Blood pressure reduction & cardiovascular risk
Adults with and without hypertension; 22 RCTs plus cohort dataSystematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs and cohort studies
PUBMEDHigh

Increased potassium intake reduced blood pressure in people with hypertension (systolic −3.49 mmHg, diastolic −1.96 mmHg); associated with 24% lower risk of stroke (RR 0.76, 95% CI 0.66–0.89) with no adverse effect on blood lipids or renal function.

Dose:
WHO-commissioned review; evidence base for potassium intake guidelines.
Potassium regulation, muscle fatigue, & exercise performance
Healthy adults and trained athletesIntegrative physiological review
PUBMEDLow

Potassium is actively redistributed between skeletal muscle & plasma during high-intensity exercise; severe reduction of the trans-sarcolemmal K+ gradient contributes to muscle & whole-body fatigue. Maintaining adequate potassium status supports normal neuromuscular function & exercise capacity.

Dose:
Mechanistic review; intervention RCT evidence for potassium supplementation on athletic performance is limited.
