Overview
NOW Potassium Citrate provides 99mg of potassium in the highly bioavailable citrate form. The 99mg dose is the FDA-regulated maximum for dietary supplement capsules/tablets. Potassium is essential for blood pressure regulation, muscle contraction, nerve function, and fluid balance. Most Americans consume only 50-60% of the adequate intake (4700mg/day). The 180-capsule count provides a 6-month supply.
