so wanted to do a video in palpitations

it’s a very common thing someone sitting

there and all of a sudden the heart

skips or they get this sudden extra

pounding of the heart or elevated heart

rate and they’re like what’s going on

with my heart it can be pretty scary but

palpitations are a problem with the

rhythm of the heart and what controls

the rhythm are electrolytes okay that

would be like potassium magnesium sodium

and calcium so palpitations really are a

deficiency of these electrolytes so

either you’re not consuming enough

vegetables for example to get your

electrolytes or you’re not absorbing

these electrolytes and there’s usually

two reasons for that

one is you have insulin resistance now

again you’ve probably seen this in other

videos the key to open up the cellular

door

it’s called insulin okay one of the

purposes of insulin is to help you

absorb minerals into the cell insulin

resistance is a situation where it

doesn’t connect and it doesn’t open the

door so you become deficient in these

minerals so insulin resistance is a

common cause for heart palpitations

because you’re not absorbing these

electrolytes so even one of the symptoms

of diabetes is palpitations simply

because of the insulin resistance and

the blocking of absorption of these

electrolytes

now one more cause and that would be low

stomach acids because it takes certain

acids to absorb the minerals and that’s

why if you even look up in Merck’s

manual for example one of the medical

books of one of the side effects from

people with acid reflux and GERD is

palpitations why because you don’t have

the pH the acidity to absorb these

electrolytes which control the rhythm

alright thanks for watching hey if
