Keto - low carb, low protein and high (good) fats is very different from carnivore diet keto i am sure....by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Yes, too expensive for home use. Thanks for the reminder on the links! I find it not that easy to establish my CP. Not sure if my consciousness of breathing changes it. It seems to be 13 to 15 seconds - not good, i'm diseased going by the chart.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Perhaps his team did a good search of the literature?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
George and others have pointed out the importance of breathing and averting or stopping an AF episode. This is a good video shedding some more light on the importance of appropriate breathing. I feel that changing my breathing when the heart beating gets a bit unsteady helps to return a normal beat.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Quoteallserene No diabetes ..no nothing.... I am 71 but I suffer from...nothing...so this flutter was the first thing that has ever happened to me... . So, you had a glucose tolerance test ? Even better, one with a Dr Kraft insulin survey?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
I would like to have bothby Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Looks impressive on U-Tube.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Yeah, i saw that What's the take home? One would need a gadget like that at home and test all foods consumed to make sure. At the same time a continuous glucose monitor and a insulin monitor as well, would also be most helpful.by Joe - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM

A video by Dr Ford Brewer who has AF. Go to 6:40.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
I'm not keto adapted i think. Water fasted this week for 36 hours. At the end my blood glucose was 3.8 mmol/L (68.5 mg/dL) Ketone -1.5 mmol/L. My heart felt very regular throughout and when taking BP it looked regular as well. After eating b'fast (1Ts oats,1Ts chia, 1Ts linseed, 1Ts brewers yeast, 1Ts hemp seed, 1 Ts whey, 1 Ts cocoa, blueberries 130g, little cinnamon and powdered globy Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Let us know how you get on with it, Liz. One never knows for sure unless tested beyond doubt. Any con-founders you can think of? Some allergy might be involved?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Hope your suspected heart attack wasn't one! Perhaps you might also want to find out what your coronary artery calcium score is? Louise, i hope you don't mind me asking - you don't have to answer; was your LDL measured or calculated (e.g. Friedewald method or other?) You haven't mentioned Triglycerides?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
QuoteMadeline I was on Sotalol and it was not AF as far as i know. Initially on 80mg 2x/day but i kept reducing it over time. Even the 80mg didn't make me tired like the metoprolol i was given initially. Hi Joe, How much metoprolol were you on? . Sorry Madeline, i forgot, it was in 2016 but at a guess i think it was 120mg 2x/day??? Whatever it was, it reduced my HR by about 20 to 30by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM

Can't advise. My EP told me that Flecanide will reduce/hopefully eliminate them. I've got these what i think are PACs and take 50mg of flec at night. Seems to work for me but it could be placebo as well? I do take Mg, herbal tea and a few other supplements as well - placebo?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Quotewolfpack Wolfpack - did you know that English pints are 20 fluid ounces, whereas American pints are 16 fluid ounces. So one US half pint cup is less than one UK cup. Might be worth mentioning this because there are people from all over the world on this forum. Gill Thank you for arguing for the metric system. My next pint of beer will be of the English variety. Indeed! Whyby Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Has anybody had experience with H2 water which makes Mg malate? Suspect it is inferior to Waller water for getting Mg into cells but might have other benefits?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
When i began Flec the EP put me on Atenolol. Before that i was just on Sotalol but i only took 25mg 2x/day - my chosen dosage.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Hasn't he got quite a few health problem for his age?by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
While the research is with MI i wonder how it (T3) would affect AF?by Joe - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
Had much the same effect on me. I just stopped taking it (my own advise). Later, i was asked to take Sotolol and it was bearable at 160mg 2x/day. Not long after i reduced it to by half and some time later by half again. At a low dose it didn't give me any side effects.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Isn't the half life of Eliquis 12 hours? You can work it out how long it takes to completely leave the system. It's confusing if the 12 hours is indeed the case because they recommend to take one every 12 hours. This would ramp up the level of the drug in the system? So, i hope Kate has the right info.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Possibly. Happened to me last winter as well including quit irregular heart rate but still with a P wave before each QRS complex.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
I have the Rhonda Patrick's analysis and i will get the promethease as well. Unfortunately there is a long way to go with genetics at this stage. Suspect AF is not a priority like factor 8 (hemophilia) which seems to respond well to genetic treatment. Epigenetic changes you mention make sense in some cases. Not sure it's possible to reverse them? Should be???by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Thanks George! I'll compare my 23&me results as soon as i get time.by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
I've come across this gene and it's supposed have something to do with AF/stroke risk. There are 30 more genes related to that problem - can't wait to learn more about it! Has anybody got info on the 30? Dr. Brewer also talks about reducing the risk of stroke......by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
Powerful presentation - thank you for the link!by Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
George, imagine if everybody decided to eat like you - Lots of hospital space could be used for low cost housing and doctors would have to get part time jobs I can see the value in what you are doing but i am doubtful i could do it for any length of time. Managed keto for a few weeks but i like fruit too much. My longest fast (prior to AF) was 5 or 6 days which was ok. Not game to do it now becaby Joe - AFIBBERS FORUM
