    Potassium is an important element that regulates the acid-base balance of blood and body fluids in the body, maintains the water balance of the body and stabilizes the osmotic pressure. Long-term potassium deficiency can cause symptoms such as irregular heart rhythm and abnormal nerve conduction. Like excessive water loss after a lot of exercise, potassium ion loss is easy to cramp. For a long time, the body will become swollen, especially at the ankle.
