A long with sodium, chloride, calcium and magnesium, potassium is electrolyte. These substances conduct electricity in the body. The balance of potassium in the body depends on the amount of sodium and magnesium in the blood. Too much sodium<br \/>\nin diets may increase the need for potassium. When the body loses too much potassium in urine can cause hypkalemia (low potassium). This symptom includes weakness,<br \/>\nlack of energy, muscle cramps, stomach disturbances, an irregular heartbeat.
