EXTREME Palpitations....

[char2mar]

Hi. actually all this talk about CHOCOLATE being bad for you and the palps--- it is actually GOOD for you, your heart and your palps!
its teh SUGAR in the chocolate that causes the terror-- sugar is evil.
Cocoa or chocolate actually helps the heart, vessels (sceintific proof), and the magnesium content in chocolate is HIGH-- which reduces palps and helps heart function.
I buy 75% and 90% chocolate (only like 20-10 % sugar , so real low) bars and they help me out- greatly
the cocoa also has a chemical in it that makes you feel calm, cozy and the substance that is released from the brain when you fall in love. it increases serotonin-- and best of all its natural and not a drug.
Sugar is a drug because it is refined from its natural source and pure energy, something the nerves dont like.
once you get used to high content bittersweet chocolate--its hard to ever go back.
there is a website somewhere that lists hundreds of medical articles on teh health benefits of chocolate. my freind gave it to me but i forgot it.
also saw on the news how good chocolate is for you.
cutting the sugar out is the key. eat up! and never feel guilty!

I think I am going to get me some high grade chocolate.....my heart could use some TLC right about now.

Sorry Harry,
to hear you are having so many problems. Back in Oct. I w.as having the same problems. My PCP didn't want to deal with it finally after I pass out for the third time and was taken to the hosp. by the EMS. With me telling them to call my cardiologist. They put in a pacemaker-defiblator. I have had a couple of events but nothing very bad. My husband finally told them if I blacked out one more time and hurt my self he was going to sue. That finaally got their attention.I am on medicare too!
