How do low potassium levels cause high blood pressure?
Low potassium levels cause the salts to get reabsorbed along the distal nephrons in the kidneys. This results in elevated blood pressure.
How can severe hyperkalemia lead to cardiac arrhythmias?
Potassium plays a pivotal role in the electrical signaling activities of cardiac muscles. A higher-than-normal level will disrupt the signaling events and lead to various arrhythmias.
How does potassium manage excess sodium levels?
A higher intake of potassium helps to eliminate the excess sodium through urine.
