Charged particles of potassium, a crucial mineral that plays key roles in cell function, including heart rhythm, muscle contraction, and nerve transmission.

Chloride Ions

Negatively charged particles (ions) that play key roles in maintaining cell stability, transmitting nerve impulses, and regulating fluid inside and outside of cells.
