TwinlabPotassium Caps - Electrolyte Supplement for Muscle, Heart & Tissue Health - 180 Capsules, 99 mg
L**T
Easy to swallow, free of common allergens
These capsules contain 99mg of potassium (in potassium citrate and potassium aspartate). Apparently, 99mg is the strongest potassium supplement you can get without a prescription. One pill is 99mg or 3% of your daily value. This isnt a lot, but if you are willing to take several capsules, it does help supplement a bit. Dont be fooled by potassium supplements that say 595mg or some other large amount on the bottle. What you really need to look for is the "elemental" amount of potassium, which wont be more then 99mg if its not a prescription strength.If you consider that an average banana has about 400mg of potassium, then about 3-4 of these capsules equals eating one banana. If you take four with each meal, thats like having 3 extra large bananas per day which is quite a decent amount. The capsules are fairly small and they are easy to swallow.Other ingredients: Gelatin, Potato Starch, Purified Water, Magnesium Stearate, Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT), Silica.Bottle says that its free of common allergens (no corn, soy, yeast, rice, barley, wheat, lactose, milk, citrus, fish and egg products.) No added flavorings, sugars, salt, artificial sweeteners, colorings, preservatives, or salicylates.Overall I would recommend this supplement if you are willing to take several capsules. Otherwise, no matter what brand you go with, it wont really make a difference if you just take one a day. In that case, you'd need a prescription strength product. One additional thing you can do is buy a salt substitute that contains potassium. Many salt substitutes are actually mostly potassium chloride powder and can give you a substantial amount of potassium in a small portion.

Best Quality
If I fail to take a potassium supplement I suffer intense cramps , foot, lower and upper leg, excruciating and some times cause damage to leg. As long as I remember to take two and sometimes 3 or 4 if I feel I did not eat anything with potassium or I over worked during summer months I do not suffer any cramps. This product so far has been the best quality. It also will relieve cramps with in half an hour of taking it so it works fast. I always take at bedtime as most cramping occurs during night hours.

Broken bottle
Bottle arrived broken. Tiny pieces of glass everywhere. I can’t take these or I might swallow glass. This is not Eligible for return. I guess I will lose my money on this order. I have taken this potassium caps for years due to I am extremely allergic to bananas and avocados and cannot get my potassium source without having a severe reaction. This is what keeps my potassium levels normal, so I won’t end up in the hospital.

CHELATED
Like mostly that it is a chelated mineral. Haven't started using this brand yet, but am sure I will be very happy with it. I used to buy Twin Lab products a lot and think they are a quality product.

Good price, good quality
Without lab work, who knows if these supplements do anything at all? It's a low dose that I take to make up for any dietary lack without going overboard.

Best I've found
These are nice & tiny & easy to swallow. O ly thing I don't like is they run out of sto k a lot. Worth waiting for considering I wed to take 8 a day...4 in the am & 4 in the pm.

Best Quality And Realness
This is the only brand on the market that produces actual potassium. The others are fakes.

Contains two different potassiums
A blend, I like that. Not just the cheap stuff as some other brands.
