Mentor: Dr. Stephanie Hansen 

Receiving feedlot steers were fed one of four diets that contained varying amounts of supplemented potassium: control (0%), low (0.5%), medium (1.0%), and high (1.5%). Body weight and blood glucose levels were measured to determine the effect the supplementation had on the growth of the steers.
