We have introduced Effer-K at several pharmacist, nurse and physician conferences. We always like to offer samples of Effer-K. The funny thing is - it's hard to get people to try it. Many pharmacists, physicians and nurses have tried or have seen patients try potassium chloride... which tastes very salty. So - they assume - since Effer-K is also a form of potassium repletion - it too will taste unpalatable.
What many don't immediately understand is that Effer-K is potassium citrate - the potassium found naturally in fruits. Potassium chloride is KCl. KCl is similar in structure to NaCl, sodium chloride (salt). The Cl is what contributes to the unpalatable taste. Because Effer-K does not contain Chloride - it tastes nothing like potassium chloride.
So - the lesson is - don't be afraid to try Effer-K! You might actually like it. Oh - and Effer-K is available in unflavored as well - so you can dissolve you Effer-K tablet in your beverage of choice.
