As more and more literature is documenting that individuals ingesting a diet high in refined carbohydrates and processed foods are not receiving adequate intake levels of 4.7 g per day of potassium, potassium supplementation may be an option for these individuals.  However, other literature also suggests that, given many of these individuals are also demonstrating suboptimal acid/alkaline balance, the type of potassium is critical for optimal outcome.  Specifically, this literature states that potassium bicarbonate is the form of choice in these situations.  Finally, a significant body of literature suggests that potassium bicarbonate (as in our K-Alkaline + Mg product) is associated with optimal bone physiology.
Magnesium glycinate has been added to the product for two reasons.  First, published literature has demonstrated that potassium and magnesium are both necessary for either mineral to function optimally in various physiologic processes.  Second, the form of magnesium used in this product, magnesium glycinate, has been demonstrated to have one of the highest levels of bioavailability compared to other forms of magnesium.
