And doctors said eating saturated fat would raise our cholesterol. As it turns out, it lowers cholesterol.

Then doctors said cholesterol caused heart attacks. As it turns out, cholesterol is the hero in the story, and it’s inflammation that creates the problem.

And doctors said we should all avoid iodine. Now we’re all in the ditch of deficiency–and paying a price.

Also, doctors said we should slather sun screen all over ourselves whenever we went out, but that prevented us from getting enough Vitamin D, so now we’re all deficient in that, too.

And doctors insist the TSH test is the gold standard–but they keep having to move the goalposts to make it fit the situation.

So, if doctors say potassium is a problem, I hope you’ll understand why I might be a tad skeptical. They may be right, of course, but since potassium was the cure for high blood pressure for years and years, I’m thinking potassium has something to offer.
