Even though you may have seen the following umpteenth times, it will not
hurt you to read it once more. We cannot ever be refreshed enough about
things that can drastically affect our lives. Once we're into our 40's it's
imperative to be on our guard at all times. Playing possum can turn out to
be real.
MAYO CLINIC - DRINKING WATER
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!
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 and Water - Drink 1 glass of water before going to bed avoids
stroke or heart attack! I never knew all of 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 a 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. 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. This is
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. - Phone a neighbour 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 arrival and........ 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?
Do forward this message. It may save lives! "Life is a onetime gift" (Let's
forward and hope this will help save some!!!) If you've seen this before,
reading it again will just reinforce it!
