Good article and thx for posting it. ‘Pod
This is pertinent. I have to take Mg due to leg cramps and other meds I get to take.

My town’s water is over loaded with magnesium, so much so that it can’t be used for filling pools because the water turns black after sitting for two days.
Low potassium can be an issue also - due to certain high
blood pressure medications. Also the sugar substitute
Sorbitol can cause low blood potssium.
I found these things out after taking a certain BP med for
years, as well as eating sugar-free mints sweetened with
Sorbitol. My bloodwork reports started coming back with
extremely - dangerously - low potassium.
So after taking giant potassium horse pills for over
a year, my levels are finally back within acceptable
ranges, and I've been able to swap the darned horse pills
for a smaller half-the-previous-dose capsule.
So research, research, research people!
Not only pharmaceutical drugs you may take, but supplements
and the foods that you are eating also!
Don't be an obsessive hypochondriac - but it's a good idea
to at least pay a little bit of attention to these things.
