I started to try and find comparable supplements to the IP ones - GNC makes some multivitamins and Calcium-magnesium that are comparable, but I still cannot find a Potassium supplement that matches up with IP. The FORMS of the nutrients matter - most potassium supplements I've found are Potassium gluconate, but the IP ones are Potassium citrate. The citrate form is the broken-down version of gluconate form - and therefore gentler on your body. Gluconate can put additional stress on your kidneys, and this diet is already a little more taxing on your kidneys - so there is definitely a benefit to taking the citrate form.
I found the IP supplements are a bit cheaper through plainprotein.com so I've been ordering from them.
