🧂What Is Potassium?

Here’s a full breakdown of Potassium a key mineral and electrolyte that supports hydration, bloat, mood, energy, and skin glow

Potassium is a macromineral and electrolyte essential for every cell in your body. It helps balance fluid levels, nerve signals, and muscle function and it’s especially important for hydration, skin plumpness, mood, and digestion.

You lose potassium through sweat, stress, and dehydration — so replenishing it is key for looking and feeling your best.
