Guest guest Posted August 4, 1999 Report Share Posted August 4, 1999 I have heard about food additives which can cause heart palpitations. http://www.truthinlabeling.com/ http://www.truthinlabeling.com/adversereactions.html Another great link: http://explorepub.com/articles/darkfield.html This article suggests that a diet which promotes a alkaline body pH helps get rid of candida. I went on such a diet once for another reason, not knowing anything about candida, and my problem with it. It was the healthiest and happiest period of my life. Also, when I was in High School I went on the Atkin's Diet for one semester, and that was the only semester I had a 4.0 gpa. I was forgetful the rest of the time. I averaged a 3.4 overall in HS. But my social life was a disaster. I would like to learn more about how to control the candida overgrowth. : do tell us more about the company with such great products, I for one would not be offended if you mentioned the name and how to contact it, or recieve product information.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 1999 Report Share Posted August 11, 1999 The company's name is Melaleuca. They've been in business for 14 years, and are a Inc 500 company. Melaleuca believes in high quality products and customer satisfaction. Everything is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. I have been with them since December, and I have no complaints. In fact, I have been amazed with some of the products. The prices are really reasonable. You can go into the company as either a customer or as a no risk home-based business opportunity. I don't want to sound like a telemarketer here, so if anyone wants further information, you can call me at 316-626-7633, and I'll call you back on my dime. It's worth taking a few minutes to find out if this will work for you.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2000 Report Share Posted January 2, 2000 , I've had palpitations for years - I suspect they're a symptom of Lyme. I did have an EKG and echocardiagram which were normal. (Actually there's a long ridiculous story in there about medical screwups, but the short story is that I was fine.) Subsequent to those tests, I noticed my palpitations worsening on Flagyl. Sometimes I'd wake up with my heart pounding really hard. After 2 months on the Flagyl, the palpitations are almost gone. Congratulations on your improvement. I've been on abx's for 5 months, after 15 years misdiagnosis. I, too, am greatly improved. There have been bumps but I would say I'm up to 80% functioning as well. I just took a 2 week break from any abx. I was trying to figure out if worsening neuropathy was a side effect of Flagyl or a herx. Still not sure. Go back on Flagyl and Zith tomorrow. My energy improved vastly after a short time on Flagyl. I read that the fatigue is normally the last symptom to go. Hope you continue to improve.

I did have an EKG and echocardiagram which were normal. >> Dear & All, Daughter had palpitations regularly at first (racing pulse - even while at rest) - very scary stuff! Whew! Glad that is just about gone. We were told by LLMD's nurse that there is one consistent thing about lyme. In those who have expired & been autopsied, lyme organisms ALWAYS are found in the heart tissue. (Don't mean to frighten anyone here, just trying to share info.) One thing our LLMD wants her to take regularly is EPA (fish oil with omega oils) with GLAs (can't remember what these are or do, but they're good). This is very good for heart, nerves & brain tissue. Seemed to make an almost immediate improvement with my daughter. She is continuing her doxy, biaxin & rife treatments & is getting better & better.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Does any one get like palpitations in their head right around the temples? Kind of like what you think of when you hear the word throbbing, but without the pain. On both sides, almost can " hear " the beat. Does this make sense? It's one of those odd things that I've noticed for a while. As I'm coming to terms with the fact of having candidia, just seems like everything might be connected. Thanks, Kari Re: Heart palpitations Actually I can feel my heart palpitations, I've been on the EKG in the emergency room and watched them on the monitor as I felt them. I also observed them slowly diminish from constant PVC " s to less and less until they disappeared completely as my body assimilated the beef I had eaten before I went to the hospital. I went through this on 2 separate occasions before I became aware of candidiasis, both times I was hopeful that some explanation would be forthcoming but I was unable to obtain a diagnoses inspite of the EKG, blood tests and chest xrays. Cost $1,000 each time, after the second time I went out and bought medical books to research the cause myself. About 3 or 4 days after completing a course of erythromyacin for a sinus infection (about 6 wks. ago) my heart palpitations began to come back, but are beginning to be less frequent now that I am half way through my second bottle of " Fungal Defense " . I have come to recognize the heart palpitations as an allergic response that tells me my yeast problem is getting worse. Ron S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Kari, everything in our bodies IS connected. And because Candida wreaks havoc on the immune system, seemingly unrelated problems can show up anywhere.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Yes!! I had this last year, but as it was mostly when I got stressed, I thought it was stress-related. My partner was really worried as my heart beat also seemed to be really irregular. Now my family have heart problems but I'd never had anything before so I didn’t think anything of it, but I had tests that showed that my heartbeat IS irregular, although they said it was ok and not anything dangerous. More and more symptoms I would never thought were related - like extreme sensitivity to cigarette smoke, poor night vision - just keep popping up the more I talk to people about this on the internet. Imagine how good we'll all feel when we're better!!

