How To Avoid China ’ s Medicine Monopoly
I want to share a shocking statistic with you… Around 80% of all the pharmaceuticals sold in America — both prescription and over-the-counter — are manufactured in China. I’m talking about drugs for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, blood pressure and blood thinners, diuretics, aspirin, antibiotics, and a big chunk of the world’s insulin and diabetes drugs — just to name a few.1 We don’t even make penicillin anymore. The last penicillin plant in the U.S. closed its doors in 2004. Americans who rely on medicine are now almost entirely at the mercy of a country whose relations with the U.S. have become more ...

Electrolyte Imbalance and Neurologic Injury
CNS Neurol Disord Drug Targets. 2023 Feb 15. doi: 10.2174/1871527322666230215144649. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeurologic injury continues to be a debilitating worldwide disease with high morbidity and mortality. The systemic sequelae of a neural insult often lead to prolonged hospital stays and challenging nutritional demands that contribute to poorer prognoses. Clinical management of a given condition should prioritize preserving the homeostatic parameters disrupted by inflammatory response cascades following the primary insult. This focused review examines the reciprocal relationship between electrolyte disturbance ...

Pollutants In Your Salt!?
Your doctor, the media, and the medical establishment continue to warn that flavoring your food with salt will kill you. They link sodium consumption to a higher risk of high blood pressure, stroke – and of course, heart disease. As usual, the powers that be are missing the real picture… You see, salt has been part of human life for thousands of years – long before these chronic diseases became as common as they are today. Humans started adding salt to their food for more than 5,000 years. It was the most effective way to preserve food. Some historians even go as far as to credit salt for the development of human civ...

Grading of Japanese Diet Intakes by 24-Hour Urine Analysis of Taurine and Soy Isoflavones in Relation to Cardiovascular Risks
In conclusion, the higher the J score, which corresponds to Japanese dietary habits, the lower the BMI and cholesterol levels, as well as mortality rate from coronary heart disease, but the higher the average life expectancy among the Japanese. However, these higher J scorings were associated with high-salt intake and high Na/K ratios; therefore, they contributed to high blood pressure and high mortality rate caused by stroke in Japan. These results indicate that low-salt intake should be recommended to the Japanese who are consuming seafood and soy regularly in order to maintain lower blood pressure and to extend healthy ...

Predictive Capability of Metabolic Panels for Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) occurs in up to 65% of cardiac surgery patients and is associated with an increased risk for stroke and mortality. Electrolyte disturbances in sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), total calcium (Ca2+), chloride (Cl −), and magnesium (Mg2+) are predisposing factors for POAF, but these imbalances are yet to be used to predict POAF. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the development of POAF can be predicted by blood plasma ionic composition.

Comparison of Serum Selenium Levels Between Patients with Newly Diagnosed Atrial Fibrillation and Normal Controls
Biol Trace Elem Res. 2022 May 9. doi: 10.1007/s12011-022-03281-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained dysrhythmia in the elderly population. It is estimated to affect more than 30 million people worldwide. AF occurs when abnormal electrical impulses start to activate in the atria and override the heart's natural pacemaker, which can no longer control the heart's rhythm. Since atrial contractility is impaired in AF, blood flow in the atria becomes stasis over time and causes thrombus formation. This thrombus causes the risk of embolism and causes complications such as stroke. ...

Urinary element profiles and associations with cardiometabolic diseases: A cross-sectional study across ten areas in China
CONCLUSION: In China, the urinary levels of several toxic metals were significantly associated with the consumption of specific food groups and the risk of cardiometabolic diseases including diabetes and stroke.PMID:34896320 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2021.112535

Predictors of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Prospective Cohort Study
ConclusionThere are a wide range of significant epidemiological, clinical, and operative predictors for the development of post-CABG AF including older age, female gender, large LA diameter, higher CHA2DS2-VASc score, valve replacement and postoperative inotropic support. Nevertheless, further large-scale studies are still needed to confirm our findings.
