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 - I never knew all of this !
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. This then ties in with the last statement!
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 Aspirin Dr. Virend Somers, is a Cardiologist from
the Mayo Clinic, who is lead author of the report in the July
29, 2008 issue of the Journal of the American College of
Cardiology.
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
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. FYI, Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest,
for years, (when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).

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!

I have already shared this information. What about you?

I keep Dispirin ( soluable Aspirin) by my bed side. But there is a hitch. Too much aspirin hurts your stomach. Take aspirin only when there is a strong need for it.
