Above we talked about how the lack of potassium and oxygen causes the heart to pump blood faster. This basically means that the heart needs more effort. As a result, your heart begins to beat faster, and sometimes it misses a beat. This feeling is called heart palpitations and is usually associated with stress or anxiety.

However, palpitations may be a sign of potassium insufficiency. Your heart problem can also lead to arrhythmia. It is characterized by abnormalities in your beat and is often a symptom of an underlying heart problem. If you do not want to deal with any of these problems, we recommend regular consumption of potassium.

It’s not that hard. Bananas, oranges, and apricots are high in potassium.
