We made the burger at least once a week and I always used soy sauce even though the recipe also called for lea and perrins worchester sauce (1/2 soy, half lea & perrins). Towards the end of the summer I finally bought a bottle of lea & perrins to test out in the recipe. Well, within 10 minutes after eating my burger, my heart started to beat erratically. A loud thump and then rapid heartbeats. I figured it might have something to do with the L&P, but to make absolutely certain, I added it again to the recipe a week later. Shortly after eating my burger, my heart started the same erratic racing. I didn't add it to the recipe after that and I had no more issues. Well get this...Today my mother calls me and tells me that she was in the hospital yesterday and they had to restart her heart twice because of atrial fibrillation issues which were triggered shortly after eating. I asked her to go over what she ate shortly before the meal and she said, "scrambled eggs with salt, pepper, milk and a very small amount of lea & perrins". I screamed when I heard that and told her that the sauce had to be the culprit. We went over the lea & perrins ingredients...vinegar, molasses, high fructose corn syrup, anchovies, water, onions, salt, garlic, tamarind concentrate, natural flavorings, chil pepper extract. I jumped online and researched "natural flavorings" and what do you know, it is often a cloaked term for MSG!!! Anyone with erratic heartbeat or a racing heartbeat should carefully examine the ingredients in the food they ate shortly before the episode. Maybe with the Lea & Perrins it was a combination of the MSG plus the corn syrup that caused a problem with the heart. Who knows. They now want to put a Pacemaker in my mother. Wow!

I was taking the hydrogen peroxide in the morning and the tobasco sauce killed the taste. I did get the procedure but I still wonder if I could have got by without it. The tobasco sauce was because it was the only source of Cayene pepper I had.

A close relative suffers from atrial fibrillation. I looked around for what information I could find, and on one website found this quote: "Bacteria Linked to Dangerous Heart Rhythm Patients who have atrial fibrillation (AF) (rapid, irregular rhythm in the heart's upper chambers) are 20 times more likely than others to test positive for Helicobacter *pylori* bacteria. Self-defense: If you are diagnosed with AF, you should be checked for H. *pylori*. Controlling the infection using antibiotics reduces (or eliminates) the heart problem. Annibale Sandro Montenero, MD, director, arrhythmia center, and chair of cardiology, MultiMedica General Hospital, Milan, Italy. Overactive Thyroid Tied to Irregular Heart Rhythm" Anne R." I am aware that some have used yogurt to control the H. pylori, by eating it twice daily over an extended period of time. Has anyone had any experience with this, either having both atrial fibrillation and an H. pylori infection, or having used yogurt to treat an H. pylori infection with success?

She is on a low dose beta blocker and a blood thinner as well. Her sister is 88 years old and on the same medications and vitamins listed above with atrial fib and still uses a bicycle to get around in Germany. In addition, I found a yoga exercise used for cardiac problems that is supposed to help reverse atrial fib. The exercise is to cover your left nostril of your nose with a finger of your left hand and slowly release any air in your lungs. Then switch to close the right nostril with the same left finger and breath in slowly with your left nostril for a count of 5-7 secs, then alternate and let the air out of the right nostril - continue to do this for about 10 tries. And try to do this on a daily basis or when stressed." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/atrial-fibrillation.html&name=AD_23452 /CURES/atrial-fibrillation.rss5 Tue, 03 Mar 2009 00:00:00 EST [BETTER BUT NOT CURED] RON from TAVERNIER, FL writes: "AS YOU KNOW I HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE WITH MANY HIT AND MISS THEORIES ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN MY BODY. I HAVE STUMBLED ACROSS SOME INFORMATION AND COMPARED IT TO MY CURRENT CONDITIONS ASIDE FROM THE ATRIAL FIB AND THINK I HAVE FOUND THE KEY. IT IS MY BELIEF MY ATRIAL FIB WAS CAUSED BY A TOXIC SUBSTANCE IN MY BLOOD. I HAD BEEN FOUND AS HAVING LEAKY GUT SYNDROME SOME TIME AGO AND HAVING A TOXIN IN MY BLOOD BY THOSE THAT DO BLOOD WORK WITH A MICROSCOPE. I THOUGHT LITTLE OF IT THEN AND NOW I AM STARTING TO PUT PIECES TO TOGETHER. THOSE PIECES ARE ANTIBIOTIC USE IN THE PAST, A POOR GUT FLORA, FUNGUS UNDER MY TOENAILS, POOR DIGESTION, MALABSORBTION, SINUS PROBLEMS, POST NASAL DRIP, BLOWING MY NOSE AFTER EATING, CONSTIPATION AND OR DIARREA, ITCHY SKIN RASHES THAT COME AND GO FOR NO REASON, AND SOME OTHER IRRITAIONS NOT ENOUGH TO WORRY ABOUT ALONE BUT THEN AS A WHOLE HAVE INDICATED I NEED PROBIOTICS TO REPAIR THE LEAKY GUT THAT IS LEAKING TOXINS INTO MY BLOOD STREAM. AND TO CORRECT THE OBVIOUS CANDIDASIS IN MY BODY. SINCE TAKING THE PROBIOTICS I HAVE NOTICED SOME IMPROVEMENTS IN MY BODY AND REALIZE IT CAN TAKE SOME TIME TO CORRECT THE ISSUES BUT I APPEAR TO BE ON TRACK TO CORRECTING WHAT AILS ME. FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME I THINK I HAVE REALLY HIT ON THE ROOT SOURCE OF THE ATRIL FIB PROBLEM AND THAT THE ATRIAL FIB IS A SYMPTOM OF OTHER THINGS GOING ON AND NOT THE CAUSE OF THE OFF BALANCED BODY. MY BODY CAN NOT BECOME ALKALINE WITH FOREIGN BODIES AND PATHOGENS LIVING INSIDE. NO CHRONIC CONDITION CAN BE CORRECTED UNTIL THE BODY BECOMES ALKALINE AND THAT BODY CAN NOT BECOME ALKALINE IF THE GUT FLORA IS DOMINATED BY PUTRID TOXIN CREATING BACTERIA AND THAT BODY CAN NOT CORRECT ITSELF WITH CANDIDA CAUSED BY THE MEDICAL PROFESSION GIVING OUT ANTIBIOTICS LIKE CANDY. I HAVE FOUND OUT MORE AND MORE WITH EACH PASSING DAY THAT IF ONE WANTS TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE AND A LONG LIFE THEY NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM DOCTORS UNLESS THEY HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT OR STAB WOUND OR SOMETHING SIMILAR BECAUSE OTHER THAN THAT THEY ARE PRETTY MUCH KILLING US WITH DRUGS."
