hi guys I wanted to give you a tip today

on the cardiovascular system and talk

about atrial fib you should never take

calcium supplements if you have atrial

fib okay in fact if you have any

cardiovascular issues

I wouldn’t take calcium as a supplement

because the calcium supplements are

associated with the 3.9 x increase risk

of getting atrial fib and if you already

have atrial fib you can worsen it by

taking calcium and even one of the

medications are used for blood pressure

is calcium channel blockers okay now 800

milligrams of calcium supplements can

also increase cardiovascular events

that’s heart attacks by 85% okay so

don’t take calcium if you’re at risk for

heart problems or if you already have

heart problems if you have atrial fib

that’s more of a potassium and magnesium

deficiency I’ll put a link down below

now don’t worry about the dietary

calcium for example from cheese because

that does not create the same effect and

if you’re going to take calcium always

take vitamin d3 and k2 to allow the

calcium to be mobilized through the body

so it doesn’t deposit in places that it

shouldn’t hey if you haven’t already

will keep you in the know hey that runs
