All about heart attacks and water//additional data

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 - I never knew all of
this ! Interesting.......

Heart Attack & Water

Something else I didn't know ... I asked my
Doctor why do 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. This then ties in with the last
statement!

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


Please pass this to the people you
care about......

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.

Subject: Mayo Clinic on Aspirin - PASS IT ON


Mayo Clinic Aspirin Dr. Virend Somers, is a
Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic, who is 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. FYI, 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. - 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 their
arrival and ...DO NOT LIE DOWN!
