MAYO CLINIC - DRINKING WATER

MAYO CLINIC - DRINKING WATER

This is indeed good information. A cardiologist determined that heart

attacks can be triggered by dehydration. Now I carry a bottle of water

wherever I go. aspirin is also a good idea!

 

Good Thing To Know . From The Mayo Clinic.

How many folks do you know who say they don't want to drink anything

before going to bed because they'll have to get up during the night ?

 

 

Heart Attack or Water - Drinking one glass of water before going to

bed avoids stroke or heart attack . I did not know this.

Interesting.......

 

 

Something else I didn't know ... I asked my Doctor why people need to

urinate so much at night time.

Answer from my Cardiac Doctor:

Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when you are

upright (legs swell). When you lie down and the lower body (legs and

etc) seeks level with the kidneys, it is then that the kidneys remove

the water because it is easier. I knew you need your minimum water to

help flush the toxins out of your body, but this was news to me.

Correct time to drink water... Very Important.

 

 

From A Cardiac Specialist!

Drinking water at a certain time maximizes its effectiveness on the

body:

2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs:

1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal - helps digestion:

1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure:

1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack:

 

 

I can also add to this... My Physician told me that water at bed time

will also help prevent night time leg cramps. Your leg muscles are

seeking hydration when they cramp and wake you up with Charlie Horse.

 

 

Mayo Clinic on Aspirin -

 

 

Dr. Virend Somers is a Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic who is the

lead author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of the Journal of

the American College of Cardiology.

 

 

Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 A.M. and noon.

Having one during the night, When the heart should be most at rest,

means that something unusual happened. Dr.Somers and his colleagues

have been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame.

 

1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at

night.

 

The reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life"; therefore, if most

heart attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin

would be strongest in your system.

 

2. Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest; for years.

(when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).

 

 

Please read on. Something that we can do to help ourselves - nice to know.

 

Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue.

They work much faster than the tablets.

Why keep Aspirin by your bedside? It's about Heart Attacks -

 

 

There are other symptoms of a heart attack, besides the pain on the

left arm. One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as

well as nausea and lots of sweating; however, these symptoms may also

occur less frequently.

 

 

Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.

 

The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their

sleep did not wake up.

 

However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from your deep

sleep. If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your

mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.

Afterwards: - Call 911. - Unlock front door.

 

 

Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by.

 

 

Say "heart attack!" - Say that you have taken 2 Aspirins. -

 

Take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for the

medics arrival and ........ please !!!!

 

DO NOT LIE DOWN!

A Cardiologist has stated that if each person after receiving this

e-mail, sends it to 10 people, probably one life could be saved!

 

 

I have already shared this information.

What about you?
