Yeah, they usually have some % of potassium chloride, and potassium comes with its own set of problems.

- CWuestefeld 12y agoDo you have more info on this? My understand has been that it's likely that problems from "excess" sodium actually stem from an excess in relation to potassium levels, and so ensuring that you've got sufficient potassium is the way to avoid the kinds of things that have been classically associated with high-sodium diets. So my strategy has been primarily to keep my potassium level up, mostly by ensuring that I'm getting K in addition to just Na when I'm sweating alot. Has this been a bad strategy?
- raverbashing 12y agoSodium and Potassium are involved in a number of processes, I'm not sure about the problems of dietary excess of K but this might give a clue http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperkalemia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperkalemia
