Ойын-сауық
In this video, Dr Sanjay Gupta discusses an interesting study that definitely shows a significant improvement in frequency of and symptoms from ectopic heart beats. You can speak with me via my website www.yorkcardiology.co.uk or my Facebook page: yorkcardiology@gmail.com. My name is Sanjay Gupta and i am a cardiologist in York Hospital

Thanks Doc. I've been to cardiologists for years to try and treat my with PVC's, with little sympathy and even less results. I was in emergency for the first time about two months ago after an 11hr PVC episode that would not stop. Since seeing one of your videos a month ago about magnesium, I started taking 2 tablets a day. My ectopics have pretty much disappeared, and when I do have some, they are less powerful and are less frequent. No doctor, cardiologist or GP has ever mentioned magnesium as a solution. It's an understatement to say that you have changed my life. Thank you.

In May 2021 I saw a cardiologist who told me I have "paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia." This means I have occasional racing of the heart ventricles. He tested me thoroughly with echocardiogram for heart valves (nothing wrong there), did a 24-hour Holter monitor and a radionuclide stress test which were fine other than the occasional run of ventricular tachycardia. The benzos and the constant anxiety I've had since stopping has negatively affected my heart rhythm. No one takes benzos seriously...or seems to realize that tapering slowly off them is so important. My doctor didn't even suggest tapering them when I asked to stop taking them, yet she was never held accountable, not even reprimanded. **Forgot to mention I now take magnesium and potassium supplements now which greatly affect heart if they're low.

Thank you, doctor, for sharing the results of the study. It is frightening to have one's heart making odd beats. I have had PVCs for over a decade, and more recently had an increase in PVCs as well as PVC Trigemeny, along with chest heaviness. A recent echo revealed LVH. Trust me, being along and having these odd feelings makes one very uneasy. I do not take any cardiac meds, and have had a slightly elevated blood pressure (no intervention) for a couple of decades. My recent attacks frightened me, and from out of nowhere I felt I should try some magnesium, as I also have muscle cramps. After one 300mg capsule of magnesium I felt cardiac relief, and increased it to twice a day until I felt the symptoms subside some. I feel I could benefit from an additional capsule but did not want to overdo it. Thank you so much for freely sharing information. We neglected patients appreciate it.

Can't believe I'd come back to comment that video after watching it one week ago, but I felt like I have to. My palpitations started like 3 weeks ago, and they'd become really annoying at night when I'd lay in bed, or especially after workout, when I actually felt them the most intense. Came across that video last Saturday, after looking for information for my symptoms cause I felt really worried (btw I visited my personal cardiologist too, who did all the tests and adviced me to ignore them, but literally I couldn't). So watching the video, I said OK magnesium, I can try that. I'm happy to say that after only 6 days, my palpitations started becoming less frequent and less intense til they completely vanished yesterday. This video was really helpful, thanks.

Fabulous! I'm recently diagnosed... the "white coats" are trying to force pharmaceuticals on me - I have a fabulous kinesiologist and we are "taking another path". He prescribed magnesium for me....he advised 10 caps/day (which just happens to amount to 3g, as Dr. Gupta suggests).... I haven't been taking 10 caps, but I started today!
I've been taking 200mg magnesium for about 4 years. A couple of months ago I lowered it to 100mg and then the last couple of weeks I haven't had any. For about a month now I've been feeling really weird - heaviness on the chest, very strange fatigue when exercising. Can only just make it through the day. I've only just realised it's my heart. I can feel the arrhythmia. I'm almost certain if i go back on magnesium this will clear up. Thank you so much! I didn't know what was happening to me.

After cancer treatments were done, then there has been a long road ahead of me to cope with side affects. Which eventually led to me needing a variety of supplements . I soon realized how important these are in my healing process. Magnesium helps with pain in my arms and legs. Zometa infusions are so painful. The cancer doctors have me taking calcium and vitamin D3 to help avoid cramps. Magnesium helps with many things. ❤
“I hope this was useful” absolutely! All of your videos are more than useful! Youre a Good guy! finally! We understand “why.”Thank you❣️
The amount of magnesium each patient requires varies widely. If one adds potassium, selenium, and sea salt to one’s optimal daily intake of magnesium, it will halt A-fib within a few minutes and restore one to a normal sinus rhythm. When the body electric is not functioning properly it is *always* due to an insufficiency of proper conductive minerals and oils. (Primarily omega 3s and Vitamin E containing all 8 components.) I’ve been reversing A-fib, PVCs, and any and all other arrhythmias using these (and other) minerals for years. I was my own first patient, incidentally, and was driven to become so because I knew that whatever was causing my heart irregularities was definitely *not* an insufficiency of metoprolol or any other pharmaceutical drug. Most MDs are not healers, but rather pathologists. This frustrating fact is what caused me to become a doctor who believes in and employs nutrition-based healing. Best regards. Jesse.

Hey Jess, I’ve been to the cardiologist for palpitations and random bouts of bigeminy and SVT I’ve been having. They are usually brought on when I’m panicked about something and have severe anxiety, or when lift heavy weights. They said there is no murmur and doesn’t seem to be a structural issue but the wanted to put me on beta blockers until my MRI in 8 months time!! anyways do you think I would benefit from magnesium? Last night I had sooo many bouts of NSVT that I struggled falling asleep. Just as I’d drift off I would be awoken by my heart racing and bouncing out my chest and it would prevent me from falling asleep. I also find that when these heart rhythms go crazy I usually experience twitching too! is there a correlation? Anyways at 5am I got so tired I grabbed my bottle of homemade magnesium oil and sprayed my under arms with it and took a heaped teaspoon of Brewers yeast (for the B1 and selenium) and OMG like magic I didn’t have no more palps despite me still worrying about whether it’s gonna happen they didn’t and within 5 mins I drifted off and woke up 7 hours later! even when I awoke I didn’t have any.. Please tell me what I should do. I have ready that transdermal Magnesium therapy corrects the cellular deficiency within a month and takes time to build up. What’s your recommendations?
it is delightful to find a doctor that really cares thank you again.

I'm a 30 year old female, I have had Supraventricular Tachycardia along with palpitations and pvcs since age 9. Seen cardiologist at 9yrs old with echos done every 6 months plus holter monitors and stress tests. My last visit was age 22 with all well only thing I suffered was extreme anxiety and panick attacks due to having this heart condition my whole life.. only thing I take is Klonopin for the anxiety it helps but now that I'm 30 I'm getting more PVCs/ skips than ever before and my anxiety is terrible i fear my heart will stop or I will die from this. I go back for another echo and 48 hr holter on the 9th of June. I am now trying this magnesium to see if it helps me until I get my tests redone. I pray it helps. I started at a low dose of 250mg magnesium. Thank you

Miranda: If your doctor and Gupta says that if there's nothing structurally wrong with your heart, you should be okay. You (or I) won't suffer a heart attack. But having palpitations is super annoying for sure. I wore a Holter for 2 weeks this summer and it showed nothing significant. My resting (sleeping) bpm is 55. He also mentioned stress. I think I stress out over many things and don't even realize it. Knowing this, now, when I hit the internet, I tend to skip things like news and current events because they're stressful. Only happy things for me. What else am I doing to reduce stress? I take naps (I'm 68 and retired so I can do those things in the middle of the day). I also started to take 500 mg of Magnesium Citrate/day along with a multi-vitamin - we'll see how that goes. I stretch. I'm determined to get into side and front splits. I ride my bicycle every other day, usually for an hour or so, sometimes for longer. I've reduced my caffeine intake. I don't smoke (I quit decades ago). I don't drink. I try to limit my fat intake though I love junk food. I've increased my vegetable and salad intake. I've done all the things I'm supposed to do to stay healthy and still I get palpitations. My goal is not to live like a monk but to ditch all the things in my life that stress my body and mind, especially my mind. You're only 30. Though you may doubt it sometimes, you have a long life ahead of you. Of this I'm confident, based upon my own experience. I've watched many of Dr. Gupta's videos and I tend to trust him. I think his advice is good. He's not trying to sell me anything but common sense advice based on the best medical evidence that's out there.

Hello Dr. Gupta: I want to thank you for your candid here and for your genuine care for people regarding ectopic heartbeats. It is so refreshing to see. I have been experiencing ectopic heart beats for some time now and when I came across this youtube video, it gave me hope. So I proceeded to take Magnesium tables by Blackmores called MagMin. Looking at the ingredients it says Magnesium aspartate dihydrate. I cannot find any magnesium pidolate here in Australia. However when I took Magnesium aspartate(1 tablet is 500mg), I felt rather wired, excitable. It is hard to explain but when I searched for aspartate and glutamate are excitatory neurotransmitters and can potentially stimulate neurons which I think is what I am feeling(wired). It seems to calm my palpitations however. With that said, I would like to look for other magnesium supplements that does not excite my neurons. There are so many MAgnesium types out there. Can you recommend which one would be appropriate please? Thank you.

Just to add my own anecdotal 'evidence' to magnesium as a treatment, I have had 'classic' AF since 1995 and had a stroke 18 months ago. (ischaemic, affecting speech, right hand and right face etc). I started taking magnesium having seen your video and whether it is coincidence or not, since I started the Mg I have been feeling substantially better, not least in the post stroke exhaustion I had been suffering from. I think everyone should at least try it and see if it helps them. Of course, stick to the basic treatments for rate or rhythm control and the anticoagulant treatments, but magnesium is unlikely to do you any harm and could provide improvement.

Dr. Gupta I have a mitral value diagnosed in my early 20's. Overtime when I got anxious, lack of sleep I would feel like I was going to pass out. Because I have no healthcare I had to find natural ways to stay healthy. I am now 61. I have had a lot of significant stressful events. In a period of 10 years. The death and illness with my parents, divorce, job loss, moving, loss of additional relationships. I did admit myself to a psych unit due to depression. Overall I am healthy but my value acts up. I have enjoyed the you tube videos which has educating me about magnesium and mitral value. I am passionate about wellness and always doing research how I can improve my health. At this time I do have healthcare so I am going to medical professionals for something I have not addressed. I will keep watching.
I am a firm believer in Magnesium. I currently take Glycinate which I read is the form the body absorbs the best. I started taking for migraine headaches, high blood pressure and heart palpitations. The problem I have is that I need to take at least 800 mg to eliminate symptoms, but I get bloating/gas and diarrhea. So, I alternate the dosage every few days, lower to 400-600 mg for a few days, increase for a few days, then back down again... I have tried many other Magnesium forms, but it seems that my body tolerates Glycinate the best. I have not tried Pidolate yet.

@Ahmed Noor I took it for a couple of months, but I later found out that it wasn't just magnesium. It was potassium AND magnesium that I needed. In fact, I think potassium was more important for me than the magnesium. You rarely hear people recommend upping potassium but that was really what helped tremendously. I got most of my potassium from eating 2-3 salads per day (leafy greens), Dr Berg's (youtube) electrolyte powder and drinking wheat grass powder. Be careful of trying to get it from bananas because they are loaded in sugar. Cutting sugar also helps.

There are 350 benefits from taking magnesium, but you need to take the right type. Magnesium Oxide is only absorbed 4% of 400mg. Magnesium Glycinate Lysinate Chelate has a high absorption rate. This is what I take (400mg twice a day). Also, L-Arginine is very good suppliment. Note, always talk to your Physician before taking L-Arginine because there are situations after a cardiac procedure where the Physician might want you to stop for a period of time. L-Arginine is another suppliment that is overlooked. It is a amino acid nateraly produced in your body, but disapates as you get older. It can also replace ED meds.

I am using magnesium oil topically and it ALWAYS stops the PVCs when they start up again. I don't like taking anything on a regular basis so do not use the spray regularly either, but applying the oil to the skin results in a very fast uptake by the body and I feel the effect in under 20 minutes after I have sprayed my arms. I will then continue 3 times a day for a few days and then stop again. Care should be taken when applying the "oil" at night as it produces an increase in energy as well! Thank you for your videos! My cardiologist told me I have a healthy heart and not to worry, but it is good to get a "2nd opinion" without being put on a long waiting list ;-)
I tried Magnesium in various formulations throughout the years without much success for my frequent PVC'S. My cardiologist I think got tired of trying to convince me that they were not pathologic even when I was regularly having 9 to 18 per minute with a pulse in the low to mid 50's--I showed him Apple watch EKG's to document it. Hard to get to sleep with the frequent bounding high volume beats after the delay. I'm always amazed at how many people are not aware of them. I had two Holter monitors. And I have had 4 brief episodes of atrial fibrillation which has completely disappeared for the past 2 years . But the cardiologist finally recommended an old drug called flecainide for the PVC's which in 24 hours reduced the PVC'S to 0 to 2 per minute--just checked my Apple watch and am having zero. Changed my life. The drug has lots of contraindications so be sure to consult with cardiologist. For example, it is NOT recommended for atrial fib or if you have bundle branch blocks.
