Potassium is a mineral nutrient that is essential for the proper functioning of many physiological processes. It is found in fruits, vegetables, and meats. The absorption of potassium by the intestines is regulated by the hormone aldosterone. Potassium also plays a role in maintaining normal blood pressure levels and regulating heart rate. In addition to its role as an electrolyte, potassium is also important in cellular metabolism because it binds to calcium ions and regulates their movement across cell membranes. High concentrations of potassium are found in the brain, heart, liver, and kidneys. Low levels of potassium can lead to muscle cramps and weakness, irregular heartbeat, cardiac arrest, or even death.
