K(+) — increases serum potassium concentration
LimitedEvidence strength: limited. Human evidence with several recorded weaknesses, or a design that tops out at limited.Findingreplicated ×2“Potassium supplementation led to an increase in 24 hours urinary potassium excretion (from 55 ± 17 to 118 ± 32 mmol/24 hours), and also to a small increase in plasma potassium (from 4.29 ± 0.32 to 4.41 ± 0.30 mmol/L).”
