I would like to tell you a true story about a friend of mine named Jack. He is a tall slender man, very active, loves going fishing, camping, hunting, and archery. He is always active keeping himself busy.
Doctor told him to exercise, eat healthy, take your meds. He followed the doctors instructions.
He enjoys his life and loves the woods and nature. But unfortunately it happened again. He had a heart attack and this was his third. I had rushed to the hospital as soon as I heard the news.
When I got to the hospital, he was laying in bed, nurses checking his vitals, doctors coming in to check to see how he was doing, then turning around and leaveing without saying anything.
Then, one of the nurses came in and looked at his chart and said that’s the problem!
I asked, “What is the problem?”
Potassium and Magnesium Heart Attack
That is when she said that his body was lacking Potassium and Magnesium. Those two together are like flint (metaphorically speaking). They give the heart the spark that keeps the heart going and as we age our bodies run low and that is when our hearts start to have problems.
Now, as I sat there waiting quietly for hours, not knowing if my friend was going to live or die, doctors coming in and out of his room…
Not one of them ever said anything about Potassium or Magnesium.
I have had a heart attack also, and was never told of this by any of the doctors.
Why do the doctors keep this a secret?
If they truly wanted you to keep us healthy heart-wise, then just let us know.
But with this tidbit of information, we can move mountains.
You can save many lives, but it doesn’t mean you stop seeing your doctor.
It is always good to ask questions when it comes to your health.
Jack is doing really good, keeping busy as usual. Taking his Potassium and Magnesium, along with his vitamins, and he has been doing great.
I see him every once in a while, a group of us get together and do a little bit of competition of archery, he is really good at it and loves to show off. But if you are good at something you might as well show it off.
If you are being woken up at night in terrible pain and its not your heart but your legs because of cramps have no fear Potassium and Magnesium well help with that, too, and you can kill two birds with one stone.
I guess the bad thing about aging is, our body does not replenish itself like it use to.
So now we have to give it that extra boost to make it work smoothe and not get knocked out of whack from something as simple as lack of a vitamins.
Keep your self safe and still see your doctors and always ask questions when it comes to your health. We still know our own bodies and if we listen carefully it could be telling you what is going on before it happens.
