How can I mask the taste and/or scent of Whey Vanilla Protein Powder

I bought 1kg (2.2lbs) of vanilla flavoured whey protein powder and I absolutely despise the taste.

I've tried it in pancake, brownies, cookie and other dessert recipes, and all of them have the same strong flavour and don't taste good.

And the thing is I want to actually use it to get my money's worth and not just waste it.

What is an easy way to mask the flavour without screwing up my macros? Thank you!

NukeNutrition Potassium Supplements

Bought a pack of potassium supplements recently because I heard it can help with bloating and lowering blood pressure but I haven’t actually taken it yet after going down a rabbit hole of reddit posts and videos saying potassium can be dangerous and even “stop your heart.”

Now I’m a bit paranoid about taking it at all.

The supplement is potassium chloride, around 400mg per serving (2 tablets). I don’t have kidney disease or any known heart problems, and I’m not taking any medications that affect potassium levels. I do have asthma, but I'm not sure that really changes anything.

I know potassium is obviously essential and it’s in food like bananas, avocados, sweet potatos and stuff, but people make supplements sound terrifying

A few things I’m wondering:

Are normal potassium supplements actually risky for healthy people?

Is 400mg considered a high dose or pretty mild?

Why do people talk about potassium like it’s uniquely dangerous?

Has anyone here taken potassium supplements regularly without issues?

Not looking for medical advice, just trying to figure out whether the internet is making me irrationally anxious before I even open the pack.

Please forgive me if this a stupid question. Early March I wanted to get more active and stop sitting around all the time. I got myself a treadmill, which I've walked 10k steps daily on at 6 km/h since then except from this week, as it has been aching my legs. I've been using it for almost 2 months with little to 0 issues but over the last week I can't even walk for 10 mins without both of my legs beginning to ache, is there any solution for this?
