💙Sodium and potassium ratios are more important than the individual minerals for heart health.
🔀Most people have a high sodium and low potassium intake, which increases the risk of heart problems.
🌊Potassium is protective against strokes, lowers blood pressure, and benefits the heart and kidneys.
⚖️The ideal sodium-potassium ratio is two to one, but a three to one or four to one ratio may be necessary for those with imbalances or health issues.
⏱️Correcting imbalances in sodium-potassium ratios may take months or even years.
