"A temporary decrease in potassium may not cause any symptoms. For example, if you sweat a lot from a hard workout, your potassium levels may normalize after eating a meal or drinking electrolytes before any damage is done.

However, severe deficiencies can be life-threatening. Signs of a potassium deficiency include:

extreme fatigue

muscle spasms, weakness, or cramping

irregular heartbeat

constipation, nausea, or vomiting

"
