Answers: what is potassium. how do i make that up in my body?

Because lack of potassium is rare, there is no RDA or RNI for this mineral. However, it is thought that 1600 to 2000 mg (40 to 50 milliequivalents [mEq]) per day for adults is adequate
Your total intake of potassium should not be greater than the recommended amounts, unless ordered by your doctor. In some cases, too much potassium may cause muscle weakness, confusion, irregular heartbeat, or difficult breathing
Addison's disease (underactive adrenal glands) or
Dehydration (excessive loss of body water, continuing or severe)
Type 2 diabetes mellitus or
Kidney disease
