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.
.
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!
