interesting info. Makes sense.

MAYO CLINIC - DRINKING WATER





A cardiologist determined that heart attacks can be triggered by
dehydration.
Good Thing To Know. From The Mayo Clinic. How many folks do you know who
say they don't want to drink anything before going to bed because
they'll have to get up during the night?




Heart Attack and Water - Drinking one glass of water before going to bed
avoids stroke or heart attack. Interesting.......




Something else I didn't know ... I asked my Doctor why people need to
urinate so much at night time.




Answer from my Cardiac Doctor: Gravity holds water in the lower part of
your body when you are upright (legs swell). When you lie down and the
lower body (legs and etc) seeks level with the kidneys, it is then that
the kidneys remove the water because it is easier. I knew you need your
minimum water to help flush the toxins out of your body, but this was
news to me.




Correct time to drink water... Very Important. From A Cardiac
Specialist!




Drinking water at a certain time maximizes its effectiveness on the
body:
2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs
1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal - helps digestion
1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure
1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack




I can also add to this... My Physician told me that water at bed time
will also help prevent night time leg cramps. Your leg muscles are
seeking hydration when they cramp and wake you up with a Charlie Horse.
Mayo Clinic on Aspirin - Dr. Virend Somers is a Cardiologist from the
Mayo Clinic who is the lead author of the report in the July 29, 2008
issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 A.M. And noon.
Having one during the night, When the heart should be most at rest,
means that something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues have
been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame.




1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at
night.
The Reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life"; therefore, if most heart
attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin would be
strongest in your system.
2. Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest; for years.
(when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).
Please read on.
Something that we can do to help ourselves - nice to know. Bayer is
making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue. They work
much faster than the tablets.
Why keep Aspirin by your bedside? It's about Heart Attacks - There are
other symptoms of a heart attack, besides the pain on the left arm.One
must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and
lots of sweating; however, these symptoms may also occur less
frequently.




Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their
sleep did not wake up. However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake
you up from your deep sleep. If that happens, immediately dissolve two
aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards: - Call 911. - Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives
very close by. Say "heart attack!" - Say that you have taken 2
Aspirins. - Take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait
for their arrival and ........DO NOT LIE DOWN!




A Cardiologist has stated that if each person after receiving this
e-mail, sends it to 10 people, probably one life could be saved! I have
already shared this information. What about you? Do forward this
