I had heart palpitations. Felt like a flip flop in my chest. Went to a doctor, no heart issues found. Went to a health food store, the lady recommended magnesium - they were completely gone the next day 😮 This man speaks truth. ❤ Thank you
It sounds like what you're describing is a cardiac cough reflex or sternutatory syncope. If you felt an urge to cough after, then I believe this might be the case. Palpitations are more often a pounding sensation with every beat, but it is also an umbrella term to cover heart beat related issues such as a feeling of skipped beats. I am not recommending anything here, just sharing what I know, I am glad Magnesium worked for you :)
Same. I had bad palpitations for about a month, doctor sent me to heart specialist, who couldn't find anything wrong, and offered no possible reasons why it was happening. It just happens, apparently. 🙈 He never mentioned Magnesium or any other minerals or vitamins. Went home, did research, and started taking Magnesium. Palpitations GONE. So much for the 'experts' 🤯
I was registering 30 thousand palpitations a day in 2017. I was 25. I wore a heart monitor for two weeks. Took an echo, no diformities found. Though, my heart is enlarged due to crazy drug use in my early twenties. I thought I was gonna die. I thought I had heart disease of some kind for sure. I was stressed to the max. I was losing my house, my girlfriend and my job fired me and I was flat broke. I went homeless for a couple months after that but I'm 31 now and the palps are gone for the most part. I get them here and there but not for a prolonged period of time. I got a therapist, finished my degree and got on some vitamins and started eating more salads and exercising a little more. The biggest thing that helps when you have them is to make yourself believe that you will get through this and that you're not gonna die. If you start believing this is the beginning of the end, then it might be. Choose to believe you will get better no matter how bad it gets!
@@ryancooper4618you're still here. Close your eyes, take a deep breath and try not to focus on the palpitations. The more you focus, the worse it gets. Your heart is strong. It's the strongest muscle in your body. It is built to withstand even the heaviest amounts of stress. I got through it & so will you. Just find a way to remain calm & trust that the help you receive will heal you. Good luck & God bless.
@ryancooper4618 I replied right when you said this but it looks like it didn't go through. Sorry about that. Take a deep breath in and out and try not to focus on the palpitations. Just remember that your heart is the strongest muscle in your body & it is meant to withstand even the heaviest amounts of stress. Trust that the help you receive will heal you. I know its scary to be alone when you have heart problems & you don't wanna be a burden on people but you need support. Reach out to whoever you think can calm your nervous system and make you feel better. Good luck & God bless. I'm assuming you're still with us & that's a sign you will get through this. If I can, you can.
@@Drberg Can you tell me what I need to do if I have Hyperthyroidism and experiencing palpitations? I don't have it treated with any medications and I don't have health insurance. Not sure what to do because I'm pretty solid with everything else Dr. Berg listed.
I told my doc about the palpitations he said " not serious just extra heart beat" offered no solution! End of consultation! Thanks so much Dr Berg ! You are one who really cares! ❤
Omg yes! I had palpitations for more than an hour. The ECG on my Apple watch even notified me that I might have AFib. I was so worried and scared & went straight to the emergency. They checked my blood pressure, ECG & took a blood test and the results came out fine. I explained to them that I'm a heavy smoker, wondering maybe if that was the reason why I got the palpitations & the doctor didn't even bother to give a comment about that. He was just like "You're fine. The blood test results are all fine. Don't worry. There's no sign of a heart attack"
I had heart palpitations for years. Docs could never find anything wrong. Had to figure it out on my own. Everytime I ate bread I had heart palpitations. I was young (in my 20s) and thought it was just anxiety. I did have severe anxiety which was a nightmare in itself. Docs never diagnosed me with anxiety so I never took meds for it. Thank God! Started listening to my body in my 40s. Went to school for holistic nutrition and now at 60 I believe I'm healthier than ever. I thank God everyday 🙏 And Dr. Berg is a gem❤
im 25 and i get heart palpitations when i eat bread too! or overall if i have carbs but mostly ive realized it happens when i eat bread in specific. i also thought it was just anxiety as well which i may have that but im not sure, what have you concluded with your study in holistic nutrition? im currently on a layed back carnivore diet and its helped a bunch
@@aromaCS I'm on a layed back carnivore also. It has helped with everything. Hormone imbalance etc. My schooling taught me about getting to the root cause of illness or dis-ease. It's all about food and how we are all different. One size does not fit all so to speak. I went to school because docs could not help me. They don't know nutrition. You are probably sensitive or allergic to wheat. Carnivore does wonders for your gut.
+ overhydration (drinking too much water) can cause palpitations as well because it drains out most of electrolytes from body through urination, which are essential for regular heartbeat.
YESSSSSSS I have afib and I would end up in the hospital 🏥 MY potassium WAS always low BUT in normal rage BUT when MY potassium goes under 4.0 it triggers MY heart ♥️ into palpitations or episode OR NIGHTMARE afib! I even take 3 potassium pills 💊 a day because I ONLY drink water 💦 it WAS flushing out all MY electrolytes 👈🏻 I need to try magnesium again I’m just SO SCARED 😱 of pills 💊 I have ptsd over pills 💊 because that’s what caused ME to get afib condition 😭
Diuretics, such as Furosemide, trade name Lasix and others flush out fluids from the body along with vital nutrients and electrolytes which, as stated, are necessary for maintaining heart rhythm. Pterostilbene, found in berries and grapes and also as a supplement, will flush out water but not the nutrients and electrolytes. Aquaretics, I found about 2 1/2 years ago is suppose to flush water only but I prefer the natural approach.
@@CYndibabI look up “Ancient Minerals Magnesium Spray” you just spray it on to your skin, I do about 15-20 sprays a day and it soaks in BETTER transdermally (through your skin) than by supplements and ZERO worry about upset stomach too! It’s been a life saver for me. 👍🏼
@@CYndibabI The RDA for Potassium is between 3500 mg and 4700 mg .....and the Potassium in OTC supplements is ONLY 99 mg ea as required by law .... AND LOW Potassium can definitely be associated with heart palpations - as that happened to me - as can low Magnesium. Taking Magnesium supplements resolved a lot of problems - including palpitations AND muscle soreness and muscle cramps - and it is a very commonly used supplement that can even make one feel calmer. Do some research on it as there are different types. I started taking "Magnesium Malate" about 2 years ago when I suddenly developed severe muscle cramps that would not stop with the other type of Magnesium I took. I looked up which Magnesium is best suited for Muscle cramps - and ordered *Magnesium Malate* - and FINALLY after 10 days of ongoing debilitating muscle cramps - the next day, after taking it, 90% of my problems were resolved with "Malate" that cheaper versions of magnesium could not " fix " ... and a few days later, these severe muscle cramps - WERE GONE.
I also was having palpitations so bad at night that it would wake me up. Ended up in the emergency room twice. I researched and saw where you recommended magnesium glycinate. Started eating properly and started the magnesium and now my heart is beating normal again and I am losing weight. I feel so much better. Thank you
Had palpitations so bad I wore a heart monitor for 24 hours only for the cardiologist to say there’s nothing wrong with my heart. Started taking magnesium a few months ago and the palpitations are gone and sleep has improved so much.
If you had a bad response from the vaccine your system had an issue beforehand and the vaccine brought it to the forefront. You have people who wolf down mcdonalds for lunch and dinner DAILY saying the vaccine made them sick. 😂😂😂😂
Ive had palpitations since i was younger. I believe the main reason for them is stress/anxiety. You may not even know that you are anxious until you try some kind of meditation/ relaxation techniques. Then you realise youve been stressed for so long without realising. Drink plenty sleep plenty meditate and supplement according. Works for me 😁
Months back I started a triple blend of magnesium malate, glycerinate, and citrate and it has made a world of difference with my palpitations. About 95% better!!!
@@chinnukumar3103 no, but I went on hormone replacement therapy so that got rid of it pretty much. A lot of people are afraid of HRT but really if you think about it if you are low in thyroid hormone we take it or if we don’t have insulin then we take it. Why wouldn’t we do the same with our other hormones? Also, new guidelines that came out this year say it’s protective against all sort of things.
I had palpitations on and off for ten years. My wife was recording what she ate in My Fitness Pal, so I started to also. After three months I discovered that it was collecting data for sodium intake. Mine was very low, probably because we cook all of our meals from scratch. I began to salt my meals immediately and my palpitations went away within two days… forever.
3 Years ago my cardiologist said I had an irregular heartbeat. But, the problem would go away in the summer. He didn't believe it. Finally and ER doctor told me it was the vagus nerve. Stimulating the sternum with massage relieved the sensation. However, the list that Dr. Berg gave was almost everything I was doing wrong. Following Keto has alleviated the palpitation "almost" entirely. I went back for an annual 2 days ago and the cardiologist just shook his head an smiled. He couldn't believe how my health improved. Thank you Dr. Berg!
After 30 months on keto + IF, I had my 1st afib episode 2 weeks ago. I see a cardiologist in a couple of days to discuss what happened and what treatment will be needed. I've had palpitations for almost 15 years and actually took atenolol the last dozen years for it. For now they have me on eliquis and cardizem.
@@patrickdezenzio4988 I take same blood thinner pill 💊 for MY nightmare afib! how do YOU do on the cardizem pill 💊 what MG do YOU take plus how often do YOU take cardizem a day? how often do YOU get afib? sorry for all the questions 🤍
Mine was caused by severe stress and anxiety and I did not know it. I thought it was some bad health condition and made it worse by not listening to my doctor because I was convinced something was wrong when he told me there was nothing wrong with me. This also lead to shortness of breath. I learned it was all in my head! You brain is a powerful thing if you tell your self something is wrong with you your brain will make it so.
I’m from India and I’ve been suffering from heart palpitations for the past 4 years. It’s scary and feels exactly like a heart attack! However, thanks, Dr. Berg for explaining the possible cure for my condition! Your videos are very informative!
I felt like crying because I have IBS and cardiac doctors never believe how much this has to do with palpitations and even introduced them to Romeheld syndrome (I know it’s misspelled) OMG thank you so much . My doctors are old school !!!!
Another great video Dr. Berg! I have started taking Magnesium Glycinate for 6 months or so now. I did not have palpitations but my overall strength and well-being has definitely improved.
Every night I feel like my hart beats very irregularly, skipping beats or going to fast, chest pain and difficulty breathing. To the point where I was actually thinking I was about to get a hart attack. Doc says there’s nothing with my hart so this video came at a good time for me.
I believe in adequate rest after exercise, on the account the heart is a muscle that never rests. Your lungs are just as important to exercise as they work together. Thank you, Dr. Berg.
@@Drberg great 👍🏻 video can YOU also do a video (which I know you’ve done video’s on before but do a NEW one please of atrial fibrillation/afib) 🙏🏻 pleaseeeeeee

