I have found that a very beneficial mineral for controlling hypertension is potassium. Everyone mentions magnesium, and CoQ-10 (which are both great), but potassium is seldom mentioned, and it has worked wonders for me. Potassium also “cancels” sodium chloride.

I have made an effort to increase both my potassium and, strangely, my sodium sources, in the past half year.

Keto forces large amounts of sodium out of you and you have to replenish it.

Low sodium V-8 or making your own tomato juice from tomato paste are inexpensive ways to get more potassium. For those interested, having fat (olive oil, etc.) with tomato juice can increase by 5-fold the absorption of lycopene.
