If you google you can find the recipe. Just need a chunk of aloe, put in blender with a little bit of water to make a gel. Then dilute gel into water and use immediately. Aloe has to be used within 20 min from being peeled/blended. After that it loses a lot of its nutritional value

They would have to opt for organic nanas

You can also get potassium by steepping tobacco stems in water. Takes like a week to do.

Sad but true. Excellent K source if not. Keep it simple and use fish emulsion once weekly and epsoms every 3-4 weeks in it. Best I've found for safe practice.

Neptune's Harvest is hydrolysate not emulsion. Emulsion sticks to high heaven. Hydrolysate doesn't. I would never use emulsion inside. It also has more than just K in it. If I wanted mostly just K I'd use kelp or langbeinite. I do use Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed occasionally though.

I use emulsion. Above suggestion is like bottled vitamins for us. Have the vitamins and nothing needed for proper consumption metabolism. Processed out. As well as losing all the reactions nature put into the mix. Eat a banana or take a potassium supplement. Which do you think is actually improving your health?