I suffered severe feet and shin cramps for last 3 months. My blood work showed all my minerals were normal. but in desparation I began taking a magneaium complex and zinc - cramps disappeared within 48 hours!
Wonder to read!+ thank you I have endured brutal awakening from a deep sleep by foot/toe/shin cramps on 11 for pain, and i know what pain is I've torn almost every ligament off the ankle internally in a high fall from working trimming coconut palms...the pain is comparable and I am now committed to change via supps and my Kale from garden that I don't eat enough of!** Thx Doc as well!!!:)
Me and my family have palpitations, the cardiologist found nothing on me. I'm gluten free, dont est sulphites due to severe intestinal issues after.some doctors said I was taking too much natural thyroid medication. Started taking magnesium tab at night to help me go to the bathroom better. I was talking to a coworker and she said magnesium made her palpitations stop ...that's when I realized that mine had also stopped. Wish I figured this out while my mom was still alive, this would have helped her.
I had horrible heart palpitations for a couple of years. After spending tens of thousands of dollars on "specialists" I went to a natropath. He figured out that I had so much scar tissue around an old back injury that it was strangling my nerves and effecting the vagus nerve. After many months of him breaking up that scar tissue they went away. It felt like a miracle. Menopause can cause heart palps too.
This gives me hope. I have had problems with high blood pressure in the past years. Last night I felt my heart like a bum that woke me up. It went away after. I hope it was only palpitations. Thank you Doctor Berg. You are a true Hero for everybody.
I have palpitations horribly. Dr's can never find anything wrong and pass it off as normal, meanwhile, I'm over here feeling like I'm dying. Im gonna try most of these things, hope it works.
@@alexteo4230 sometimes, especially if i eat junk food. But many times i just have them throughout the day. Cant really pin it to any particular external situation. Ive done many restrictive diets and i usually have palpitations though all of them.
@@toughlovesuccess777 If it's only after meal, most probably have high blood sugar cause of insulin resistance/diabetes/low insulin production. Pancreas has showing a stress symptoms. Enzymes & blood glucose pills will help? Please do update me if you find it helps you
Going ultra-low carb, eliminating all seed oils, and eating a lot of fatty meats (fatty cuts of beef and fatty chicken quarters) and arugula salads has made my heart palpitations and a host of other chronic pain and nervous system symptoms vanish completely.
Just before my 74th birthday I'd suffered a stroke...I did have palpitations prior but I thought was due to me losing my husband...but after the stroke I was told I've got heart failure Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction 😮
I had heart palpitations almost every day for 2 and a half years following an emotional burn out. I was juggling a demanding full time job as well as being the main carer for my dad. I ended up with bad anxiety and that triggered the palpitations. I went from being healthy with no palpitations, to extreme anxiety, over sensitivity and strange electrical pulses down my spine. It was the worst time of my life and at one stage I thought it would never end. I also had extreme dread that something bad was always going to happen. I was also afraid to go out in the dark. Thankfully I'm now on the road to recovery with palpitations only occasionally. The sensitivity has now gone and I am no longer afraid to go out at night. Incidentally I take magnesium daily.
@@bunnybubs757try taking about 250-500 mgs of glycinate. If you get too much it will cause mild diarhea , then just lower the dose. I found this info in one of dr berg’s video’s about magnesium. I’d go watch it , lot’s of great info!
Very glad emf’s were included, and his own experience with home wiring. The material the headboard is made from also matters especially if metal, particle board. Solid painted wood is better. Iron worse. ( in wrought iron) Glad he covered so much on this. Great information!
I had palpitations when I was in my early 50´s and I went for a stress test and found out I had left bundle branch blockage and was put on a beta blocker. I took it for a quite a few years never seeing a doctor or a cardiologist in all that time. Last summer I did a bit of research and found out that heart palpitations are quite common in menopause so I thought I would cut my pills in half and see what happens. Nothing changed so after 6 months I completely quit taking them and 5 months in I’m still fine. I’m sure I still have LBBB but symptom free as is the case in a few of my siblings. The changes I made were adding magnesium bisglycinate and upping my vitamin d3 to 5-10,000 mg per day along with K2 and daily exercise as well. I’m 64 now and feeling great ! Do your own research as well as consulting with your doctor , you know your body best !
I have that same thing. They never gave me anything for it. I was smoking, drinking beer and eating crap foods. It never bothered me, but I stopped smoking January 2022, and am taking better care of my health. All of a sudden my glucose number is high and my triglycerides are high. 😠
Yes, I'm 41 and I started having palpitations the exact day of my birthday funny enough. After reading a bunch and several doctor visits, I think I'm beginning menopause, premenopause. They seem to only happen when I'm having my period, so definitely think there's a connection
@@jna9888 I am doing low carb. My glucose was 119 and triglycerides were 172. I still like a few cold ones now & again. That's what's causing it. I stop and then there's a festival so I get social with a few brews. It's not the food. I eat good AND exercise. It's my beer. 😭
It's important to stay hydrated. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables to get potassium and magnesium is spot on. Had to go to the ER once due to palpitations and blood work showed it was low potassium. Since then per doctor recommendation I eat a banana in the morning and supplement low dose magnesium and potassium at night.
Supplementing magnesium made my chronic headaches go away. Before that, I would wake up in the middle of the night with "the worst headache you've ever had" from degenerative disc disease. I still had chronic pain, but stopped getting those headaches. I also had hypertension. Keto and fasting reduced that chronic pain and the hypertension, but I started keto for onset of type two diabetes a few years after serendipitously discovering magnesium.
@@chillnspace777 When I started, it was magnesium oxide from Costco, and it actually worked. It's supposed to be the crappiest from, so I switched to magnesium malate. Then I learned about various other forms of magnesium and added magnesium threonate, because I have degenerative disc disease and wanted any cognitive benefits too. Then I found what I really wanted was a magnesium complex, so I get a complex with magnesium malate, glycinate, orotate and taurate, which I take with meals, in addition to the magnesium threonate I still take in the morning and the evening. If I need to relax and/or fight inflammation in particular, I'll take magnesium glycinate standalone. When fasting, I don't take the complex and instead I take an electrolyte supplement from Redmond Life.
I like to share how I finally got rid of my PVC's. More than 3 years I struggled with irregular heartbeats. I tried everything besides living an active and healthy life. My heart was examined by a cardiologist and found nothing abnormal but 24 hour holter test showed 10% of my heartbeats where irregular. That's a lot! After all this years I finally accepted them and learned to live with them although they are always in your chest and therefore in the back of your mind. Then out of nowhere I decided to stop taking my Centrum multivitamin that I was taking for all those years. Guess what, my heart completely came to rest, not all the way I mean but all the extra pulses originating in the ventricles stopped. I hope you can benefit from my experience. I wish you well and a happy healthy life.
I went keto and carnivore, developed tinnitus and vertigo and they found extra heartbeat. So now i had heart palpitations and also diagnosed SVT. I also have gallbladder problem that might be causing me to have heart palpitate and also going through perimenopause. I have them all. So now, i made sure i have enough minerals and electrolytes and it helps reduce palpitations. I just have to take care of my gallbladder hopefully it will go away but with perimenopause it might not. Hang in there everyone. Keep eating healthy, drink water and lemon water, exercise and have faith in the Lord Jesus that He will heal you.
I have reduced my caffeine levels down to about 100-150mg per day and have stopped drinking anything with caffeine after noon / lunch. I have started sleeping better, longer, falling asleep easier, and have way less palpitations. I still get them once in a blue moon, but my stress levels are rather high due to my wife's health and other factors. I hope after her upcoming major surgery in June will help reduce my stress.
I had palpitations and a slight arrythmia a few years ago. Cardiologist told me to take magnesium, which I did, one capsule daily. No more palpitations.
I have reduced my Coffee consumption to 1 a day...Beer is out...Wine once A WEEK...Plus I've been taking Smoothies...And reduced my Workload to 32 hrs a week..INSTEAD of 40 hrs..
I was diagnosed with SVT = SupraVentricularTacycardia, back in 2017 when we were moving! The drugs the docs wanted to give me were VERY toxic and I said no. Fortunately I found a gal who cured herself naturally, so I gave up the coffee, chocolate, basically all sweets and here I am today with absolutely NO palpitations at all! Thanks for this important video Dr. Berg ~ I love you!
I had heart ablation for svt. It didn't work the first time so I had it redone. They were very surprised to find an unusual extra pathway and it took a much larger dose than normal to speed my heart up to 300 bpm to highlight this pathway. That was 9 years ago and thankfully it worked. A very interesting procedure (never realised how cold the operating room would be and was better prepared wearing fluffy socks and gloves the second time)
I literally just came here to say this same thing! But again, women's health is often not taken into consideration. I was going into SVT (tachycardia) thanks to perimeno/menopause. Once I went on HRT, the tachycardia stopped!!!!! Doctors, please start considering womens health!
I had increasingly disturbing palpitations over the years, I always thought it was hereditary because both my grandmother and mother had the same. Turns out, when I quit eating wheat the palpitations disappeared and have never returned. Wheat is truly poison.
I have SVT, and GERD. Super annoying, But both are treated, and I STILL get random palpitations that last anywhere from around 2 second to 5 seconds. Hours apart to months apart. This info was super helpful! 🙌
Hey I have SVT also, have had it my entire life. I got good at doing the valsalma maneuver and can usually stop it within minutes but I’ve had it last 12 hours at 160bpm when I was a kid and too scared to wake my parents up. Anyways I get palpitations regularly and noticed they subside when I get some good burps out. Do you have any info on this or advice on SVTs?
@@creektopfarms5217 low sugar diet, don't go too crazy on excercise but definitely do excercise, avoid stimulants at all costs! (Example, Caffeine). I also take a daily vitamin as well as Omega-3 and magnesium supplements. Hope that helps!
I was unknowingly taking excessive D3 which depleted magnesium. Another issue was not drinking milk which does help heart rhythm. My doctors did not suggest Mg testing; so guess I will be assertive and request the test. Most docs don’t seem to know the source of med diagnoses can be vitamins and minerals unless they take initiative to learn like Dr Berg. Great job doc.
I had heart palpitations all my life until age 48 when I learned how toxic our water supply was with fluoride. When I stopped drinking that water they stopped forever! Including enormous feeling of stress!
@@suesmithers7489 Ok. I was just wondering because I have had the same problem with my heart after drinking water! (Not only the water triggered my heart palpitations, but often the water was the starter of the irregular heartbeats!) But our body is in need for water so that’s why I was wondering if you just stopped to drink water and what you now was drinking instead 😁👍 So thank you for your answer 🙏🌹 But isn’t the bottle water the same as the tap water?
@@user-yu3ci4sl8v No, not at all! It’s free of fluoride! Fluoride is a highly toxic industrial waste product that they ADD to the water! Get a good water filter that takes out the fluoride. Drink lots of water always! Never tap water . If in doubt spring water is good.
Just had this feeling, I believe it was the coffee i had, scared the 💩 out of me. I was just diagnosed with stage 2 hypertension.😭 Turned 40 and my health started declining ever since 😢
My grandad had a stroke at 42 after the horror of being in war.He lived to 94 and took Epsom salts every day.Just half a teaspoon, he laso walked a lot but could not speak much.
Been dealing with palpitations since I was 28. I’m 30 now. I had dizziness, short of breath , fainting , fatigue , palpitations & chest pain & my back as well. I was really really stressed out & thought I was gonna die.. i started taking magnesium & other vitamins you have talked bout in your vids & I’ve gotten a little better. I recently did. 4 screening test. Abdominal Aortic aneurysm, carotid artery disease, peripheral arterial disease & my last one atrial fibrillation. The rest came out normal but atrial fibrillation came out I had bradycardia. I look it up & find out Is a slower than normal heart rate. . At the moment they were doing the screening my heart was 45 beats/min. And I used excessively workout 2-4 hours a day 7 days a week. For bout 3 years. Until I was getting all those symptoms at the gym & I felt I wasn’t getting enough oxygen. My uncle who’s a doctor where I’m from. Told me it could be that. Now I only go for bout an hour & I still feel kind the same & now I know now is do to my low heart rate. Do you have any advice or can you do a vid bout it. I’d really appreciate it.
I am turning 30 this July and have had the same symptoms since I was 27. Salt!!!!! Not only potassium and magnesium (3 type ) But salt!!!!! It has fixed most of my issues I buy Celtic sea salt I take a teaspoon in the am. I put it on my foods during the day. And a teaspoon before bed. I thought I was going to die Turns out my slow heart rate and low blood pressure just meant I was someone who actually needed more salt. Some people are like that! Took me 2 years to learn it! Finally went to holistic doctor and she said some bodies just don’t absorb it very well- especially keeping up with it with working out and drinking a ton of water. She said salt everything
@@Mirrormouth12 thanks I’ll give it a try. I’m lacking at the gym just cause how I’m feeling & the symptoms I get. Ive always been active & I’m a very athletic person. This is kinda pushing me back a little. But I got the gold sea salt from dr Berg site. Would that work ?
I had heart palpitations for years, probably 15 years. But when I saw your video on the importance of vitamin D, I got my vitamin D tested. It was at a level 4, which is extremely low. Once I started taking your vitamin D supplements, my levels increased. My level now is a 64 and I also don’t have palpitations anymore. I think a low vitamin D level may have a link to heart palpitations also.
Yes they do.. def do.. Iam a thyroid patient so my levels of vit d during the winter go low and I get all these weird skipped beats.. in the summer they are non existent.. so yes I believe vitd has a lot to do with them
1-2 tablespoons of Black strap molasses has the magnesium and potassium in a glass of warm water daily. This also help losing weight. I know people that have lost 10 lbs in one week just by doing that . Thank you Dr Berg for your informative videos. I appreciate how you always try to go to the root of the problem instead of meds.
I was thinking the same EXACT thing. How is it possible to lose weight ingesting black strap molasses which is sugar albeit a healthier form of sugar.🤷🏻♀️
Molasses turns your hair from gray ti black due to the copoer content of u want to keep grets away. Just be careful because molasses has lead in it too
I have suffered with palpitations since 2018, tried almost everything and only thing to help manage it is almost zero caffeine. But I still feel them everyday. ❤
Magnesium saved my daily life as I prayed for.I was on an event monitor for a whole month. The last week I started taking Magnesium within 3 days, they were gone. They had gotten so bad that I developed a cardiac cough when they were intense. However once the heart palpitations went away, so did the cough.Also, I got my results back, and no problem with my heat was found...PBTA!!!

