Anyone know why Cole Robinson places so much emphasis on potassium chloride over other forms of potassium?
I recently discovered, mid-fast and dealing with some electrolyte deficiency, that apparently potassium is prescription only in the country I live in. I decided to end my fast on that note but I was wondering how long I could have...
