Must Have in Your Keto Tool Kit!
So, I have become an avid Keto way of lifer (I don’t call it a diet) and I do IF as well (Intermittent Fasting); most of all? I am a huge believer in Dr. Eric Berg who (IMO) is the most knowledgeable about Keto/IF and doing it the healthy way (yes you can slam back some burgers from McDonalds but there are healthier ways to consume high (good) fats). He recommends 4700 mg of Potassium A DAY (and don’t go saying you eat bananas because they only contain 300-400 mg depending on the banana size AND? They have too many carbs sugars). 1 cup of raw spinach leaves contain 167 milligrams of potassium, while 1 cup of cooked spinach contains 840 milligrams of potassium ( I never knew cooked made a difference but cooking releases minerals). Anyway, I was about to buy the Doctor’s electrolytes but I saw this one at a better price and with the same amount of potassium (1,000 mg!). That’s A LOT considering most (if not all) potassium supplements are only 99 mg per pill!Okay so those are the basic facts but how does it taste? I had it today in my water and at first I honestly was like “Hmm….kinda sweet and a hint of bubblegum….not sure I’m going to take to this…” then, as I did my weights at the gym, I started to like it more and more to the point that I wish I had another water bottle to add a scoop to it.This is not to say YOU will like it; this is to say this is why I do reviews – not everyone is going to have the same taste (whether in food or clothes etc.). So? If you don’t like stevia (this is the sweetener in it) and don’t like a rather fruity flavor then don’t get this. I personally really like the taste, the price and the fact that it has no artificial sweeteners in it and the company really seems to care about what the customers think – read the reviews, the company offers to do a refund if people don’t like the taste or say something like “Well Doctor so and so’s tastes so much better…” Um? Maybe the other doctor’s does taste better to SOME people – I can’t say, I haven’t tried, when I get more money I may try it but for now? I’m grateful for this product because before it? When I was at the gym – doing my IF (Intermittent Fasting), I would get dizzy and now? I don’t.Also? Let me address the possibility that this will make you go number 2 unexpectedly. I specifically take 1000 mg of Magnesium Oxide at night to encourage bowel movements; that’s pretty high I know but I need it to help me go. I take Magnesium Glycinate during the day to keep me relaxed/calm (for me this doesn’t make me go to the bathroom); this product has 120 mg of Magnesium Citrate – that’s NOT likely to make you have the runs and? Don’t you think the company tested this before putting it on the market? As in why would they market something that’s supposed to help you receive electrolytes/hydrate you that would make you eliminate it out so fast? Makes no sense. So why are there some reviewers saying they had terrible diarrhea? I’d say it’s more likely that their system is off and instead of bashing the product – why not take half a scoop instead of the whole?So? That’s it. I really like this product; the only potential negatives I can see for you (since you’re not me :-)) is that you may find it too sweet and it may act too much as a diuretic (you know what I mean….). But for me? This product gets 5 stars! I am so happy to have it help me do my morning workout routine even better!

Potassium
First, let me address some reviewers who rated this product low because they decided to buy a potassium supplement when they didn’t need it. IF you get dehydrated easily, work in the sun, sweat a lot, work out a lot, etc. Then you MAY need to replenish your electrolytes, one of the most prominent which, is potassium. If you get muscle cramps, heat exhaustion….potassium. And even if you have a hangover…. potassium. If not… then DO NOT TAKE THIS SUPPLEMENT!!! And do not rate this supplement low because you don’t read warnings or take advice from a dr first. I KNOW I need this. I work outdoors in over 100 degrees, in a very physical job. I have been to the ER a dozen times for heat related illness. I have a medical condition which prevents my body from absorbing electrolytes, vitamins and minerals properly. Is people like me, and very active athletes who can benefit from this supplement. Otherwise, a person can get too much potassium and become ill. A glass of OJ has about 500-700 mg of K. This has about 1000mg. So it isn’t even really THAT much. Now on to the review.I got the flavorless powder and, well, it isn’t exactly flavorless, it tastes like chalk. I nearly vomited. But, because it is such a subtle chalk taste (lol), I am able to mix in flavor. So I was drinking Body Armor drinks before, but decided I didn’t want those anymore due to the high amount of sugar in them. So now, I mix 1/3 body armor with 2/3 of this Keto k1000, and it seems to work pretty well at covering up the chalk taste and still getting me the K that I need, with less sugar. So, overall, seems to be working well (K.O.W.). Next time I’m ordering the orange flavor… hopefully it isn’t gross.

Great

This product helps me to increase my potassium intake for my bodybuilding program. It tastes great too.