After I eat just about anything I can get them. Not always, but after I eat is they are more common. So Dr. Berg is right about being related to digestion 4 and 5.
Top causes of heart palpitations: • Stress • Caffeine • Wine • Gluten • Bile sludge • Food allergies • Certain medications • Hyperthyroidism • EMF • Over-exercising/poor sleep • Magnesium deficiency The top remedy for heart palpitations: • Magnesium (from food sources like 4 to 5 cups of greens or 7 to10 cups of salad per day) (or magnesium glycinate as supplement) Thank you Dr Berg!
I’ve been taking magnesium daily since 2009 to prevent any deficiency related heart issues. It helps with muscle cramps too, as in I never get them anymore.
Yep. Magnesium really does work for me. When my heart feels like it is beating wildly, I take Magnesium and wash it down with mineral water. Sometimes I also add Potassium. Its crazy how fast this acts. I notice it mostly when I am trying to fall asleep - the phenomenon will keep me from sleeping until I take the supplements. Our food is so depleted nutritionally I don't know really how we are surviving.
@@codiannsmith About 40% of it decreased by using his data on healthy keto and intermittent fasting which decreased my hunger/ amounts of meals and increased my electrolytes by using avocados/ leafy greens. Another huge percentage by using his electrolytes. Another percentage went out by using his data on stress / taking responsibility for things that stress me out.
I have these when I have panic attacks, which for awhile, was happening almost daily. I increased my water intake and I limit myself to one cup of coffee per day. It's lessened. But I still get stressed just to PTSD and who I am as a person. My boyfriend and I are stitching back to keto-vore diet. I've always felt way better on a keto/carnivore diet.
Iron deficiencies can also cause heart palpitations. That was one of my first symptoms. Given 1/4 women are walking around iron deficient it's too bad you didn't include this.
Thank you Dr. Berg. You are helping me learn even more about some of my symptoms from Lyme disease. It’s hard to remember all the ways to continue to work on my health. This is my life now, but my symptoms are rare now thanks to my Lyme literate doctor and other doctors like you. God Bless. 🙏
@@campbellpaul Your body naturally expels the harmful Oxalate Crystals when you go on the "Carnivore Diet." I've been on it for almost a full year and had MANY HEALINGS!!! See Dr. Ken Berry's vids on here, he is a Carnivore expert.
Magnesium has absolutely made a world of difference for my palpitations, I was so scared all the time they would have my anxiety through the roof, all sorts of strange and scary feeling all over my body when I would hyperfocus on them.
This cause wasn't mentioned in the video, so perhaps it's not one of the most common, but I've struggled with iron deficiency anemia off and on the last few years, and I get palpitations when the anemia is back. I'm also in my early 50s, and thought perimenopause might be the cause, but I only seem to get the palpitations and racing pulse when the hemoglobin has dropped down to anemic range.
It is reassuring that palpitations are more likely not a heart problem, especially when considering the many different things that can cause them. I've discovered that different things can trigger them in me with different quick remedies. On one occasion they would just not stop for maybe half an hour or so. Something told me to drink a glass of cold water. Gone in an instant. At the time I was working outside and it may have been a warm day. Sometimes I get them when going to bed and lying on my side, somewhat squashing my rib cage, and probably having eaten something too late. I re-position to take the pressure off my chest, and poof, gone.
Palpitations can be common during perimenopause. They started for me at the age of 42. Doctor wanted to put me on estrogen for life. I saw a cardiologist who determined they were caused by stress, caffeine, and hormones. My only caffeine source was chocolate since I don’t drink caffeinated drinks. I abstained from chocolate for eleven years, and then gradually reintroduced it. Thankfully, I can eat it now. I discovered magnesium supplementation on my own, and it saved me.
YESSSSS regarding perimenopause I’m in perimenopause and it’s complete MISERY what all comes with it! hormones are a big problem for us women what we go through!
Thanks for this! I only drink one cup of Coffee, in morning, also. My problem is - I can't possibly eat 7-10 cups of Salad daily. I just don't eat that much food! i do take Magnesium and Potassium supplements.
I’m telling you guys, it’s simple: Eliminate caffeine, eliminate sugar, and make sure you get enough magnesium and potassium. I also take l-Argenine, taurine, and l-theanine. Fixed.
i've been taking l-theanine and magnesium along with b comples, i had found some relief for about 2 weeks with my heart rate and anxiety, but two days ago it just stopped working and now im back to having a really high HR :(
I had heart palpitations for a while, did many tests, ultrasound, ECG, even a 24 hr heart monitor, nothing but "a harmless extra beat". All I did was stop the multivitamin I was taking and they went away. Sometimes too much of a vitamin can cause it.
Hello doctor, I want to let you know about a situation where I had a digestive issue, causing me to have anxiety, rapid heart, extreme fatigue and a week of green poop. I initially, did what you suggested (which is a great remedy) and upped my B1 vitamin. I also took betaine for each meal. Unfortunately, this did not work at removing my green poop. But one thing I do as a habit when I feel sick or off, I will sit down and write down what I did in the last 24-48 hours. Where did I go? What activities did I do? And I’m looking for anything out of the ordinary that could have caused my illness. And this time “one thing” stuck out. I went to the chiropractor. And while there, I was placed on a table with a vertebrae decompression device. This device wraps around your head and gently stretches the neck. It was right after this visit, that my poop turned green and all the other issues showed up. After a week the green poop went away. Then I did some decompression again. And sure enough, my green poop came back. So searched green poop and spine decompression. And there it was! I was getting green poop from aggravating my Vagus nerve. I have stopped doing the decompressions. And now focusing on being kind to my Vagus nerve, with help from your videos. And I’m back to good. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Dear Dr Berg. I take time to give you my feed back. I took your recipe: chopped organic garlic, in water, with a drop of organic olive oil. Maceration 15 minutes. After one week : no more palpitations 😀 Incredible ! I hope it will help somebody there. Thanks Doctor.
I was having palpitations about 15 years ago. I finally linked them to monosodium glutamate in foods .Magnesium blocks it from crossing the brain barrier. So many of the processed food manufacturers have other names on their labels for monosodium glutamate and it’s confusing. I stopped eating any foods that might trigger palpitations including a well-known brand of yogurt.
It's easy to get burned out if you have coffee first thing in the morning because you already have hormones in your blood, such as epinephrin and cortisol. It's best to wait until mid-morning, when that wears off and you may naturally feel the effect of those hormones reducing. I get up around 5 AM and typically don't have my first cup of coffee until around 9:00 or 10:00. I typically have two or three cups a day, and I'm not very caffeine sensitive. I do drink a lot of tea, but not before exercise.
Found this video while on a quest to get down to the bottom of my PVC's ! I'm 49, likely peri-menopausal but didn't want to blame my sudden onset of PVC's (more than 10 a minute for the last month!) on hormones alone. Unlike most of America, I exercise frequently, eat pretty healthy, maintain a good weight, do not smoke, but I do have a high stress shift work type job (work on a medevac helicopter) that I've always thought was the cause of some insomnia issues. I have no health issues, thyroid is normal, take no medications. I always work to stay hydrated but have never taken supplements. I know that PVC's are usually nothing to worry about but TODAY, I had enough. While I was driving, i had so many PVC's i was pre-syncopal and decided to come home to make an appointment with my primary MD. I won't be able to get in for weeks. So I saw this video and tried an electrolyte supplement from Dr. Berg that my boyfriend had purchased recently (120 mg per serving). I double dosed it--- within 20 minutes I am down to just 1-2 every minute and felt better. The ones I do feel are less intense. Of course, with this little experiment, I can not make any definitive conclusion just yet, but I will take this once a day over the course of the month and evaluate from there. ANYWAY, thank you for this! It is worth a try at least for all of you sufferers out there.
Am 62, and I have been having heart palpitations for over two years now, the only way I stop them is to lower my head down to my knees and then they slowly go away. I take no drugs. Stress is probably number one for me.
Ohhh that's not good, man. Seriously, take the magnesium, it's good for stress too. Watch more Dr Berg videos about how to address your stress. If things get better lowering your head, you might have a circulatory problem, perhaps a blockage. Get checked!
Per an earlier video from Dr Berg about magnesium and potassium for palpitations, I began to eat mixed nuts and sunflower seeds just like one would take a prescription. After years of palpitations, they almost entirely quit within a few days.
Much needed video What he is saying is absolutely right, because even i went through this terrible condition n later i was diagnosed with gall bladder stone The moment my gall bladder got removed ,i had no more palpitations But i swear palpitations sucks Thank you soooooo much doctor
Dr Berg please address the hiatal hernia aspect of this. Food sensitivities can affect the hernia causing the stomach to creep up higher and cause the diagram to touch the bottom of the heart causing palpitations.
I had heart palpitations. Felt like a flip flop in my chest. Went to a doctor, no heart issues found. Went to a health food store, the lady recommended magnesium - they were completely gone the next day 😮 This man speaks truth. ❤ Thank you
