Muscle weakness, calf cramps, and heart palpitations from low potassium — why a banana alone won’t fix genuine deficiency, with the AI targets by sex, the clinical thresholds for hypokalaemia, other medical causes beyond dieting (diuretics, GI losses, refeeding syndrome), and the food sources that actually close the gap.

7 symptoms of magnesium deficiency — poor sleep, anxiety, muscle cramps, fatigue, headache, brain fog, and heart palpitations — each explained at a cellular level with the common misattribution that delays diagnosis. Includes a supplement form comparison (glycinate vs malate vs L-threonate vs oxide), food sources ranked by magnesium density, and a recovery timeline from first supplement dose to full symptom resolution.

Why GLP-1 medications create a specific compound electrolyte depletion — appetite suppression reduces food intake and mineral from food, thirst suppression reduces fluid intake and dissolved mineral, rapid early weight loss drives glycogen-related sodium and potassium loss. Covers the symptom-to-cause table mapping persistent GLP-1 symptoms to their electrolyte source, the scheduled daily protocol for GLP-1 users, liquid-first guidance for dose increase nausea windows, and the best low-volume mineral-dense foods for users with suppressed appetite.

What fasting does to electrolytes — the insulin-sodium mechanism, glycogen depletion releasing minerals, and zero dietary intake during the fasting window. Covers intermittent fasting (morning symptoms attributed to hunger that are actually sodium loss) and extended fasting (clinically significant sodium depletion and cardiac arrhythmia risk from potassium and magnesium loss). Includes a risk table by fasting duration, the intermittent fasting electrolyte protocol, GLP-1 and fasting guidance, and when symptoms require medical attention.

Why sodium depletes so fast at the start of any calorie deficit — the glycogen-sodium mechanism and the insulin-kidney mechanism explained. Covers the specific symptom pattern (base-of-skull headache, dizziness on standing, nausea, physical weakness, brain fog), how much sodium is needed during weight loss and on low-carb diets, the best food sources with amounts, the low-carbohydrate specific risk, GLP-1 user guidance, and when symptoms require medical assessment.
