Morton Lite Salt or similar. 1/4 teaspoon is 290mg sodium and 350mg potassium. You don't need to use a lot of it.

"A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. (To Bryan) And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?" "And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful." |

The article linked above questioning the evidence behind Potassium recommendations was written in 2018 and questions whether 4,700mg is truly required. NIH has a page from 2021 which recommends 3,400mg. This page also acknowledges that normal diets for most Americans don't include the recommended level. Then there is a 2022 FDA page on Daily Values that increases the recommendation from 3,400 to 4,700. 2018 paper: 4,700: Little evidence and most people not getting that much 2021 NIH: 3,400: Most people not getting that much 2022 FDA: 4,700: Various lists of items containing potassium: I don't eat a cup of beans, I don't often eat a large baked potato with skin, a cup of mashed avocado would require a lot of chips and tequila, a cup of yogurt is a lot, and I don't remember the last time I had beets. If I ate ALL OF THAT EVERY DAY it still wouldn't meet the 4,700 recommendation unless I washed it down with a cup of orange juice. I am going to have to accept that I'm not getting the recommended level of potassium.

"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) developed DVs to help consumers compare the nutrient contents of foods and dietary supplements within the context of a total diet. The DV for potassium is 4,700 mg for adults and children age 4 years and older [17]. FDA requires the new food labels to list potassium content. Foods providing 20% or more of the DV are considered to be high sources of a nutrient, but foods providing lower percentages of the DV also contribute to a healthful diet." |

My Mother had leg cramps for years and always drank a small glass of tonic water every evening. That alleviated the cramps. When she went into assisted living I bought this for her regularly. She never missed.

EDIT: Found it - the version of the same page for health professionals. I'm still looking for why the DV (from the FDA) is significantly different than the RDA or AI (from the Institutes of Medicine). Probably, as someone mentioned below, one hand just doesn't know what the other hand is doing.

None are without protein, and easy to add extra. You would only need about 2/3rds of that list to cover the suggested potassium intake. |

Very often the left hand has no clue what the right hand is doing.
