Thanks tweeder!

Cool link! I was looking for something like that...I guess you are a better googler than I am...the list that I found was nowhere near as comprehensive.

Swimming (any vigorous exercise), low-carbing, and stress causes potassium loss. Three things that are in my life every day!

Random thought, but I once had a life science TA who explained that potassium ion channels are like a banana floating in the ocean - potassium inside and sodium outside. She was hot as hell though.