It sounds like what you're describing is a cardiac cough reflex or sternutatory syncope. If you felt an urge to cough after, then I believe this might be the case. Palpitations are more often a pounding sensation with every beat, but it is also an umbrella term to cover heart beat related issues such as a feeling of skipped beats. I am not recommending anything here, just sharing what I know, I am glad Magnesium worked for you :)
Thank you Dr.Berg
Same. I had bad palpitations for about a month, doctor sent me to heart specialist, who couldn't find anything wrong, and offered no possible reasons why it was happening. It just happens, apparently. 🙈 He never mentioned Magnesium or any other minerals or vitamins. Went home, did research, and started taking Magnesium. Palpitations GONE. So much for the 'experts' 🤯
What type of magnesiun is best to stop heart palpitations?
@@star.traffick8390 I take mag. threonate. Very relaxing. It can help you to drift off to sleep but that's fine by me!
I was registering 30 thousand palpitations a day in 2017. I was 25. I wore a heart monitor for two weeks. Took an echo, no diformities found. Though, my heart is enlarged due to crazy drug use in my early twenties. I thought I was gonna die. I thought I had heart disease of some kind for sure. I was stressed to the max. I was losing my house, my girlfriend and my job fired me and I was flat broke. I went homeless for a couple months after that but I'm 31 now and the palps are gone for the most part. I get them here and there but not for a prolonged period of time. I got a therapist, finished my degree and got on some vitamins and started eating more salads and exercising a little more. The biggest thing that helps when you have them is to make yourself believe that you will get through this and that you're not gonna die. If you start believing this is the beginning of the end, then it might be. Choose to believe you will get better no matter how bad it gets!
Wow 30 thousand a day!? How did you function?
Thank you so much for this comment!
It made it a bit less worrying thanks to you! Best of luck in your future endeavours!
I'm gettin around 20 to 30 to every minute absolutely scaring me to death
@@ryancooper4618you're still here. Close your eyes, take a deep breath and try not to focus on the palpitations. The more you focus, the worse it gets. Your heart is strong. It's the strongest muscle in your body. It is built to withstand even the heaviest amounts of stress. I got through it & so will you. Just find a way to remain calm & trust that the help you receive will heal you. Good luck & God bless.
@ryancooper4618 I replied right when you said this but it looks like it didn't go through. Sorry about that. Take a deep breath in and out and try not to focus on the palpitations. Just remember that your heart is the strongest muscle in your body & it is meant to withstand even the heaviest amounts of stress. Trust that the help you receive will heal you. I know its scary to be alone when you have heart problems & you don't wanna be a burden on people but you need support. Reach out to whoever you think can calm your nervous system and make you feel better. Good luck & God bless. I'm assuming you're still with us & that's a sign you will get through this. If I can, you can.
I had palpitations bad for almost 20 years in the military. Near the end, I found Doc Berg and magnesium, and fixed it. Thanks, Doc Berg!
That's great. Thanks for sharing your experience. Stay safe and healthy!
What magnesium
I've been taking bioavailable 3 forms of magnesium and it doesn't help
@@Drberg Can you tell me what I need to do if I have Hyperthyroidism and experiencing palpitations? I don't have it treated with any medications and I don't have health insurance. Not sure what to do because I'm pretty solid with everything else Dr. Berg listed.
There's so many different magnesium to choose from. Which one did you use? plz reply.
Please give this man a Nobel prize! 🏆
I appreciate your support!
Asap 😊
I gave it to him
Fr
Sir I appreciate your work.Keep it up.❤
I told my doc about the palpitations he said " not serious just extra heart beat" offered no solution! End of consultation! Thanks so much Dr Berg ! You are one who really cares! ❤
True. Same in New Zealand. Some GP's are ...well..they don' t really care.
I’ve gotten the “you aren’t dying. Come back when you’re dying and we’ll talk” attitude too.
True, doctors do absolutely nothing, I've mentioned it many times to different doctors, nothing
It’s like their family made them become doctors and this is what we get
Omg yes! I had palpitations for more than an hour. The ECG on my Apple watch even notified me that I might have AFib. I was so worried and scared & went straight to the emergency. They checked my blood pressure, ECG & took a blood test and the results came out fine.
I explained to them that I'm a heavy smoker, wondering maybe if that was the reason why I got the palpitations & the doctor didn't even bother to give a comment about that. He was just like "You're fine. The blood test results are all fine. Don't worry. There's no sign of a heart attack"
I had heart palpitations for years. Docs could never find anything wrong. Had to figure it out on my own.
Everytime I ate bread I had heart palpitations. I was young (in my 20s) and thought it was just anxiety. I did have severe anxiety which was a nightmare in itself. Docs never diagnosed me with anxiety so I never took meds for it. Thank God!
Started listening to my body in my 40s. Went to school for holistic nutrition and now at 60 I believe I'm healthier than ever. I thank God everyday 🙏
And Dr. Berg is a gem❤
im 25 and i get heart palpitations when i eat bread too! or overall if i have carbs but mostly ive realized it happens when i eat bread in specific. i also thought it was just anxiety as well which i may have that but im not sure, what have you concluded with your study in holistic nutrition? im currently on a layed back carnivore diet and its helped a bunch
When I eat bread I get toe cramp, left foot first.
@@aromaCS I'm on a layed back carnivore also. It has helped with everything. Hormone imbalance etc. My schooling taught me about getting to the root cause of illness or dis-ease. It's all about food and how we are all different. One size does not fit all so to speak. I went to school because docs could not help me. They don't know nutrition.
You are probably sensitive or allergic to wheat. Carnivore does wonders for your gut.
@@sandybrown3879 that's odd but not surprising
Amen !!! So happy for you .
+ overhydration (drinking too much water) can cause palpitations as well because it drains out most of electrolytes from body through urination, which are essential for regular heartbeat.
YESSSSSSS I have afib and I would end up in the hospital 🏥 MY potassium WAS always low BUT in normal rage BUT when MY potassium goes under 4.0 it triggers MY heart ♥️ into palpitations or episode OR NIGHTMARE afib! I even take 3 potassium pills 💊 a day because I ONLY drink water 💦 it WAS flushing out all MY electrolytes 👈🏻 I need to try magnesium again I’m just SO SCARED 😱 of pills 💊 I have ptsd over pills 💊 because that’s what caused ME to get afib condition 😭
Diuretics, such as Furosemide, trade name Lasix and others flush out fluids from the body along with vital nutrients and electrolytes which, as stated, are necessary for maintaining heart rhythm. Pterostilbene, found in berries and grapes and also as a supplement, will flush out water but not the nutrients and electrolytes. Aquaretics, I found about 2 1/2 years ago is suppose to flush water only but I prefer the natural approach.
@@CYndibabI look up “Ancient Minerals Magnesium Spray” you just spray it on to your skin, I do about 15-20 sprays a day and it soaks in BETTER transdermally (through your skin) than by supplements and ZERO worry about upset stomach too! It’s been a life saver for me. 👍🏼
@@CYndibabI oh my gosh I'm the same way, I'm terrified of taking any kind of pill or supplements, nice to know there's someone else like me..
@@CYndibabI The RDA for Potassium is between 3500 mg and 4700 mg .....and the Potassium in OTC supplements is ONLY 99 mg ea as required by law .... AND LOW Potassium can definitely be associated with heart palpations - as that happened to me - as can low Magnesium.
Taking Magnesium supplements resolved a lot of problems - including palpitations AND muscle soreness and muscle cramps - and it is a very commonly used supplement that can even make one feel calmer. Do some research on it as there are different types.
I started taking "Magnesium Malate" about 2 years ago when I suddenly developed severe muscle cramps that would not stop with the other type of Magnesium I took. I looked up which Magnesium is best suited for Muscle cramps - and ordered *Magnesium Malate* - and FINALLY after 10 days of ongoing debilitating muscle cramps - the next day, after taking it, 90% of my problems were resolved with "Malate" that cheaper versions of magnesium could not " fix " ... and a few days later, these severe muscle cramps - WERE GONE.
I also was having palpitations so bad at night that it would wake me up. Ended up in the emergency room twice. I researched and saw where you recommended magnesium glycinate. Started eating properly and started the magnesium and now my heart is beating normal again and I am losing weight. I feel so much better. Thank you
Please what brand and how many dosage were you taken?? Thank you
My palpitations were caused by a potassium deficiency. Now I eat at least two servings of vegetables/fruits with each meal. Great video.
My potassium is 3.7 and i feel weakness after having meal and after sleeping in afternoon I get balance issues.. Also fatigue is there
you can't possibly eat enough in your diet to get the potassium you need. Supplement.
Had palpitations so bad I wore a heart monitor for 24 hours only for the cardiologist to say there’s nothing wrong with my heart. Started taking magnesium a few months ago and the palpitations are gone and sleep has improved so much.
That is EXACTLY what happened to me sister! I take magnesium & potassium & it fixed me immediately.
@@KaTe-bb2er Wow really?
So I haven’t tried potassium yet but thanks for mentioning that. Might have to give that a try too.
@@zassy4778can you both tell me in which form you guys took magnesium and potassium?
Also kindly mention the dosage/quantity per day

