Potasowa

Potasowa refers to something related to potassium. In chemistry, "potasowa" is the feminine form of the Polish adjective "potasowy," meaning "potassium." This adjective is used to describe compounds where potassium is a key element. For example, "woda potasowa" translates to "potassium water" or a solution containing potassium ions.

This could include supplements or specific foods. The context in which "potasowa" is used is crucial for understanding its precise meaning, whether it pertains to a chemical compound, a mineral, or a nutritional aspect.
