Gitelman syndrome impacts infant development
We examined a unique case of an 18-month-old boy diagnosed with Gitelman syndrome, a rare condition leading to developmental delays.
His symptoms included psychomotor retardation and low potassium levels. Genetic tests confirmed mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, responsible for this condition.
After oral potassium supplementation, we observed remarkable improvement in his potassium levels and developmental progress. This case highlights the importance of recognizing Gitelman syndrome in young children with growth and developmental issues, as early treatment can lead to positive outcomes.

We investigated the impact of potassium arsenite on chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in two veterinary professionals. After struggling with CFS despite various treatments, they turned to a low dosage of potassium arsenite for ten days. Remarkably, both experienced a complete remission of their symptoms, and follow-up tests showed a notable improvement, including the disappearance of the bacteria from their blood.
While this suggests a potential link between bacterial infections and CFS, it's important to note that broader implications for treatment require more extensive research. This case prompts intriguing questions about the role of infections and alternative therapies in managing CFS.

Iodine provides vitality! If you reside far from the sea and cannot access high-quality seafood, ensure you take iodine supplements, particularly if you experience iodine deficiency symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, weight gain, or memory issues. I follow my endocrinologist's advice, taking Now Foods' Potassium Plus Iodine regularly. Since starting, my chronic fatigue has diminished and my mood and memory have notably improved. Iodine aids dieting by burning excess fat and enhances overall health, making hair, nails, and skin healthy.

No noticeable effect

I’ve been purchasing from iHerb for over a decade, spending thousands on supplements for fatigue. I can confirm this supplement is of good quality. However, I didn’t notice any improvement in my health after taking it for weeks. One supplement that consistently works for me is Thorne’s Advanced Nutrients multivitamin; I feel energised shortly after taking it.

Less fatigue felt

At day's end, my fatigue feels much lighter. I no longer struggle with waking up during the dark mornings, which I used to dread. I've also observed a slight, yet noticeable, improvement in my nails, which are thicker and stronger, as well as reduced hair loss. Overall, I would recommend this.

Improved overall tone
1 people found this helpful
The drug works! We live in a region with iodine deficiency, leading to chronic fatigue and irritability for my husband and me. Although we've not been taking this product long, I’ve noticed reduced irritability and improved overall tone. Initially, we took one tablet daily, then switched to half a tablet due to iodine content. The tablets are small and easy to swallow, which is important for me as I struggle with larger pills.
