Potassium Iodide vs potasium gluconate?

[Guest guest]

Can anyone tell me if Potassium iodide also suffices as the regular potassium

supplement? So in other words, do I need to take a potassium gluconate

supplement too in taking my regular multi vitamins. I don't take regular

potassium everyday but sometimes get muscle cramps and find that if I take

cal/mag and potassium, they go away. Does potassium iodide fufil the

requirements of the bodies potassium needs as well?

Iodoral ingredients:

Each tablet contains:

Total Iodine/Iodide 12.5mg (8333%)

Iodine 5mg

Iodide (as potassium salt) 7.5mg

The amount of potassium in Iodoral would not suffice if one needs extra

potassium. A lot of folks do not need to supplement potassium, as they are able

to get enough through foods. Those using HC may need to supplement or at least

keep an eye on their potassium levels. The muscle cramps are more than likely

related to magnesium issues.
