Hi taco,c
You don't have to discontinue the Low sodium V8 juice prior to or after the ablation at all. It will continue to provide some needed potassium and other nutrients for oral Magnesium either get a good Chelated Mag Glycinate of Bys-Glycinate chelated with the Albion Labs Process as noted in the bottle. Brands like Bluebonnet, Solgar, Metagenics, Drs Best and several others meet that criteria and follow 'The Strategy' protocol you will see featured in the 'AFIB Resources' link at the top if this page. Topical Magnesium either from Anient Minerals company, or at
'Magnesium Infusion' (my favorite) are great alternatives and compliments to oral Magnesium which is challenging for many to absorb orally properly to get enough Intracellular mag level increase require to steady the heart and make the potassium work better and with much less chance if pro-arrhythmia from excess Potassium with too low an IC mag status.
You are discovering what so many of us have, that these vital heart calming minerals are a necessary beneficial life-long addition to our dietary intake and life style.
Make sure you have good on-board stores both before and after the ablation will really help the entire process including recovery from the ablation. Since your procedure us coming up soon, consider getting your IC mag levels quickly restored with a series of twice a week IV Myers cocktails containing 3grams of Magnesium Sulfate over the next month it so. A good naturopath ND or functional/integrative medicine MD will be able to do this for you.
Best wishes, Shannon
