I train(wrestling), I sweat like a fucking pig. I stay hydrated but I still get some knotting, cramping issues in my forearms and biceps. I wanna see if potassium helps.
Ofcourse the lable says take 1-100mg cap ED and no more unless your doc says so. Be we all know sometimes its bullshit. So can you/should you take more? Can it be harmful? ect.ect..

Try adding sea salt and glycerine with a waxy, bcaa drink during your training. For potassium just have a banana or kiwi.

Vitamin pills tend to have very low level of potassium becaus etoo much can be dangerous. But most MRP's are high in potassium. It's a diuretic and makes you look leaner. But an overdose can lead to an imbalance of electrolytes which can cause a heart attack.

Kind of off topic but I saw an interesting show on mystery diagnosis or medical mysteries, one of those type shows. Anyway a coroner said it was virtually impossible to tell if someone died from too much potassium, and that a high dose potassium injection was the perfect murder weapon.

Reason being, when someone passes away, the potassium levels in the heart naturally begin to elevate and a coroner is unable to tell if the elevation was introduced foreignly or occurred naturally. The only way they caught the guy was the person he was living with noticed an odd number of potassium chloride bottles in their trash. At first he thought nothing of it cause the guy was a nurse. The reason the police started to investigate the guy was there were an odd number of old patients that were passing away of heart attacks in the hospital during this guys shift. He was killing them all and it was looking like they had heart attacks.
