Bloated Stomach Remedy #8: Potassium
Potassium is one of the alkali metals that is chemically similar to sodium. It is vital for living cells to function, as the transfer of potassium through nerve cell membranes is required for nerve transmission. Both the excess and deficiency of potassium can cause arrhythmia and various electrocardiographic anomalies.
Potassium can be found in fresh fruit and vegetables. It can help with bloating as it helps the kidneys to flush out the excess salt and maintain fluid balance. Potassium plays an important role in renal filtration, reabsorption, and excretion.
