plies 480 mg potassium.) If your level is 3.6 to 4.0, you will
need ½ teaspoon, three times daily. If your level is 4.1 to 4.4,
you will need ¼ tsp. three times daily. Your tissues will gradu-
ally load up on this precious nutrient. Foods known to be high
in potassium, such as bananas are not enough to raise the potas-
sium level.
Whenever you are on a potassium supplement for more than
a few weeks you must get a follow-up blood test. When a level
of 4.7 is reached, you must stop the supplement, and rely on
wholesome foods for further supplies. If you cannot schedule a
blood test in this time frame you must stop taking potassium
after three weeks just in case it is high enough.
Persons with a potassium level that is too high, such as 4.8
or higher, have a thyroid problem (not caused by taking potas-
sium). Naturally, we would not supplement potassium when it is
already high. Without enough thyroid hormones the tissues can-
not lap it up; this lets it accumulate in the blood while the tis-
sues are starving for it. Thyroid problems are mainly caused by
dental toxins. High potassium levels (over five) can cause
symptoms such as slow heart rate.
As you do the dental clean-up the thyroid recovers quickly,
and now the tissues eagerly lap up more potassium from the
blood stream. This can cause a sudden drop from too high to too
low levels. Another blood test is necessary to see if you now
need to supplement potassium. You cannot rely on your doctor
to be aware of these subtle relationships. You must notice them
yourself on follow up blood tests.
Your blood salt content determines your blood pressure to
some extent. Salt holds water; it was meant to hold water in
your arteries and veins. If your salt level drops too low, you
cannot hold the water in your blood vessels. Water will escape
into your tissues because the blood vessel walls are porous. As
the fluid escapes into your tissues they become water-logged
(edematous) and your blood pressure must drop, causing fa-
tigue. Most of this escaped fluid can be drawn back into the
blood vessels when the salt level rises again, but the bigger
