Pumps that pull potassium into cells and push sodium out, which drives the transmission of signals along the nerves and powers the contraction of muscles in your heart. If potassium levels are low, the body tries to hoard it, which also means hanging onto sodium. Water follows sodium, leading to an increase in the amount of water in the body and the volume of blood in circulation. This causes blood pressure to climb.
