Poll: What brand/form/dose/timing of potassium do you take? What switch to?

[Rand56]

Seems like you people taking potassium gluconate tolerate it well. I'll have to try that. Both potassium citrate and potassium chloride give me stomach distress. Potassium bicarbonate I can handle but I have to make sure I take it far enough away from food so it doesn't hinder the digestion of food.

Potassium amino acide chelate has been doing me well, and I can take at least 2000 mg on days when I anticipate I may need to be making more red blood cells.

Potassium Gluconate from Holland and Barrett, here in the UK.
They come in 99mg tablets.
I was taking two a day (one morning one evening) but after a low potassium episode yesterday when i forgot to take my potassium, i have trippled my dose from today. I will probably go higher once i have had time to think it over.

anyone used Natures Bounty before?
It looks like you get an awful lot of Potasium Gluconate for your money. Is the brand any good?
