from what i've found online, healthy adults are supposed to get between 2600-3400 mg of potassium per day, depending on gender.
so take for example Nature Made potassium gluconate. each tablet is 550 mg but each only provides 90 mg of potassium. so to get the recommended daily amount of potassium you'd have to take either 29(F) or 38(M) of the tablets per day, which seems like an expensive and inefficient solution to me.
NoSalt however, provides 650mg of potassium per 1/4 teaspoon. the recipe on snakediet.com calls for 1 teaspoon of NoSalt which comes out to 2600 mg potassium.
mixing NoSalt in water seems much more practical than taking 29+ potassium gluconate tablets daily.

LiteSalt is half salt/half potassium. NoSalt is full potassium.
I think LiteSalt is best for fasting purposes, because you get a little salt deprived too. LiteSalt + magnesium supplementation.
Nosalt:

or equivalent salt substitute. You can find them by the regular salt in the store.
For this one particularly, it only has potassium chloride (K salt), and no sodium chloride (Nu salt), so you would mix with regular salt about 50%.
I pour a small bit in my hand and add it to a glass of water, and then I do the same with a bit of table salt. Zap in the the microwave for 1 minute and stir to get it to dissolve quickly. It should only taste mildly salty if at all.
On strict keto or fast, I'll have two a day, one in the morning, and once in evening. If on a fast or if I am having some 'distress', I'll also have some Metamucil. I'll also have a glass of salt water if I am feeling notably lethargic, I have a headache, or I notice my blood pressure is higher than normal (can be an indication of K deficiency).
I take a multivitamin each day (mostly for just piece of mind) along with vit. D and fish oil with my other medicines.
I take no other supplements. Most other supplements, outside of diagnosed deficiencies (usually the result of an illness or drug side effect), are of very suspect utility. Most of the time, you will get more than enough nutrients with a varied diet. The only steady deficiency for most people that is effective to supplement will be D and Omega 3.
Many people will say Himalayan salt, but it only has trace amounts of minerals other than sodium. It is mostly a fad for hippies/hipsters who don't know better. It is pseudoscience.
No, the one I have sitting in front of me is a white container called "Original No Salt Sodium free Salt Alternative" with 650 mg of potassium.

? But there are salt substitutes. Here's one http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0049IRCAA/
It's a brand name, hence the quotation marks. It's this stuff - potassium chloride, and thus an excellent source of potassium.
The one I use is this one. It's potassium-based salt (potassium chloride) instead of sodium-based. So no sodium, all potassium basically.
(And my local grocery store has it; I don't buy it at the insane price Amazon has it listed for.)
As others have commented: It can taste metallic/different to some. But I personally can't tell the difference, especially when using it as an ingredient.
Like others have said... water intake and electrolyte supplementation are very important. 99% of the time I'm feeling fatigued/headachey/sluggish is because of dehydration or lack of electrolytes.
My super quick pick-me-up is a glass of water with a squirt of Mio (or other no-cal no-carb drink sweeneter), 1/4 tsp of No Salt (625mg of potassium) and a dash of table salt. I take 2 magnesium citrate tablets (each one provides 200mg) with my drink and I feel better within the hour.
In the beginning months I would also get cramps during sleeping, stretching, or after working out. I use the following on a daily basis and do not have any cramping anymore.
For good measure:
Sorry, I misspoke: After going to the cupboard, turns out I don’t use lite salt, I use a no salt potassium called “Original No Salt” (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0049IRCAA/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_tai_oviTCbGW5D9ZH). I added the link cause it’s easier than taking a picture of it and posting that here. Oh, and I can find it in my local grocery stores.
I got this cause I don’t need the extra salt - that’s what the bouillon cubes are for...
And since I’m typing this, here’s a link to show you the magnesium supplement I use, unflavored Natural Calm: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000OQ2DL4/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_tai_NCiTCbW2VCPKP Again, the link is for the picture - I can buy it in my local grocery stores (tho this one IS cheaper from Amazon).
The combo of bouillon and the No Salt is a salty drink, but I personally don’t think it tastes too salty. But, I love the taste of salt, so there’s that. 😊
Look for salt alternatives, this one is called “NoSalt”

just posted on this but try to use NoSalt for your Potassium needs. I'm not sure if a local grocery store would have it but if they don't, look for Litesalt which is 50%sodium and 50%potassium. good luck!
You can buy 2 bottles here though it is more expensive than if you found it in a grocery store in the seasoning section where you would find regular salt. Most grocery stores will have some kind of salt alternative for people with low sodium needs, just look for one with potassium in the ingredients. Magnesium can also be consumed and it's pretty cheap to get epsom salt safe for ingestion or magnesium in liquid form.
I do recommend you read that link about the starvation experiment if you didn't before, you're not likely to feel really good with 500 calories every few days. Hope it all works out for you, whatever you do!
I gave it in the directions. NO SALT which you ca find at the market is just potassium Pink himalayan salt. CALM is a magnesium powder product that is effervescent and mixes in water. Usually taken for bed or anytime to relax. CALM: https://www.naturalvitality.com/natural-calm . NO SALT: https://www.amazon.com/NoSalt-Original-Sodium-Free-Alternative-Ounce/dp/B0049IRCAA/ref=sr_1_3?gclid=Cj0KCQjw753rBRCVARIsANe3o47n5X7jnqJ0rEqGolFoE58nfMfU-aN6LZJJnJNtbRuGTDbZVk_TsEoaAn4LEALw_wcB&hvadid=241641998359&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9007733&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=9701294421541340602&hvtargid=kwd-6827623241&keywords=no-salt&qid=1567083886&s=gateway&sr=8-3&th=1
is this what you're talking about? i don't think it is but want to confirm. where did you find this nosalt at?
