Garcinia Cambogia is fortified with a decent amount of potassium which helps the user meet their daily requirement of this mineral to keep their body functioning at an optimal level. Besides improving some of your body functions, potassium also helps you balance the sodium ions in your cells. This in turn reduces your risk of high blood pressure and boosts your metabolism.
