In this podcast, Dr. Berg answers the question, is potassium good or bad for your kidneys. It really depends on how well your kidney works, like if you have stage 5 kidney failure or renal failure where you only have 10% of your kidney working, you need to avoid potassium because the kidney doesn’t have the ability to get rid of potassium and other nutrients anymore that could lead to hyperkalemia.


Symptoms of Hyperkalemia

• Nausea

• Weak

• Slow Pulse

• Tingling

• Numbness


One of the complications of being a diabetic is you lose the kidney function but if you are healthy and you have enough potassium is protective for the kidney especially if you’re a diabetic.


Benefits of Potassium

• Protects the kidney

• Help establish normal blood sugars

• Makes insulin work well in the body

• It can lower blood pressure


Functions of Potassium: Nerves / Muscles / Fluid / Energy
