Potassium is a mineral found in everyday Indian foods such as bananas, coconut water, potatoes, dals, spinach and curd. In supplements it is usually bound to another molecule, and potassium citrate is one of the most common forms.
What is potassium citrate?
It is the potassium salt of citric acid, the same acid that makes lemons sour. It dissolves easily in water and is made by combining citric acid with a potassium source.
Compound weight vs elemental potassium
Only part of potassium citrate's weight is potassium itself. Potassium makes up roughly 36% of the weight of potassium citrate monohydrate, so a label that lists the compound weight will show a larger number than the elemental potassium. Compare products on the elemental figure where it is given.
What to check before you buy
- The amount of each ingredient per serving, not just per capsule
- How many capsules make one serving and how many servings are in the pack
