Does taking Potassium rob the body of Magnesium?
My wife has been ordered to take a potassium tablet. Now, at night, she says her legs cramp. My CNA daughter says that the Potassium is robbing her body of Magnesium. Is this possible?

Potassium interacts with sodium but not magnesium. A sodium deficiency is virtually unheard of as most of get too much sodium. Most processed foods contain added sodium chloride (table salt) for flavor.
Calcium interacts with magnesium so a very high calcium intake can reduce you magnesium level due to preferential absorption of calcium.
Leg cramps are often caused by a deficiency of potassium, calcium or magnesium.

No it doesn't but I saw Don Lichty punch a guy so hard one time that he knocked the Magnesium right out of him. Don Lichty is on the loose so if you want to keep your magnesium inside of you stay away from him.

Using my A level chemistry knowledge ( which im currently studying so its all fresh) no. Potassium shouldn't do that, but hey, i may (probably) well be wrong.

guy would not. regardless of the incontrovertible fact that, their teachings and varieties of governing are not based on the sacred scriptures. in any different case, we'd be residing lifestyles accurately. perhaps you do no longer pay lots interest to the Apocrypha, yet inspect Sirach 38:4-5. the government is obviously controlled via devil. only he could think of approximately depriving us of God's herbs and replace them with pharmaceutical remedies that for the time of the long term render human beings mentally risky if no longer impaired. What a ill government! With love in Christ!