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Kari, For the last 5 years, I've heard my heartbeat in my right ear. Only recently have I realized it might be candida related. I went to an ENT, had an MRI of my head, and all he could tell me was that I may be missing a thin bone that separated my carotid artery from my eardrum. He wasn't able to tell me why at all, and had never seen it before in his practice. He just said " tinnitus " and told me there was nothing he could do about it, unless I wanted surgery on my neck. so I live with it, run a fan at night so I can't hear it. Its not painful, just annoying. I just noticed recently that it gets louder when the rest of my candida symptoms flare up. weird. ~Audrey who rarely posts but reads all the time. > Does any one get like palpitations in their head right around the temples?

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 ==>Hi there. What is your name? Welcome to our group my friend. That's very well done on following the diet and doing the enema! > I did read elsewhere that lots of garlic and hawthorn berry herb can help with heart palpitations. I might have a slight heart murmur and am concerned that the die off bacteria messes with the heart valves in some way, and I want to protect my heart! ==>I have a slight heart murmur too. It is very common, and usually of no concern. However heart palpitations can be caused by natural healing which increases your heart rate to help the body deal with toxins and to effect healing. Some heart palpitations are caused by anxiety. Taking 3 deep slow breaths in a row when you get them will help switch your body over from the sympathetic to the parasympathetic system which changes the heart rate as well. Also a lack of magnesium can cause heart palpitations - ensure you are taking all of the essential supplments listed in my article. Omega 3 and all oil soluble vitamins are important for the heart as well as " good " fats such as butter, lard and coconut oil. The heart prefers good saturated fats. ==>There is no bacteria from die-off. Candida is being killed off which put more toxins into the body, but there is no bacteria created. Die-off are flu-like symptoms which are healing symptoms and detoxing. Please see the article on Natural Healing and Healing Reactions in the files to understand this better.

Well done on getting foods you can't have out of the house. Once you are off sugars, grains, etc. it takes only about 5 days for cravings to decrease. There is help for cravings if you do get them - do a site search at http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com ==>There can be a number of causes for heart palpitations, but if you did not have them before starting this diet then it is safe to assume that they are caused by healing reactions. I posted a message the last few days with a number of causes of heart palpitations - try a message archive search for it. It was written to , and the subject was selinium (spelled wrong I believe).

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 have you been tested for adrenal fatigue? or you can take either the iodine supplements id you aren't allergic or take magnesium capsules, which is what I do. I also take a Chinese herb blend for my adrenals. But, I started the magnesium before the Chinese herbs so I know that the mag works to slow the heart palps. right now I take between 400 and 500 mg a day depending how stressed out I am. nancie From: sweetenloe1 Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2008 10:30 PM hypothyroidism Subject: heart palpitations I have been getting heart palps lately. it is usually at night or after a sugary snack.

