Potassium Orotate

Potassium Orotate

Potassium orotate is a mineral transporter where potassium is bound to orotic acid. Potassium orotate delivers potassium through the cell membrane and into the cell.  Dr. Hans Nieper believed this was the most effective potassium transporter for delivering potassium into the cell. The intracellular uptake of potassium helps stabilizes cellular acidity and energy production helps correct glucose metabolism (sugar is a potassium antagonist) and improves low potassium levels in diabetics. Potassium orotate also supports collagen synthesis. Potassium mineral transporters such as potassium orotate, potassium arginate and potassium-magnesium aspartate can be useful in supporting metabolism both in heart muscle and skeletal muscles. Both potassium arginate and potassium orotate are helpful in cellular potassium replacement in individuals suffering from potassium loss due to diarrhea, vomiting, malabsorption, sweating, heavy use of diuretics and prolonged stress.

Potassium Orotate is one of Dr. Hans Nieper’s formulas that supports the following systems:

1. Cardiovascular System
2. Digestive System
3. Hormonal System
4. Muscular System
5. Renal System
