I'd ask your doctor or nutritionist, not some rando on HN. There are lots of smart people here, but none of them knows anything about your medical history.

  What I am asking about is scientific knowledge about whether or not potassium supplement usually lowers the amount of sodium the body needs to function healthily Simple as this. You would understand the fact you have to rely on yourself, science and peers' experience and knowledge more than on doctors if you were an immigrant grown up in a "2.5th world" country living in a "2nd world" one very-very low on money rather than a middle-class citizen of the USA ;-) To make it easier to understand I can say I rarely meet the same doctor more than twice, they are rarely brilliant or motivated and they use to make mutually-opposite claims on life-critical matters.
