Stay Hydrated, Stay Strong:
The Role of Potassium in Electrolyte Balance
Hydration isn’t just about drinking water—it’s about maintaining the right balance of electrolytes, especially potassium, to keep your body functioning at its best. NEUTRA K, developed by Paracelsus Life Sciences, delivers potassium citrate in a gentle, non-acidic form that supports hydration, cellular balance, and overall wellness.
Potassium and Fluid Balance
Potassium is the most abundant intracellular cation and plays a key role in maintaining intracellular fluid volume and electrochemical gradients across cell membranes. These gradients are essential for proper nerve transmission, muscle contraction, and kidney function, all of which are directly tied to hydration
When your body is well-hydrated, potassium helps regulate fluid movement between cells and tissues, ensuring that your muscles and organs stay nourished and energized.
Electrolyte Replenishment and Energy
Potassium works closely with sodium to maintain the body’s electrolyte balance. This dynamic duo powers the sodium-potassium pump, which consumes nearly one-third of your cells’ energy (ATP) to maintain fluid and electrical balance. This pump is vital for replenishing electrolytes lost through sweat, especially during physical activity or heat exposure
Hydration and Longevity
A landmark study by the National Institutes of Health found that adults with optimal hydration; measured by balanced serum sodium levels were less likely to develop chronic conditions and showed slower biological aging. Proper hydration, supported by potassium intake, was linked to better cardiovascular, metabolic, and immune health, and even longer lifespan
