Arrhythmias Are Excess Calcium

so today we’re going to talk about arrhythmias and how they relate to excessive amounts of calcium stuck inside your cell now arrhythmias relate to a problem with the rhythm of your heart it could be a minor palpitation it could be a major atrial fibrillation but anything that is abnormal from the regular rhythm of the heartbeat it’s called arrhythmias now I will say there’s other reasons for arrhythmias like hyperthyroidism that could be one but when I’m done with this presentation all roads lead to excessive calcium inside your cells this is why one of the medications they may use for rithmatist will be a calcium channel blocker now calcium is just one of the electrolytes that you have in your body electrolytes are those electrically charged minerals that help conduct electricity through the body through the nervous system and that can activate muscles so you have sodium as an electrolyte and that can act as the spark and calcium has to do with the squeeze or contraction of the heart and then the relaxation phase is controlled by magnesium now there’s many triggers to palpitations heart arrhythmias which by the way many times occur more at night during the day but you have caffeine for example that would be obviously during the day now why would caffeine trigger an arrhythmia or a palpitation simply because it alters calcium physiology same thing with alcohol it alters calcium in the body sugar will do it stress will do it as in cortisol certain electrolytes affect calcium low vitamin D can affect calcium for sure and there’s certain chemicals in chocolate that can alter the calcium and this is why a lot of people notice that after consuming chocolate or even caffeine or alcohol or sugar or going through stress they feel like a little palpitation in the heart or the heart skips a beat things like that and then there are certain drugs that alter calcium to specifically are the antipsychotic drugs and the antidepressant drugs both drive calcium inside the cell and increase the risk for a rhythm which could actually lead to sudden death so you can look at these as triggers so now the question is how do we make sure we don’t have excessive amounts of calcium inside your cells well one of the biggest controllers are preventing calcium inside the cell would be this man right here at magnesium magnesium is one of the primary controllers of calcium and preventing too much from getting inside the cell magnesium is also involved in keeping your potassium high outside the cell when normally it’s supposed to be inside the cell and also magnesium is supposed to be inside the cell like 99% of it you’re supposed to be inside that only 1% should be outside and this leads to another problem of testing when you check your blood for magnesium levels you’re really only testing 1% of all of the body’s magnesium and this is the worst place to test magnesium you really want to do an intracellular test I will put a link down below of a good lab I had mine done recently and it did come out normal there’s also a tremendous amount of people that have a magnesium deficiency it’s subclinical so they may not have a lot of symptoms they may have one or two magnesium is also involved in keeping sodium low inside the cell as well as calcium so it wants to keep calcium and magnesium out of this cell and potassium inside the cell any type of imbalance with these electrolytes throws off the entire electrical system of the body and this is where you get like a short circuiting in effect which basically describes an arrhythmia couple reasons why you might be magnesium deficient it could be that you’re consuming too many refined carbs or sugar or have insulin resistance or you’re pre-diabetic or you’re diabetic all of those will keep magnesium allow could be that you’re not consuming enough magnesium from your diet because you don’t like vegetables by the way most of the magnesium in the food supply is in the leafy greens because green is part of the chlorophyll complex and magnesium is at the center of it there’s also a very important pump that allows these mineral exchanges to happen and each one of your cells has billions of these sodium potassium pumps and these are very important in allowing magnesium other electrolytes to be traveled through this exchange mechanism and then to reverse that if you don’t have enough magnesium potassium and sodium won’t work as well so as you can see it gets really complex but don’t worry it’s going to get more complex because there’s a vitamin k2 which also has an effect on calcium vitamin k2 helps to take the calcium which is in the wrong place in your body the soft tissues like in the heart on the nerves in the joints and the kidney and push that in back into the bone so having enough k2 can also protect excessive calcium with inside the cell also vitamin d3 helps to alter calcium and reduce the risk of arrhythmias but what I wanted to tell you in this video is that there’s a core problem with arrhythmias and it has to do with excess of calcium in the wrong place and there’s many different triggers that can cause this so what you probably should do to figure this out is to scan through the various things that I said and see if you’re doing too much caffeine too much alcohol too much sugar have too much stress or maybe you’re not getting enough magnesium which is probably one of the biggest factors or let’s see you’re low in vitamin D or you’re eating too much chocolate are you taking drugs that have side effects that’s what you need to do is look through those and see if you can correct that to put your heart back in rhythm and the other thing I would recommend is instead of trying to take one mineral to try to correct it consume food that has all the minerals in the right proportions that would be the ideal scene but you would need to consume about seven to ten cups of vegetables per day to start to build up those minerals now you can also do electrolyte powder that has all of them in there and realize that it does take some time it could take three to four possibly five months to remineralize your body if you’re very deficient don’t get about vitamin k2 and d3 as well thanks for watching and I have another video in electrolytes that you may be interested I put it right here
