Unlike sodium which raises blood pressure, the electrolyte potassium might lower blood pressure. Use caution with this supplement because you can take too much of it. New research suggests that potassium and magnesium may lower your risk of developing high blood pressure.
Always check with your doctor before you begin any regimen.