I was a mess after the virus. I didnt get the virus. Never would get the v. But the spike protein from both the v and the virus. Scary scary.
What kind of vaccine?
@@danskdna8550 you’re lucky to not have had much worse than palpitations
If you had a bad response from the vaccine your system had an issue beforehand and the vaccine brought it to the forefront.
You have people who wolf down mcdonalds for lunch and dinner DAILY saying the vaccine made them sick. 😂😂😂😂
@@ketzergaw2593 your kidding right?
Ive had palpitations since i was younger. I believe the main reason for them is stress/anxiety. You may not even know that you are anxious until you try some kind of meditation/ relaxation techniques. Then you realise youve been stressed for so long without realising. Drink plenty sleep plenty meditate and supplement according. Works for me 😁
I believe this is my problem
Do you get a skipping heartbeat or just racing? Or both?
Months back I started a triple blend of magnesium malate, glycerinate, and citrate and it has made a world of difference with my palpitations. About 95% better!!!
the specific brand?
I was about to take that one. I don't have palpitations anymore. I took magnesium potassium aspartame. Keeps my BP in check.

@@brianb7844 Awesome 3 in 1, Glad I asked!
One thing not mentioned here is also Menopause. I started having them during peri menopause.
Same here
Yes! Exactly right. I did too.
Does it disappear after menopause??
@@chinnukumar3103 I still have them off and on after menopause. I think it is due to all my hormonal changes. Each person is different though.
@@chinnukumar3103 no, but I went on hormone replacement therapy so that got rid of it pretty much. A lot of people are afraid of HRT but really if you think about it if you are low in thyroid hormone we take it or if we don’t have insulin then we take it. Why wouldn’t we do the same with our other hormones? Also, new guidelines that came out this year say it’s protective against all sort of things.
I had palpitations on and off for ten years. My wife was recording what she ate in My Fitness Pal, so I started to also. After three months I discovered that it was collecting data for sodium intake. Mine was very low, probably because we cook all of our meals from scratch. I began to salt my meals immediately and my palpitations went away within two days… forever.
3 Years ago my cardiologist said I had an irregular heartbeat. But, the problem would go away in the summer. He didn't believe it. Finally and ER doctor told me it was the vagus nerve. Stimulating the sternum with massage relieved the sensation. However, the list that Dr. Berg gave was almost everything I was doing wrong. Following Keto has alleviated the palpitation "almost" entirely. I went back for an annual 2 days ago and the cardiologist just shook his head an smiled. He couldn't believe how my health improved. Thank you Dr. Berg!
What is your typical diet for a day?
question please❓when YOU are food did it trigger your heart ♥️ in palpitations👈🏻❓
If your "back is out of Whack" it can throw your heart into "flip flops".. been there too many times...
After 30 months on keto + IF, I had my 1st afib episode 2 weeks ago. I see a cardiologist in a couple of days to discuss what happened and what treatment will be needed. I've had palpitations for almost 15 years and actually took atenolol the last dozen years for it. For now they have me on eliquis and cardizem.

