Nutrient Key Information 
Nutrient Name: 钾 Potassium, K
Nutrient Category: 矿物质 (Minerals)
Measuring Unit: mg
Nutrient Summary: 钾对于维持体液平衡具有重要作用。它也是正常细胞功能所必需的。我们需要摄入足够量的钾来维持良好的血压水平,以及增强神经传递、肌肉申缩和血管张力功能。
Nutrient Function:

  • 钾帮助调节体液平衡: 钾是细胞内部的主要阳离子,钠是细胞外部液中的主要电解质。钾和钠可以平衡身体中细胞的内外液体量。
  • 钾能帮助降低血压水平。并能够减少钠摄入量对血压的负面影响。
  • 帮助保持稳定的心跳
  • 有助于肌肉申缩
  • 有助于神经系统功能
  • 碳水化合物代谢和血糖控制
  • 减少骨质流失以增强骨骼强度并降低含钙肾结石的风险

钾 Potassium, K Interactions With Other Nutrients 
钠 Sodium, Na
High intake of sodium can lead to increased potassium excretion through urine

Sodium and potassium work together to maintain fluid balance in the body. High sodium intake can lead to increased potassium excretion through urine. Conversely, higher potassium intake can help to counteract some of the adverse effects of high sodium intake, such as high blood pressure.

镁 Magnesium, Mg
Low magnesium levels can lead to low potassium levels

Potassium is primarily involved in maintaining cell membrane potential and electrical excitability, and it is also crucial for muscle contractions.


Magnesium can influence potassium levels. It acts as a cofactor for an enzyme that helps maintain the electrochemical gradient across cell membranes by pumping sodium out of cells and potassium into cells. It also helps to retain potassium in the cell. Low magnesium level impacts getting potassium into cells and it may also cause potassium leaking from cells.

  • 根茎类蔬菜: 例如山药、土豆、红薯。
  • 藤蔓蔬菜和水果: 例如小青南瓜西葫芦(acorn winter squash)、西葫芦(zucchini)、西红柿、南瓜、黄瓜、茄子。

  • 海鲜:例如蛤蜊和三文鱼

备注:
1)虽然肉类和奶制品含有一些钾,它们被人体吸收的效果较差。
2)大多数加工后的食品,例如罐装蔬菜和午餐肉,其钾含量低于其新鲜状态时的食物。

Additional Nutrient Information
Nutrient Summary 钾对于维持体液平衡具有重要作用。它也是正常细胞功能所必需的。我们需要摄入足够量的钾来维持良好的血压水平,以及增强神经传递、肌肉申缩和血管张力功能。
Deficiency Health Effects • 中度缺钾可能会导致血压升高,增加盐敏感性、骨骼钙流失、提高肾结石风险和心血管疾病风险(尤其是中风)。
• 严重缺钾(低钾血症hypokalemia)会导致心律不齐、肌肉无力、疲倦、以及葡萄糖不耐受 glucose intolerance 以致增加患糖尿病和心血管疾病的风险。
Effects if Above Upper Limit 对于健康人(不是尿钾排泄受损患者),超过足够摄入量的过量钾会从尿液中排出,因此没有食物摄入钾的摄入量上限。

但是,如果他们的身体不能消除过多的钾,大量摄入钾补充剂可能对健康人造成急性毒性。高钾血症hyperkalemia最严重的潜在影响是心律不齐(cardiac arrhythmia)和胸痛。
