But, is it the higher amount of sodium, or the deficiency of potassium that has caused problems for people?  A few potential health benefits of potassium: • It may be protective against strokes • It may be protective for the kidneys and heart • It may help lower blood pressure  *What’s even more important than these two minerals is the ratio they come in. Normally you would need 4700 milligrams for potassium, and 2300 milligrams for sodium. An average person has these ratios flipped, which can get them into trouble.  Ideally, the ratio would be 2:1. But, if there’s already an imbalance, or you have a problem with the heart or blood pressure—I would raise the potassium to 3:1 or even 4:1.  The more sodium you have in your diet, the lower the potassium you have. There may be more sodium in different foods than you realize. There can also be hidden carbs. Carbohydrates will deplete potassium.  The sodium used in carbohydrates is not in the form of sea salt, which means you don’t get all of the other minerals involved.  MSG is additional sodium that is not factored into the label of some foods.  Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 56 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