Mine was caused by severe stress and anxiety and I did not know it. I thought it was some bad health condition and made it worse by not listening to my doctor because I was convinced something was wrong when he told me there was nothing wrong with me. This also lead to shortness of breath. I learned it was all in my head! You brain is a powerful thing if you tell your self something is wrong with you your brain will make it so.

I had horrible heart palpitations for a couple of years. After spending tens of thousands of dollars on "specialists" I went to a natropath. He figured out that I had so much scar tissue around an old back injury that it was strangling my nerves and effecting the vagus nerve. After many months of him breaking up that scar tissue they went away. It felt like a miracle. Menopause can cause heart palps too.
how do they do it? I may have similar issue. Did you need a CT scan or ultrasound to see the problem?
@@trollmcclure1884 No scan showed any problem. My natropath could feel how much scar tissue I had. Good luck.

I had heart palpitations almost every day for 2 and a half years following an emotional burn out. I was juggling a demanding full time job as well as being the main carer for my dad. I ended up with bad anxiety and that triggered the palpitations. I went from being healthy with no palpitations, to extreme anxiety, over sensitivity and strange electrical pulses down my spine. It was the worst time of my life and at one stage I thought it would never end. I also had extreme dread that something bad was always going to happen. I was also afraid to go out in the dark.
Thankfully I'm now on the road to recovery with palpitations only occasionally. The sensitivity has now gone and I am no longer afraid to go out at night. Incidentally I take magnesium daily.
What type brand dosage
@@bunnybubs757 I'm in the UK so I use Vitabiotics Ultra Magnesium. I take 2 tablets daily (375mg).
@@sandymcconnell1969 thank you
I went thru this as well, glad your ok!
@@bunnybubs757try taking about 250-500 mgs of glycinate. If you get too much it will cause mild diarhea , then just lower the dose. I found this info in one of dr berg’s video’s about magnesium. I’d go watch it , lot’s of great info!
Very glad emf’s were included, and his own experience with home wiring. The material the headboard is made from also matters especially if metal, particle board. Solid painted wood is better. Iron worse. ( in wrought iron) Glad he covered so much on this. Great information!
Stopped Caffeine and started drinking coconut water and taking magnesium everyday. Zero heart palpitations 😊
I had palpitations when I was in my early 50´s and I went for a stress test and found out I had left bundle branch blockage and was put on a beta blocker. I took it for a quite a few years never seeing a doctor or a cardiologist in all that time. Last summer I did a bit of research and found out that heart palpitations are quite common in menopause so I thought I would cut my pills in half and see what happens. Nothing changed so after 6 months I completely quit taking them and 5 months in I’m still fine. I’m sure I still have LBBB but symptom free as is the case in a few of my siblings. The changes I made were adding magnesium bisglycinate and upping my vitamin d3 to 5-10,000 mg per day along with K2 and daily exercise as well. I’m 64 now and feeling great ! Do your own research as well as consulting with your doctor , you know your body best !
I have that same thing. They never gave me anything for it. I was smoking, drinking beer and eating crap foods. It never bothered me, but I stopped smoking January 2022, and am taking better care of my health. All of a sudden my glucose number is high and my triglycerides are high. 😠
❤absolutely
Yes, I'm 41 and I started having palpitations the exact day of my birthday funny enough. After reading a bunch and several doctor visits, I think I'm beginning menopause, premenopause. They seem to only happen when I'm having my period, so definitely think there's a connection
@@cho7707 Diet. Diet. Diet. You are eating foods as if you are not diabetic. You probably are: Ask your Dr for a lab order for OGTT with insulin.
@@jna9888 I am doing low carb. My glucose was 119 and triglycerides were 172. I still like a few cold ones now & again. That's what's causing it. I stop and then there's a festival so I get social with a few brews. It's not the food. I eat good AND exercise. It's my beer. 😭
It's important to stay hydrated. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables to get potassium and magnesium is spot on. Had to go to the ER once due to palpitations and blood work showed it was low potassium. Since then per doctor recommendation I eat a banana in the morning and supplement low dose magnesium and potassium at night.
Fruits and some vegetables have fructose and carbs, contributing to diabetes and insulin resistance. It's always something, ain't it. 😵💫
I feel thirsty sometimes but my blood work shows up normal.
What if you only want to eat pizza and drink alcohol?
What kind of magnesium?
@@minuette1752then you pay for it down the road
Supplementing magnesium made my chronic headaches go away. Before that, I would wake up in the middle of the night with "the worst headache you've ever had" from degenerative disc disease. I still had chronic pain, but stopped getting those headaches. I also had hypertension.
Keto and fasting reduced that chronic pain and the hypertension, but I started keto for onset of type two diabetes a few years after serendipitously discovering magnesium.
Which type of magnesium do you take
@@chillnspace777 When I started, it was magnesium oxide from Costco, and it actually worked. It's supposed to be the crappiest from, so I switched to magnesium malate. Then I learned about various other forms of magnesium and added magnesium threonate, because I have degenerative disc disease and wanted any cognitive benefits too.
Then I found what I really wanted was a magnesium complex, so I get a complex with magnesium malate, glycinate, orotate and taurate, which I take with meals, in addition to the magnesium threonate I still take in the morning and the evening. If I need to relax and/or fight inflammation in particular, I'll take magnesium glycinate standalone.
When fasting, I don't take the complex and instead I take an electrolyte supplement from Redmond Life.
I like to share how I finally got rid of my PVC's. More than 3 years I struggled with irregular heartbeats. I tried everything besides living an active and healthy life. My heart was examined by a cardiologist and found nothing abnormal but 24 hour holter test showed 10% of my heartbeats where irregular. That's a lot! After all this years I finally accepted them and learned to live with them although they are always in your chest and therefore in the back of your mind. Then out of nowhere I decided to stop taking my Centrum multivitamin that I was taking for all those years. Guess what, my heart completely came to rest, not all the way I mean but all the extra pulses originating in the ventricles stopped. I hope you can benefit from my experience. I wish you well and a happy healthy life.
I went keto and carnivore, developed tinnitus and vertigo and they found extra heartbeat. So now i had heart palpitations and also diagnosed SVT. I also have gallbladder problem that might be causing me to have heart palpitate and also going through perimenopause. I have them all. So now, i made sure i have enough minerals and electrolytes and it helps reduce palpitations. I just have to take care of my gallbladder hopefully it will go away but with perimenopause it might not. Hang in there everyone. Keep eating healthy, drink water and lemon water, exercise and have faith in the Lord Jesus that He will heal you.
I have reduced my caffeine levels down to about 100-150mg per day and have stopped drinking anything with caffeine after noon / lunch. I have started sleeping better, longer, falling asleep easier, and have way less palpitations. I still get them once in a blue moon, but my stress levels are rather high due to my wife's health and other factors. I hope after her upcoming major surgery in June will help reduce my stress.
I had palpitations and a slight arrythmia a few years ago. Cardiologist told me to take magnesium, which I did, one capsule daily. No more palpitations.
I have reduced my Coffee consumption to 1 a day...Beer is out...Wine once A WEEK...Plus I've been taking Smoothies...And reduced my Workload to 32 hrs a week..INSTEAD of 40 hrs..
I was diagnosed with SVT = SupraVentricularTacycardia, back in 2017 when we were moving! The drugs the docs wanted to give me were VERY toxic and I said no. Fortunately I found a gal who cured herself naturally, so I gave up the coffee, chocolate, basically all sweets and here I am today with absolutely NO palpitations at all! Thanks for this important video Dr. Berg ~ I love you!
That's awesome!
@@Drberg I also started taking liquid magnesium, but for leg cramps actually, and your electrolyte powder is also a big plus for me, and I thank you!
I had heart ablation for svt. It didn't work the first time so I had it redone. They were very surprised to find an unusual extra pathway and it took a much larger dose than normal to speed my heart up to 300 bpm to highlight this pathway. That was 9 years ago and thankfully it worked.
A very interesting procedure (never realised how cold the operating room would be and was better prepared wearing fluffy socks and gloves the second time)
You forgot one more! Number 11 - hormone fluctuations in perimenopause and menopause.
I literally just came here to say this same thing! But again, women's health is often not taken into consideration. I was going into SVT (tachycardia) thanks to perimeno/menopause. Once I went on HRT, the tachycardia stopped!!!!! Doctors, please start considering womens health!
Hrt have side effects,they say.Are you still taking it?please reply.I have same problem with hot flashes and insomnia.
Yes, I am going through this, and it is awful
@@shajishakeeb2036 HRT is very safe! The only side effects are good ones! No more hot flashes etc :)
Great info to know about magnesium and potassium. Thanks, Doc!

