A quick search says the recommendation amount of potassium a day is 4.7G for adults. While spinach and those Ostrim things are high (Ostrim says 330mg of potassium), you still have to eat a LOT to get close to the recommendation. I found it easier to throw that potassium salt into chicken bouillon (getting sodium + potassium). Also it's funny how the supplments folks are allowed to sell potassium. There's regulatory issues of having more than 99mg per pill (could damage stomachs or something). So these companies market compounds with potassium that aren't in bio-available forms.[1] "550mg!" people see, making them think they're all set (and hah, pulled one over on terrible government regulators). Nope. Same happens with magnesium. Seems rather misleading, even though they are printing the truth. 1: http://www.amazon.com/Nature-Made-Potassium-Gluconate-Tablets/dp/B0029O0BWW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1443700821&sr=8-2&keywords=potassium http://www.amazon.com/Nature-Made-Potassium-Gluconate-Tablet...
