let’s talk about the hidden cause of palpitations now what is a palpitation

it’s when your heartbeat races temporarily it towns flip-flops skips or

flutters and a lot of people get freaked out and they’re scared realize that most

of time it is not going to be the problem

but typically what will cause this would be a fluctuation in your blood sugars

either having high blood sugar or low blood sugar

maybe you consume some chocolate which has two stimulants theobromine and

caffeine that can trigger your heart to do certain things

caffeine especially too much will do it alcohol having a fever or having low

electrolytes potassium or magnesium can alter the rhythm of the heart but

there’s another cause of palpitations that I want to mention and that has to

do with your gallbladder there’s an interesting paper on this topic showing

the relationship between in the gallbladder and an ECG reading

electrocardiogram so in other words if you have gall stones or your gall

bladders distended the connecting to between the liver and the small

intestine is dilating or you have sludge in your gallbladder all of these can

alter the physiology of your heart that can be shown on an ECG now I don’t want

to get too far into the woods of a certain pattern that would show up in

the ECG you can look this up if you’re interested but there’s definitely a

change in the heart that occurs when there’s an issue with the gallbladder

now if someone has an abnormal ECG reading it could definitely be a problem

with the heart but it can also be a problem with the gallbladder and not the

heart now I’m just bringing this up because the last thing you’d want to do

is some massively invasive procedure and the problem is something else so I

always ask people what did you eat just before you have these palpitations and

inevitably they ate something that they normally don’t eat or for example they

consumed a lot of heavy cream or something new or chocolate or a lot of

caffeine or alcohol but some new food was

introduced into the diet that then aggravated the gallbladder and then

created these palpitations now if you haven’t seen my other videos in the

gallbladder here are some other common symptoms right ribcage pain right

underneath your right ribcage you have a fullness or a pain or it can be referred

to the right side of your head or the right eye or the right trap or the right

shoulder or the right rhomboid area which is a muscle on the right side

between this spine and your scapula now another symptom to be a

light-colored stool or your stool floats or your nauseated you get bloating

burping belching or even constipation now the bio that is made in your liver

and stored in the gall bladder is a lubricant so it prevents constipation if

you have too much bile you’ll have diarrhea if you have too little bile you

may have constipation so a lot of things can alter bile the production in the

storage anybody should just explain what vilest bile is a detergent that’s made

by your body and it’s used when you digest fats it extracts certain things

from the fat fat Soluble vitamins vitamin A E D and K it also extracts like

omega-3 fatty acids and other necessary fats for your health and it’s actually

the deficiency of bile that could potentially produce gall stones and

sluggishness so a lot of that is diet related but the point of this video is

just to make you more aware of another potential cause of your palpitations of

gall bladder if you want more information about the gall bladder I

have a lot of videos I would recommend starting with this one right here