I had increasingly disturbing palpitations over the years, I always thought it was hereditary because both my grandmother and mother had the same. Turns out, when I quit eating wheat the palpitations disappeared and have never returned. Wheat is truly poison.
I've had these in the past. I still get them sporadically. Not as much or currently though but this knowledge is still priceless.
I limit caffeine, salt and alcohol - that has helped limit my palpitations greatly!
Dehydration with loss of electrolytes causes palpitations, too! It happens whenever I go on keto!
Yes true
Thank-you for including EMF!! Most of these causes are not mentioned by main stream medical people. Great video.
I have SVT, and GERD. Super annoying, But both are treated, and I STILL get random palpitations that last anywhere from around 2 second to 5 seconds. Hours apart to months apart. This info was super helpful! 🙌
Hey I have SVT also, have had it my entire life. I got good at doing the valsalma maneuver and can usually stop it within minutes but I’ve had it last 12 hours at 160bpm when I was a kid and too scared to wake my parents up. Anyways I get palpitations regularly and noticed they subside when I get some good burps out. Do you have any info on this or advice on SVTs?
@@creektopfarms5217 low sugar diet, don't go too crazy on excercise but definitely do excercise, avoid stimulants at all costs! (Example, Caffeine). I also take a daily vitamin as well as Omega-3 and magnesium supplements. Hope that helps!
I was unknowingly taking excessive D3 which depleted magnesium. Another issue was not drinking milk which does help heart rhythm. My doctors did not suggest Mg testing; so guess I will be assertive and request the test. Most docs don’t seem to know the source of med diagnoses can be vitamins and minerals unless they take initiative to learn like Dr Berg. Great job doc.
My Gerd will have me thinking I’m going to have a heart attack. If I sit wrong I’ll feel crazy pressure
IM SO GLAD I CAME ACROSS THIS VIDEO BECAUSE ALL THE SYMPTOMS OF GASTROCARDIAC SYNDROME IS WHAT I'VE BEEN HAVING EXCEPT FOR CHEST PAIN, WOW
Did magnesium help? I'm suffering the same
I had heart palpitations all my life until age 48 when I learned how toxic our water supply was with fluoride. When I stopped drinking that water they stopped forever! Including enormous feeling of stress!
Sue Smithers: So you mean to say you don’t drink water at all?
@@user-yu3ci4sl8v No, Ofcause not! I drink lots of water!
Pure filtered water free of fluoride!
Bottled spring water too.
@@suesmithers7489 Ok. I was just wondering because I have had the same problem with my heart after drinking water! (Not only the water triggered my heart palpitations, but often the water was the starter of the irregular heartbeats!) But our body is in need for water so that’s why I was wondering if you just stopped to drink water and what you now was drinking instead 😁👍 So thank you for your answer 🙏🌹 But isn’t the bottle water the same as the tap water?
@@user-yu3ci4sl8v No, not at all!
It’s free of fluoride!
Fluoride is a highly toxic industrial waste product that they ADD to the water!
Get a good water filter that takes out the fluoride.
Drink lots of water always! Never tap water . If in doubt spring water is good.
@Helene Almost 50 Hahaha - Yes, it sure does 😂😂😂😂👍 Thank you for your answer 🙏❤️🥰
Just had this feeling, I believe it was the coffee i had, scared the 💩 out of me. I was just diagnosed with stage 2 hypertension.😭 Turned 40 and my health started declining ever since 😢

My grandad had a stroke at 42 after the horror of being in war.He lived to 94 and took Epsom salts every day.Just half a teaspoon, he laso walked a lot but could not speak much.

How did he use??
Been dealing with palpitations since I was 28. I’m 30 now. I had dizziness, short of breath , fainting , fatigue , palpitations & chest pain & my back as well. I was really really stressed out & thought I was gonna die.. i started taking magnesium & other vitamins you have talked bout in your vids & I’ve gotten a little better. I recently did. 4 screening test. Abdominal Aortic aneurysm, carotid artery disease, peripheral arterial disease & my last one atrial fibrillation. The rest came out normal but atrial fibrillation came out I had bradycardia. I look it up & find out Is a slower than normal heart rate. . At the moment they were doing the screening my heart was 45 beats/min. And I used excessively workout 2-4 hours a day 7 days a week. For bout 3 years. Until I was getting all those symptoms at the gym & I felt I wasn’t getting enough oxygen. My uncle who’s a doctor where I’m from. Told me it could be that. Now I only go for bout an hour & I still feel kind the same & now I know now is do to my low heart rate. Do you have any advice or can you do a vid bout it. I’d really appreciate it.
I am turning 30 this July and have had the same symptoms since I was 27.
Salt!!!!!
Not only potassium and magnesium (3 type )
But salt!!!!!
It has fixed most of my issues
I buy Celtic sea salt
I take a teaspoon in the am.
I put it on my foods during the day.
And a teaspoon before bed.
I thought I was going to die
Turns out my slow heart rate and low blood pressure just meant I was someone who actually needed more salt.
Some people are like that!
Took me 2 years to learn it!
Finally went to holistic doctor and she said some bodies just don’t absorb it very well- especially keeping up with it with working out and drinking a ton of water.
She said salt everything
@@Mirrormouth12 thanks I’ll give it a try. I’m lacking at the gym just cause how I’m feeling & the symptoms I get. Ive always been active & I’m a very athletic person. This is kinda pushing me back a little. But I got the gold sea salt from dr Berg site. Would that work ?
There is obviously a spike in heart health awareness in the past 2 years or so, its always a good idea to seek perspective and keep an open mind.
I had heart palpitations for years, probably 15 years. But when I saw your video on the importance of vitamin D, I got my vitamin D tested. It was at a level 4, which is extremely low. Once I started taking your vitamin D supplements, my levels increased. My level now is a 64 and I also don’t have palpitations anymore. I think a low vitamin D level may have a link to heart palpitations also.
Yes they do.. def do.. Iam a thyroid patient so my levels of vit d during the winter go low and I get all these weird skipped beats.. in the summer they are non existent.. so yes I believe vitd has a lot to do with them
1-2 tablespoons of Black strap molasses has the magnesium and potassium in a glass of warm water daily. This also help losing weight. I know people that have lost 10 lbs in one week just by doing that . Thank you Dr Berg for your informative videos. I appreciate how you always try to go to the root of the problem instead of meds.
Glad to know about the blackstrap molasses!
I believe in the nutritional value but I can’t see how they could lose weight when molasses is sugar.
I was thinking the same EXACT thing. How is it possible to lose weight ingesting black strap molasses which is sugar albeit a healthier form of sugar.🤷🏻♀️
If a person loses that much in one week ot's water!
Molasses turns your hair from gray ti black due to the copoer content of u want to keep grets away. Just be careful because molasses has lead in it too

Magnesium saved my daily life as I prayed for.I was on an event monitor for a whole month. The last week I started taking Magnesium within 3 days, they were gone. They had gotten so bad that I developed a cardiac cough when they were intense. However once the heart palpitations went away, so did the cough.Also, I got my results back, and no problem with my heat was found...PBTA!!!
I too get the cough when they are bad 😢
What brand magnesium did you buy ? I am praying it helps mine go away !
@Rachel Nanalis Life Extension Magnesium Caps 500 mg - Essential Mineral Blend For Cardiovascular & Whole-Body Health - Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, Vegetarian -100 Vegetarian Capsules
Everybody is different keep doing your research...I really hope these work for you as well...Still to this day no heart palpitations and mines were really strong .
I have the cough when they are intense also. Really strange.
Fixed 65 years of heart palpitations with no more calcium supplements and 5 grams of magnesium glycinate per day.
Great video! You did forget low progesterone and low ferritin/anemia can both greatly cause heart palpitations.
Yes! When my ferritin was 18 I had the worsssst anxiety, panic attacks and just felt like walking death. When I paid for an infusion they went away

Yes this is 💯
@@L4JRapture what is that? A supplement or?
After I eat just about anything I can get them. Not always, but after I eat is they are more common. So Dr. Berg is right about being related to digestion 4 and 5.
Top causes of heart palpitations:
• Stress
• Caffeine
• Wine
• Gluten
• Bile sludge
• Food allergies
• Certain medications
• Hyperthyroidism
• EMF
• Over-exercising/poor sleep
• Magnesium deficiency
The top remedy for heart palpitations:
• Magnesium (from food sources like 4 to 5 cups of greens or 7 to10 cups of salad per day)
(or magnesium glycinate as supplement)
Thank you Dr Berg!
You forgot the most important cause. The Jab
Potassium deficiency. you don;t need much but you do need it.
2 large glasses of wine & a large bag of chips!! (UK.) (gulp !)
Thanks 😊
Thanks for sharing
I’ve been taking magnesium daily since 2009 to prevent any deficiency related heart issues. It helps with muscle cramps too, as in I never get them anymore.
Yep. Magnesium really does work for me. When my heart feels like it is beating wildly, I take Magnesium and wash it down with mineral water. Sometimes I also add Potassium. Its crazy how fast this acts. I notice it mostly when I am trying to fall asleep - the phenomenon will keep me from sleeping until I take the supplements.
Our food is so depleted nutritionally I don't know really how we are surviving.
I'm so glad to not have those anymore... So freaky to live with such a thing. Thank you so much for your hard work. Thanks for your team also!

