Himalayan salts are out of my price range, but i'm really talking about K and Mg. Losalt is recommended for K, but it's not pureI use pink Himalayan salt in place of table salt. It has various minerals including potassium and magnesium and slightly lower sodium content. I use it each morning in my coconut ‘porridge’ recipe and whenever a recipe calls for salt.
EDIT to agree with Dr Snoddy, I use magnesium spray on my feet and ankles to prevent night cramps.
Tesco Finest pink Himalayan salt £3.10 comes in its own mill. Ok not as cheap as bog standard table salt but won’t break the bank!Himalayan salts are out of my price range, but i'm really talking about K and Mg. Losalt is recommended for K, but it's not pure
No idea. I supplement these and have done so ever since i changed my diet as that is consistently advised. It may well be that I get enough, but K is required in a high amount so I'm not sure about thatDo you know you are deficient in Magnesium and Potassium? Have your blood tests revealed this, and do you have symptoms?
I ask because if not, then why take supplements?
sure, but you get 85g worth which won't last much beyond a week. I'm afraid for me that's out of my budget. ymmvTesco Finest pink Himalayan salt £3.10 comes in its own mill. Ok not as cheap as bog standard table salt but won’t break the bank!

I’ve never calculated what I have but 6g sounds a lot!
I use the Magnesium and glucosamine from this range. Brilliant for stopping night cramps.I use this

If ive got any signs of mg deficincy ( muscle cramps)
that's based on keto recommendations, gleaned form r/keto on reddit. This would include all salt intake. If that's incorrect i would love to be corrected, but the reason given is due to low carb being diuretic, flushing out a lot of sodium
how much spray do you need to apply?I use the Magnesium and glucosamine from this range. Brilliant for stopping night cramps.
sodium is about half the intake from salt. So that's about 3g which is, iirc, the minimum. LC requires a little more for reasons just mentioned: low carb flushes out a lot of sodiumI’ve never calculated what I have but 6g sounds a lot!
It recommends you build up to a maximum of ten sprays per day.how much spray do you need to apply?
The pink Himalayan salt would last 28 days on 3G per day then. Not such a bad deal!sodium is about half the intake from salt. So that's about 3g which is, iirc, the minimum. LC requires a little more for reasons just mentioned: low carb flushes out a lot of sodium
