I got the pot because I was reading alot over "there" about the importance of it....and now I know to look at the serving size because of you!

If you take adequate protein and leafy greens, you will get enough potassium... BUT you should be taking in adequate sodium to hang onto it (the calcium and zinc also play a role in this as well). That first one, I take three times a day without problems. Phinney and Volek think we should be taking in 5 gm of sodium a day if we are eating a ketogenic diet.
I don't think you really need the potassium/magnesium blend though.
