If you’ve been struggling with bloating, constipation, or sluggish digestion—and you feel like nothing is working—there’s a missing piece that almost no one talks about: potassium.

✅ Why stress, adrenal function, and blood sugar can deplete potassium

✅ The best potassium-rich foods for gut health

✅ Why HTMA testing is a game-changer for uncovering mineral imbalances