How'd you get rid of them?
@@codiannsmith About 40% of it decreased by using his data on healthy keto and intermittent fasting which decreased my hunger/ amounts of meals and increased my electrolytes by using avocados/ leafy greens. Another huge percentage by using his electrolytes. Another percentage went out by using his data on stress / taking responsibility for things that stress me out.
I have these when I have panic attacks, which for awhile, was happening almost daily. I increased my water intake and I limit myself to one cup of coffee per day. It's lessened. But I still get stressed just to PTSD and who I am as a person. My boyfriend and I are stitching back to keto-vore diet. I've always felt way better on a keto/carnivore diet.
Organic whole food B vitamins are crucial for me
Iron deficiencies can also cause heart palpitations. That was one of my first symptoms. Given 1/4 women are walking around iron deficient it's too bad you didn't include this.
Magnesium not only stoped my palpitations but it calms me way down. I take a multiple dose of 3-4 a day.
Thank you Dr. Berg. You are helping me learn even more about some of my symptoms from Lyme disease. It’s hard to remember all the ways to continue to work on my health. This is my life now, but my symptoms are rare now thanks to my Lyme literate doctor and other doctors like you. God Bless. 🙏

Oxilate poisoning can cause it too, I stopped raw cacao in my coffee, and it stopped them immediately.
I wonder if acupuncture or acupressure therapy would help disrupt crystalline build-up caused by oxalates.
Could also be the caffeine in cacao.
@@dontfit6380 No, I have pleanty of caffeine still - oxilates can work directly on the heart's nerves - the pacemaker - soon after consumption.
@@campbellpaul Your body naturally expels the harmful Oxalate Crystals when you go on the "Carnivore Diet." I've been on it for almost a full year and had MANY HEALINGS!!! See Dr. Ken Berry's vids on here, he is a Carnivore expert.
Magnesium has absolutely made a world of difference for my palpitations, I was so scared all the time they would have my anxiety through the roof, all sorts of strange and scary feeling all over my body when I would hyperfocus on them.
Same experience... It felt really bad especially at the onset of palpitations
Organic whole food B vitamins are also a huge deficiency along with magnesium, potassium, calcium and sea salt
That’s how I’m feeling right now. Is so scary 🥲
Dehydration - not drinking enough water can be a culprit also. That was my problem.
This is so true. It really works. I’m living proof.
This cause wasn't mentioned in the video, so perhaps it's not one of the most common, but I've struggled with iron deficiency anemia off and on the last few years, and I get palpitations when the anemia is back. I'm also in my early 50s, and thought perimenopause might be the cause, but I only seem to get the palpitations and racing pulse when the hemoglobin has dropped down to anemic range.
That's true. Anemia causes palpitations
Going through the same
It is reassuring that palpitations are more likely not a heart problem, especially when considering the many different things that can cause them. I've discovered that different things can trigger them in me with different quick remedies. On one occasion they would just not stop for maybe half an hour or so. Something told me to drink a glass of cold water. Gone in an instant. At the time I was working outside and it may have been a warm day. Sometimes I get them when going to bed and lying on my side, somewhat squashing my rib cage, and probably having eaten something too late. I re-position to take the pressure off my chest, and poof, gone.
Palpitations can be common during perimenopause. They started for me at the age of 42. Doctor wanted to put me on estrogen for life. I saw a cardiologist who determined they were caused by stress, caffeine, and hormones. My only caffeine source was chocolate since I don’t drink caffeinated drinks. I abstained from chocolate for eleven years, and then gradually reintroduced it. Thankfully, I can eat it now. I discovered magnesium supplementation on my own, and it saved me.
YESSSSS regarding perimenopause I’m in perimenopause and it’s complete MISERY what all comes with it! hormones are a big problem for us women what we go through!
Thanks for this!
I only drink one cup of Coffee, in morning, also.
My problem is - I can't possibly eat 7-10 cups of Salad daily. I just don't eat that much food!

I had heart palpitations for a while, did many tests, ultrasound, ECG, even a 24 hr heart monitor, nothing but "a harmless extra beat". All I did was stop the multivitamin I was taking and they went away. Sometimes too much of a vitamin can cause it.
Thank you for this information. There's no way to get this kind of guidance just by going to the doctor's office.
Hello doctor, I want to let you know about a situation where I had a digestive issue, causing me to have anxiety, rapid heart, extreme fatigue and a week of green poop.
I initially, did what you suggested (which is a great remedy) and upped my B1 vitamin. I also took betaine for each meal. Unfortunately, this did not work at removing my green poop.
But one thing I do as a habit when I feel sick or off, I will sit down and write down what I did in the last 24-48 hours. Where did I go? What activities did I do? And I’m looking for anything out of the ordinary that could have caused my illness. And this time “one thing” stuck out.
I went to the chiropractor. And while there, I was placed on a table with a vertebrae decompression device. This device wraps around your head and gently stretches the neck.
It was right after this visit, that my poop turned green and all the other issues showed up.
After a week the green poop went away. Then I did some decompression again. And sure enough, my green poop came back.
So searched green poop and spine decompression. And there it was! I was getting green poop from aggravating my Vagus nerve.
I have stopped doing the decompressions. And now focusing on being kind to my Vagus nerve, with help from your videos. And I’m back to good.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Dear Dr Berg. I take time to give you my feed back. I took your recipe: chopped organic garlic, in water, with a drop of organic olive oil. Maceration 15 minutes. After one week : no more palpitations 😀 Incredible ! I hope it will help somebody there. Thanks Doctor.
I was having palpitations about 15 years ago. I finally linked them to monosodium glutamate in foods .Magnesium blocks it from crossing the brain barrier. So many of the processed food manufacturers have other names on their labels for monosodium glutamate and it’s confusing. I stopped eating any foods that might trigger palpitations including a well-known brand of yogurt.
Yes magnesium glycinate does work for palpitations. I started taking them last year and didn’t have palpitations until something else caused them
How many months did you see changes and which brand did you buy the magnesium Glycinate
It's easy to get burned out if you have coffee first thing in the morning because you already have hormones in your blood, such as epinephrin and cortisol. It's best to wait until mid-morning, when that wears off and you may naturally feel the effect of those hormones reducing. I get up around 5 AM and typically don't have my first cup of coffee until around 9:00 or 10:00. I typically have two or three cups a day, and I'm not very caffeine sensitive. I do drink a lot of tea, but not before exercise.
Found this video while on a quest to get down to the bottom of my PVC's ! I'm 49, likely peri-menopausal but didn't want to blame my sudden onset of PVC's (more than 10 a minute for the last month!) on hormones alone. Unlike most of America, I exercise frequently, eat pretty healthy, maintain a good weight, do not smoke, but I do have a high stress shift work type job (work on a medevac helicopter) that I've always thought was the cause of some insomnia issues. I have no health issues, thyroid is normal, take no medications. I always work to stay hydrated but have never taken supplements. I know that PVC's are usually nothing to worry about but TODAY, I had enough. While I was driving, i had so many PVC's i was pre-syncopal and decided to come home to make an appointment with my primary MD. I won't be able to get in for weeks. So I saw this video and tried an electrolyte supplement from Dr. Berg that my boyfriend had purchased recently (120 mg per serving). I double dosed it--- within 20 minutes I am down to just 1-2 every minute and felt better. The ones I do feel are less intense. Of course, with this little experiment, I can not make any definitive conclusion just yet, but I will take this once a day over the course of the month and evaluate from there. ANYWAY, thank you for this! It is worth a try at least for all of you sufferers out there.
Am 62, and I have been having heart palpitations for over two years now, the only way I stop them is to lower my head down to my knees and then they slowly go away. I take no drugs. Stress is probably number one for me.
Ohhh that's not good, man. Seriously, take the magnesium, it's good for stress too. Watch more Dr Berg videos about how to address your stress. If things get better lowering your head, you might have a circulatory problem, perhaps a blockage. Get checked!
Per an earlier video from Dr Berg about magnesium and potassium for palpitations, I began to eat mixed nuts and sunflower seeds just like one would take a prescription. After years of palpitations, they almost entirely quit within a few days.
That's great.
Much needed video
What he is saying is absolutely right, because even i went through this terrible condition n later i was diagnosed with gall bladder stone
The moment my gall bladder got removed ,i had no more palpitations
But i swear palpitations sucks
Thank you soooooo much doctor
Palpitations suck the life out of you..
Dr Berg please address the hiatal hernia aspect of this.
Food sensitivities can affect the hernia causing the stomach to creep up higher and cause the diagram to touch the bottom of the heart causing palpitations.
Quick way to stop AFIB is to drink a cup of celery juice 🥤 but no caffeine less salt and sugar and skip the white and wheat flour. LOOK FOR TRIGGERS!
