Are you going to dissolve potassium or you're planning ASG?
Here's what I've found http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...ng-supplements
and this http://genderdreaming.com/forum/show...ight=potassium
I know girls are recommending coconut water but I have no idea what is that nor I can buy it here.Last edited by Zivic-Bubac; July 14th, 2011 at 04:42 PM.

Or you're taking COT?
COT is only af->O, 1 teaspoon COT= 495 mg of potassium. You need to build up gradually. Maximum is 7tsp of COT/day, but I guess natural sources of potassium like coconut water are better. m/c 2001

I'd do AF-O if you are attempting to get pg. I would do either COT drink like ZB said, or the Alka Seltzer Gold, which is what I drink. I found some flavored coconut water that isn't as gross tasting as regular. I mix my wheatgrass powder in there sometimes.

I would only do this 1x a day ... I did 2 cups of the low-sod hot and spicy v8, with 3tbs BYF, and my total was 2600 for potassium, and 20g protein. I also added a ton of salt!

Oh and I did this drink daily not just af-o!
FWIW I would stay away from COT if you can ... I never tried it bc everything I read just said it was nasty and gave them the runs! Yuck! At least V8 and BYF/NYF gives you some actual vitamins, protein, servings of veg, etc. Seemed like a much better choice for ttc boy to me.

I don't think i will drink COT. I ordered some ural (still not here hallooo!) and some ASG . Also I drink every day V8 spicy low sodium (add salt here) and V8 fusion they are high in potassium.
Yeah don't get me started on the party pooper coconut water! I got some because ppl are like it's so good! Aha! It's taste like sugar water or even worse . not for me
