As a mineral analysis practitioner most people are too low in potassium but there’s Got to be a balance with some other minerals. If you eat potassium and get muscle twitching add calcium and you still twitch add magnesium (magnesium lowers sodium potassium) magnesium is one reason we twitch. But potassium and calcium use each other so for me when I increase potassium I need calcium and we also need magnesium and potassium to utilize calcium!! A great way to get all three is nettle infusions but they’re high in magnesium low in sodium (Remember magnesium lower sodium and potassium) So just make sure you’re getting your sodium from pink Himalayan sea salt or you can add in oatstraw to the infusions for the raised sodium

Some doctors don't recommend potatoes and bananas because of hight carbs

At 2:09 , " bananas are kind of famous as being a good source of protein." Really? This made me: Isn't it possible to make a video, and then reviewing before uploading it to YouTube?

Fyi you'd need to eat 12 bananas to get your recommend daily intake of potassium. Lol.
