Ok, now I'm even wondering if some of the community here serves a worthy purpose, aside from judgmental opinions or statements? You do not even know me, my background, education, etc. Here is some information specifically for you: Do NOT eat organic bananas or potatoes because they contain potassium. Bananas and potatoes can not be patented but can still save the life of those who are severely potassium deficient especially in underdeveloped countries that are medically lacking. Potassium deficiency is extremely dangerous and not tested for much either. Prescription high blood pressure and diuretic medications among others can cause an extreme deficiency. The deficiency can actually cause muscles to spasm so severely that it can cause cardiac arrest. The medical/science community can and does extract potassium from natural organic sources (adding chemicals to extractions from salt water) to make prescription potassium patentable, prescribable , extremely expensive, worthy of clinical trials, and vetted. Taking the prescription though, such as K-Lor, requires blood serum levels to be monitored because too much potassium can also cause cardiac arrest (same life threatening symptoms and possible fatality). Don't take my word for it though, you can obviously read, write, and research this on your own. Don't eat a banana or any taters while researching these things though!!! They probably haven't been through clinical trials before hitting the grocery store, been vetted properly through the government, medical/science community, and big pharma and you may end up with Hyperkalemia (too high of serum blood levels of potassium), Salmonella, or E. Coli in the process.This in fact, would require you to have to go to the hospital for medical care, testing, and prescription drugs. I saved my own life for over a decade before diagnosis because I was born with an autoimmune disease that is listed with NORD (national organization of rare disorders). The medical community considers this autoimmune disease an "orphan disease". Meaning that they completely regard it as a disease that is negligible in being worthy of study, research, testing, treatment, treatment options, clinical trials, and/or a cure due to the amount of diagnosed/undiagnosed cases since it's discovery in 1927. I was the 10th medically tested and diagnosed case since 1927 and there was absolutely no medical treatment. This has been and/or was life threatening and fatal to myself and many others who have remained undiagnosed/misdiagnosed or had NO treatment options. Birth control is the number 1 cause of the acquired form of the disease meaning that it can cause the disease, unlike myself who was born with it due to a genetic immune system glitch. I have and still do help others with this same disease worldwide with testing, diagnosis, and treatment. Since I am the only one that has suffered from this specific autoimmune disease since birth, been tested and positively diagnosed, survived, developed a treatment that is organic but patentable due to the simultaneous extraction and infusion process, then I would have to say that I have expertise to the point of my own high risk medical specialists keeping records, studies, and notes of my progress and treatments. What you mentioned above requires money, time, and a lot of it. I'm a 44yr. old, widowed mother of 5 who is a survivor if you would like to continue to pass judgment. Publishing my story here is MY WAY of TRYING to share my story, experience, and this information with the medical community and other sufferers. THAT is what I AM saying. By all means, carry on putting words in the mouths of others and stick to writing about RV's (with no ads). My question was answered. Thank you!
