More potassium seems to even help those already treated to a maximal extent.
Eat your high potassium veggies if you have arrhythmia.

I had atrial fibrillation for two solid years.
My cardiologist wanted me to drink at least 64 ounces of fluid every day.
I had a hard time drinking that much water, so I started drinking 64 ounces of low-sodium V8 Juice, every day.
Within a couple of weeks my afib reverted to normal sinus rhythm per my Kardia Mobile ecg device, and I have been in normal sinus rhythm for 380 days (more than a year for those of you in Rio Linda).
Turns out low-sodium V8 is loaded with potassium.
I am still drinking it.

Interestingly, OTC potassium supplements are limited to 99mg. Yet Rx pills are typically 750-1500 mg, meaning that the OTC versions are piddley small.
By comparison, one cup of V8 or one bottle of Naked brand Mango Madness each contain about 650 mg K.
