Analysis

Potassium citrate is widely favored by nutritionists and in research for its excellent absorption profile and additional benefits, such as contributing to kidney health by helping to prevent kidney stone formation. The inclusion of calcium is a minor additional benefit, though the primary focus remains potassium. However, like other 99mg supplements, its overall efficacy for major impacts on heart health, fitness performance, muscle gain, or energy levels is constrained by the small quantity of elemental potassium provided per serving, requiring consistent long-term use for subtle effects.

Pros
  • Contains potassium citrate, a highly bioavailable and well-researched form.
  • Potassium citrate can also support kidney health by helping prevent certain kidney stones.
  • Includes a small, complementary dose of calcium.
Cons
  • The 99mg potassium dosage is very low compared to daily requirements.
  • Will not significantly impact major potassium deficiencies or high-demand situations.
Warnings
  • Individuals with kidney issues or those on potassium-sparing medications should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Goals
Heart Health 40.0
Potassium citrate is beneficial for blood pressure regulation, but this low dosage offers limited direct impact for significant heart health improvements for most individuals.
Fitness 40.0
Offers general electrolyte support in a well-absorbed form, but the amount is too small to address the higher demands of intense fitness activities or significant electrolyte losses.
Muscle Gain 35.0
Provides minor indirect support for muscle function and nerve transmission, but it's not a primary factor for muscle growth or recovery, which requires more comprehensive nutritional strategies.
