Can you cite any sources for these concerns? From what I can tell the hypothesis that potassium intake around the RDA will cause renal damage in the long term doesn’t have much evidence to single it out for worry.
I’ve been conflating vitamin K and potassium. (Teach me to go on memory.)
Fat-soluble vitamins (like vitamin K, and apparently unlike potassium) have long-term exposure health risks—they aren’t effectively regulated in the digestive system, and they build up in the body to potentially dangerous levels.
