I sweat a lot, and I feel very cold after the sweat is dry. My friend said that I am short of potassium and need to be supplemented. Is potassium important for the body?

    In the absence of potassium, human function will degenerate. Potassium is essential to the human body. Adding potassium-rich foods can help the acid-base balance of the diet and avoid diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia caused by excessive intake of acidic foods. Potassium is also an essential mineral that is essential for life. It works with sodium to regulate the balance of water in the body's cells and make the heartbeat more regular.
