Healthy electrolyte balance and normal nerve and muscle function, with bicarbonate for your body's acid-base balance.
- Electrolyte and fluid balance. Potassium is the main mineral inside your cells.
- Nerve and muscle function. Muscles and nerves rely on the sodium-potassium pump to fire and relax.
- Normal acid-base balance. Bicarbonate is the body's main buffer; potassium bicarbonate supplies both at once.
- USP grade, 100.8% assay in a typical lot (spec 99–101%), supplied from Italy.
- Flexible amounts. Pure powder, so you set the amount.
Why it fits bioenergetic, low-toxin living. Cells that are rested and well-energized hold on to potassium and magnesium; stressed cells lose them. Bicarbonate travels hand in hand with carbon dioxide, which the bioenergetic view counts as a friend of good metabolism. Here it's one ingredient, nothing added.

500 g resealable bag with scoop included. 60-day no hassle returns.
Start low: about 1 scoop (roughly 125 mg) a day, dissolved in water or juice, with food.
Raise slowly: after a week or so, go up to 2 level .15cc scoops (250 mg) a day, or as directed by your healthcare professional.
If it feels like too much (an unsettled stomach), take less or split it through the day.
For accurate amounts, weigh it on a precision digital scale.
Talk with your healthcare provider first if you have kidney concerns, follow a potassium-restricted diet, or take medicines that affect potassium.

Potassium bicarbonate, protein and calcium
Ceglia L, Harris SS, Abrams SA, et al. (2009). Potassium bicarbonate attenuates the urinary nitrogen excretion that accompanies an increase in dietary protein and may promote calcium absorption. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 94(2):645-53. PMID 19050051. In older adults eating more protein, potassium bicarbonate cut nitrogen loss and may have helped calcium absorption.
Potassium bicarbonate and protein
Frassetto L, Morris RC Jr, Sebastian A (1997). Potassium bicarbonate reduces urinary nitrogen excretion in postmenopausal women. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 82(1):254-9. PMID 8989270. Less nitrogen lost suggests the body held on to more protein.
Bioenergetic & low-toxin perspective
Ray Peat wrote about potassium as a sign of energized, unstressed cells.
"When cells are excited, stressed, or de-energized, they lose magnesium and potassium, and take up sodium and calcium." — Ray Peat (https://raypeat.com/articles/articles/calcium.shtml)
"Foods that provide generous amounts of sodium, calcium, magnesium, and potassium, help to minimize stress." — Ray Peat (https://raypeat.com/articles/articles/cancer-disorder-energy.shtml)
A study Peat cited in the first article, which notes that bicarbonates are favorable for bone:
Zofková I, Kanceva RL (1997). [New drugs with positive effects on bones]. Cas Lek Cesk 136(15):459-63. PMID 9340191.

Consult your healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition (especially kidney disease or are on a potassium-restricted diet). Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if the bag is damaged or the seal is broken.
Store in a cool, dark, dry place. Keep tightly closed. Protect from heat.