After a few days I noticed that there was a diurnal pattern to the heart palps, and that they seemed to ease around 4-5am, and so that's when I realized that it had to be my adrenals,as they're the only thing that puts out hormones according to a " time table " . I'm now on adrenal support (doc. wants to try the " natural " route with glandulars and supplements before any cortisone) and also a low glycemic diet. The sugars really stress the adrenals! After a few days on this regime the palps went away. Also, if you have adrenal fatigue, it can dramatically change the way your thyroid functions. After supporting your adrenals, you may have to totally rethink your thyroid hormone supplementation.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 you might need more thyroid meds! definately adrenal support. there is something called magnesium oil which isn't actually an oil which you rub on your skin http://www.magnesiumforlife.com really investigate high dose iodine--it is the one thing I should have had long ago. adrenals and thyroid thrive on iodine. http://www.helpmythyroid.com Gracia I have been getting heart palps lately. it is usually at night or after a sugary snack.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I pretty much take the supplements recommended by at endfatigue.com. My doctor has me on different brands, but the same basic protocol. The B vitamins are very important, and if they are low, there is probably a malabsorption in the GI tract that needs addressing. Also it's very important to balance the sodium/potassium, magnesium/calcium electrolytes with lots of water. I wish I had known about the absolute importance of these simple things years ago, it would had saved me lots of wasted years. Marla > > Which things support the adrenals?

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I've been getting off and on heart palpitations lately too. Sometimes they wake me up in the middle of the night, and I have to actually very consciously make myself relax for 5-10 minutes before my heart rate comes down again and I can get back to sleep. I take a B-Complex (NatureMade) supplement and also Magnesium, every day. I may up the Magnesium from one table a day to two; see if that helps. The B-Complex I take seems to have a LOT of beneficial B's in it. I'd hate to have to take more. Here's what is in it: Thiamin (B1) -- 50 mg Riboflavin (B2) -- 50 mg Niacin (B3) -- 50 mg Vitamin B6 -- 50 mg Folate,Folic Acid,Folacin --- 400 mcg Vitamin B12 50 mcg Biotin 50 mcg Pantothenic acid 50 mg Thoughts, anyone? Also, I have recently quit drinking, but I don't know if that has anything to do with the heart palpitations. I was not a heavy drinker: 1-2 glasses of wine a day, 5-6 days a week. I cut down slowly, too: didn't just stop cold turkey. --Diane --- flatwoodfarms <marlum@...> wrote: > I pretty much take the supplements recommended by > at > endfatigue.com.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 how much magnesium- what is the dose? if you aren't allergic to iodine or it is not contraindicated- then you might want to try a low dose of iodine a day/ it does help with heart palps from the armour /thyroid meds.

Here's what is in it: Thiamin (B1) -- 50 mg Riboflavin (B2) -- 50 mg Niacin (B3) -- 50 mg Vitamin B6 -- 50 mg Folate,Folic Acid,Folacin --- 400 mcg Vitamin B12 50 mcg Biotin 50 mcg Pantothenic acid 50 mg Thoughts, anyone? Also, I have recently quit drinking, but I don't know if that has anything to do with the heart palpitations. I was not a heavy drinker: 1-2 glasses of wine a day, 5-6 days a week. I cut down slowly, too: didn't just stop cold turkey. --Diane --- flatwoodfarms <marlum@...> wrote: > I pretty much take the supplements recommended by > at > endfatigue.com.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 not good advice on the iodine! low dose does nothing and may be an irritant. heart palps come from being undertreated and/or needing adrenal support. at one time I had heart palps all the time every day. Gracia how much magnesium- what is the dose? if you aren't allergic to iodine or it is not contraindicated- then you might want to try a low dose of iodine a day/ it does help with heart palps from the armour /thyroid meds. I take 400 to 500 mg of mag, because I am allergic to iodine. nancie From: Diane Sent: Saturday, March 29, 2008 3:21 PM hypothyroidism Subject: Re: Re: heart palpitations I've been getting off and on heart palpitations lately too. Sometimes they wake me up in the middle of the night, and I have to actually very consciously make myself relax for 5-10 minutes before my heart rate comes down again and I can get back to sleep.
