6 IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT (ARRHYTHMIA)

The Facts About Irregular Heartbeat

Worldwide, more than 100 million people suffer from irregu-

lar heartbeat. This condition is caused by a disturbance in thecreation or conduction of the electrical impulse responsible fora regular heartbeat. In some cases, these disturbances arecaused by a damaged area of the heart muscle, for example,after a heart attack. The textbooks of medicine, however, admitthat in most cases the causes of irregular heartbeat remainunknown. It is no wonder that irregular heartbeat conditionsare a growing epidemic on a worldwide scale.

Conventional medicine has invented its own diagnostic termto cover the fact that it does not know the origin of mostarrhythmias. Paroxysmal arrhythmia means nothing otherthan causes unknown. As a direct consequence, the thera-peutic options of conventional medicine are confined to treat-ing the symptoms of irregular heartbeat. Beta-blockers, cal-cium antagonists and other anti-arrhythmic drugs are given topatients in the hope that they will decrease the incidence ofirregular heartbeat. However, the most frequent known side

effect of these drugs is an increased risk for new arrhythmias!

Slow forms of arrhythmias with long pauses between heart-beats are dealt with by implanting a pacemaker. In other cases,heart muscle tissue that creates or conducts uncoordinatedelectrical impulses is cauterized (burned) and eliminated as afocus of the electrical disturbance in the heart muscle. Withoutan understanding of the primary cause of irregular heartbeat,the therapeutic approaches by conventional medicine are not

specific and frequently fail.

Modern Cellular Medicine now provides the breakthrough inour understanding of the causes, prevention and adjunct treat-nent of irregular heartbeat. The most frequent cause of irregu-lar heartbeat is a chronic deficiency of vitamins and otheressential nutrients in millions of electrical heart muscle cellsthat generate and conduct the electrical impulse responsible

Cellular Health Recommendations

for Patients With Irregular Heartbeat

In addition to my Basic Cellular Health recommendationsdescribed in Chapter One, I recommend that patientswith irregular heartbeat take the following cellular bioen-ergy factors in higher dosages (compare to heart failurerecommendations):

Vitamin C:supplies energy for the metabolism of each cell and sup-plies the bioenergy carrier molecules of the vitamin Bgroup with lifesaving cellular energy

Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12 and Biotin:bioenergy carriers of cellular metabolism and, particu-larly, for the electrical heart muscle cells responsible forthe generation and conduction of the electrical impulsefor normal heartbeat

Coenzyme Q-10:the most important element of the "respiratory chain" ofeach cell; it plays a particular role in the energy metabo-lism of heart muscle cells

Carnitine:contributes to the efficient utilization of cellular bioenergyin the "power plants" (mitochondria) of millions of heartmuscle cells

Magnesium and Calcium:required, together with potassium, for the optimum con-duction of electrical impulses during the electrical heart-beat cycle
