I just got a new bottle of Potassium Gluconate and the 5mg scoop that is usually included was not in it. Since I cannot convert mgs into teaspoons, could someone use their 5mg scoop and put into a teaspoon and tell me what part of a teaspoon 5 mgs is? I'm sure it doesn't have to be exact, but I just want to be close. Thank you! Louise

Louise,

A teaspoon of the NOW Foods magnesium gluconate powder contains 540 mg of elemental potassium and 1/2 teaspoon contains 270 mg.

Hello Tom,

It is only temporarily out-of-stock. On the order page you can request to be notified when the product is in stock.

Hopefully, it will just be a matter of days before iHerb has more inventory of this product.

Thanks for your support by ordering your supplements through my web site!

Hans
