It is also used as a potassium supplement.   Potassium is an essential nutrient. It is the most abundant cation in the intracellular fluid, where it plays a key role in maintaining cell function.  In dietary supplements, potassium is often present as potassium chloride, but many other forms\u2014including potassium citrate, phosphate, aspartate, bicarbonate, and **gluconate**\u2014are also used. Potassium gluconate is believed to be more palatable and non-acidifying than potassium chloride (KCl)."}]
