Pure Encapsulations Potassium (Citrate) is a vegetarian capsule supplement providing potassium as potassium citrate, manufactured by Pure Encapsulations.
Potassium is a mineral found in foods and plays a key role in contraction of cardiac and skeletal muscles, gastric secretion, renal function, tissue synthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism. It is the major cation of intracellular fluid and is essential for maintaining acid-alkaline balance, isotonicity, and electrodynamic characteristics of the cell.
Potassium works with sodium to support healthy water balance, heart rhythm, and normal nerve and muscle function. Research cited by the manufacturer suggests that adequate potassium intake may support healthy blood flow and cardiovascular health.
Adequate potassium also supports strong bones by supporting alkaline balance, bone cell function, and bone mineralization, in part by supporting calcium absorption and healthy bone resorption.
