Potassium and magnesium support heart and blood vessel health. The deficiency of these trace elements is caused by stress, the use of drugs. In addition, a lack of magnesium and potassium is usually seen in people with diabetes. Sometimes perfectly healthy people who regularly go to the gym and sauna are at risk, as micronutrients are lost through sweat. Then the heart rhythm is disturbed, blood pressure fluctuations appear, muscle weakness, migraines, poor sleep and other disorders can be observed.
Low potassium levels lead to the development of arrhythmias, heart failure. In regions where water is depleted of these substances, mortality from cardiovascular diseases is greater. You can fill the deficiency by taking medications containing potassium and magnesium. It is not necessary to drink them constantly, but it would be useful to carry out such treatment for one month, 2 times a year.

The nutritional advice is simple: based on vegetables, herbs, fruits, whole grains, and legumes. Lean meat (pork - at a minimum, but turkey, rabbit, chicken, veal - excellent). It is good to eat seafood and eggs.
