yeah, i'm on that razor's edge right now

fortunately i have figured out that since i have got plenty of calcium and sodium and probably magnesium, it must be potassium that is the hole in my system

so i've got some potassium bitartrate - the only potassium salt i could find at my local supermarket- and it's now mixed into my sea salt mix along with a little sodium borate, because i have also learned and proven from testing that when magnesium and calcium levels are low it can be due to inadequate boron, and boron's mostly found in food, and some fish, the salt itself has a "fishy" taste

probably will add some other things to the mix as well but i feel very confident that using potassium bitartrate as a small part of my salt mix will help

ah yeah, i want to add a little magnesium sulfate to the mix as well... it's mostly raw grey sea salt, but with a little potassium bitartrate, and sodium borate and a little MgSO4, not only will my salt be super tasty, i will not have this deficiency problem

with the kidney and salts, if you increase salts, you can always increase water to some extent, and it acts to stimulate the kidneys to flush out other salts that are not useful or are built up in toxic levels, like bromides and fluorides

it is sorta making me think that maybe an electrolyte mix product might actually both be helpful and maybe sell ok if i were to put it together and market it

just to figure out optimal ratios

it doesn't have to be exact, but you have to be careful

i know from horticulture that if you have too much of some minerals it can cause deficiencies in others, like, i forget, i think iron and calcium are two antagonistic minerals

you don't really need to worry about calcium so much, it's usually limited by magnesium, but i think if you have too much calcium and magnesium it can inhibit your absorption of iron, which can negatively impact your respiration

so, yeah, my approach is cautious, a bit more potassium and boron are the main things i'm adding right now

i got such a good feeling about it right away, i'm gonna keep poking at this one

at least for myself, idk about making a product or anything lol
