Question: Why can the body handle 4700mg of potassium but the amount in most supplements is 99mg.?
Answers:
because potassium is water soluble, and can be passed through the body as waste.. Whatever it doesn't need, it discards..

99mg is likely an FDA RDA (recommended daily allowance) for a supplement in the form you are taking.. You wouldn't want to ingest 4700mg of potassium on a regular basis or you'd likely screw up kidneys and liver.. Health Question & Answer
