you can get the pink salt from the grocery store... but if you want higher quality, i’d 100% recommend purchasing the potassium chloride and the sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) on Amazon. here are links to the brands i purchase for my SJ:
Sodium Bicarbonate by Pure Organic Ingredients (4 oz.), Baking Soda, Highest Purity, Food & USP Grade https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07543M6KC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_CtXqDbKQYTWDA
Now Foods: Potassium Chloride Powder Table Salt Substitute, 8 oz (2 pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WSP6WM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_cuXqDbR7A0XXW
these will last you SUPER long.
that’s just what i’d recommend, and you asked about buying them individually on Amazon. you’ll be fine if you use the No Salt and Arm & Hammer, but i prefer to use the highest quality products.
from what i've found online, healthy adults are supposed to get between 2600-3400 mg of potassium per day, depending on gender.
so take for example Nature Made potassium gluconate. each tablet is 550 mg but each only provides 90 mg of potassium. so to get the recommended daily amount of potassium you'd have to take either 29(F) or 38(M) of the tablets per day, which seems like an expensive and inefficient solution to me.
NoSalt however, provides 650mg of potassium per 1/4 teaspoon. the recipe on snakediet.com calls for 1 teaspoon of NoSalt which comes out to 2600 mg potassium.
mixing NoSalt in water seems much more practical than taking 29+ potassium gluconate tablets daily.

The sodium to potassium ratio is incorrect to use this product exclusively (280 mg sodium : 77 mg potassium) 3.5:1
2 liters of snake juice has 1920 mg sodium : 2560 mg potassium. Closer to 1:1.5 ratio.
This would be more expensive than buying snake juice ingredients.For the bag you listed there are 77 mg of potassium per 1 gram. So 7700mg per purchase. Snake juice is generally 2560mg potassium per 2 liters. (1 tsp potassium chloride).
So with this bag you are looking at around 6 liters of snake juice.

This group of items will last you over a month (likely two months) compared to 3-5 days for the item you are looking at (which is also not going to work due to salt ratio reasons).
