Anyway is too much mag a bad idea? Is 57-62 too low?
Alcohol has been my no 1 trigger since day 1 in 2006

Why up to several grams each day, or even half a gram? Has anyone had a blood assay that reported a deficiency in magnesium, specifically, and then been told to take supplements, or just to eat a better diet

Also, unless a person is on proton pump inhibitors, for one, why would a person be getting insufficient magnesium in her diet?

One thing i learned on this site yrs ago is that blood test mag is not a true measure - its your cellular magnesium and that the rda on potassium is 4400 mg a day. A level no one achieves unless they work hard at it. I also know this. Since i stopped alcohol and increased magnesium ive had zero pvc s not tachy and my RHR is lower 58-62

Well i know we get little mag from diet. It’s impossible. I do believe that magnesium is very important for heart rythm and BP. Us afibbers can no doubt benefit from it
Ive always taken magnesium realizing its no cure. Ive also read recent cardiac opinions that avg resting HR should actually be 50-70 not 71. So my only issue was my personal change.

PS Sorry I can't get the Pdf file to hyperlink (???) but if you copy/paste the URL it will bring up the Exatest home page which is loaded with info.

Then I found an read Dr. Arthur Coca's 1956 book that talked about his experiences using pulse testing to figure out food sensitivity. Essentially he suggested taking a full one minute pulse (I found an electronic instantaneous device pulse to not give as good a signal as a one minute average) before you ate then 30 and 60 minutes after. If the after rate was more than 6 BPM higher it indicated sensitivity. If you are eating a combined meal, then you have to go back at another time and eat things individually to figure out what the offending food is. In any case, I had non subtle increases like 15-25 BPM.

also I have heard it discussed on this group that it Is 'better' to have a somewhat inconsistent heart rate.. like if you have a perfect beat to beat that isn't "normal". maybe I understood that incorrectly.

so that is super interesting and I am going to try it with eggs in the morning. But I wonder.. if BPM increases could some of that be GERD/reflux related which would still be food 'sensitivity' but not in the same way as you are saying. (I have had sensitivity testing done and I had leaky gut and probably need to reboot all that anyway.). I' have a cold right now so maybe I will test it after that is gone- but lets say you are making eggs.. I usually use oil in the pan. So.. could that be a contributor? maybe I'll make HB eggs...
edit: so reading that book you linked..if your RHR is lower partly due to medications then maybe the 84 max isn't approrpriate for indicating food sensitivities? (Only on Flec as far as rhythm now. No CCB or BB.

Low stomach acid can be a contributor to GERD. See: [www.amazon.com]
In my experience, flecainide doesn't change my HRV or my resting heart rate when I'm in NSR.
