Re: Heart Flutters?

yes it must be hormone related, i found the same post from women that use yasmin or yaz. it's all mirena related because it's all hormone related just like all the other complaints and recalls.

-----------------------------------------------
How the Vitamin / Mineral functions within the disorder.
-------------------------------------------------
Vitamin B1-
normal functioning of the nervous system- prod. of action potentials & acetyl choline.

Vitamin B3-
It’s active forms NADP & NAD coenzymes are needed for more than 200 reactions in the body. Vasodilation , cellular respiration & biosynthesis.

Vitamin B12-
Essential for the functioning of all cells; DNA & RNA formation; functional integrity of myelin sheath; formation of healthy RBC’s.

Vitamin B13
-Synthesis of bases for RNA & DNA.

Vitamin C -
Neurotransmitter production- serotonin and dopamine; increases cyclic AMP; nec. for conversion of folate to folacin; works with Vit. E as antioxidant; detoxifies body.

Manganese-
Production of Dopamine; Role in brain function- stim. cAMP & regulating role in action of several neurotransmitters; pituitary function.

Zinc-
Foetal N.S. development; structure of myelin sheath; pineal gland & hippocampus.

Silica-
Mucopolysaccharide functions- regulation of metabolites and water in connective tissue.

Vitamin B12-
RBC production & haem production (oxygen carrying to the cells).

Vitamin E-
Capillary dilation & increased collateral circulation.

[b]Calcium-
Initiates skeletal muscle contraction;
Initiates skeletal muscle contraction; sedative to nervous system.Calcium- Normal irritability of nerves; coenzyme to acetylcholine esterase- destroys acetyl choline; allows nerves to return to resting phase after action potential by decreasing permeability of the membrane to Na.; need Ca to trigger release of various substances e.g. hormones , neurotransmitters.

Magnesium-
Muscle relaxation; prevents arterial spasm; function in normal nerve irritability by decreasing the sensitivity of motor end plates to acetyl choline.


Vitamin B2-
Necessary for cellular growth; acts with Vit A in helping maintain the health of mucous membranes & integrity of the epithelial tissue.

Vitamin B9-
Methylation reactions - nec. for all rapidly dividing tissues; RBC production- thus oxygen & nutrients to tissues.

Vitamin A-
maintains all skin, mucous membranes, epithelial membranes; immune function, decreases sensitivity to pollutants, membrane integrity, increases lymphocytes, increases resistance to infection and cancer.

Vitamin B2-
acts with Vit A in maintaining mucous membranes and integrity of epithelial tissue.

Muscle Twitching -
Excessive muscle contraction.

Magnesium-
decreases the sensitivity of motor end plates to acetyl choline (defic. causes "over-excitability").

Zinc-
important function of the thymus gland (immune system); production of retinol binding protein (thus Vit A prod., thus skin etc).

Vitamin B6-
improves liver function.

Zinc-
In high concentration in the retina and lens; action unknown; decreased zinc> direct vision painful, difficulty adjusting to bright lights.

Splitting Nails -
Finger nails Split
Silica- Mucopolysaccharide functions- nail growth; forms a structural part of collagen; gives strength.

Iodine-
Cell differentiation and growth; maintenance of skin and hair; stabilises and controls most biochemical reactions.

Sulphur-
Part of the three S- containing a.a.s - methionine, cysteine and cystine; Muccopolysaccharides, an essential part of connective tissue- strength and elasticity- important for body structure, intracellular ground substance, cell coat.

XS Mn-
abnormalities in bone and cartilage- retard growth ( especially hair and nails).

Varicose Veins -
veins that are distended, lengthened and tortuous. Dilated with incompetent valves.

B Complex-
Maintenance of strong blood vessels and protection against capillary fragility.

Vitamin C-
Formation of collagen used in blood vessel walls; removes calcium out of tissues and keeps it in solution to prevent atheromas adhering to blood vessel wall; antioxidant to prevent free radical damage to vessels.

Bioflavonoids-
Blood vessel strengthener; increases capillary resistance; aids with absorption and utilisation of Vitamin C.

Vitamin E-
Blood vessel dilator; improves circulation and venous return; prevents clots and blockages; antiprothrombic.

Hypothyroidism -
Reduced activity of the thyroid gland.

Copper-
Needed to convert T3 to T4.

Vitamin C-
Increases cell production and action of hormones and stabilises thyroxine.

Iodine-
Part of thyroid hormones.

XS Calcium-
Sedative; decreases basal metabolic rate.

Burning Feet -
A neurologic disorder characterised by symptoms of a burning sensation in the soles of the foot.

Vitamin B1-
normal functioning of the nervous system- prod. of action potentials & acetyl choline.

Vitamin B5-
Synthesis of the myelin sheath; synthesis of acetyl choline.

Vitamin B2-
Needed for tryptophan (a.a for N.S.), B1 B6 for B3 production.

Wakefulness & Vivid Dreams -
sleeplessness or insomnia; (of light or colour) bright, intense.

XS B6

Cramps -
Prolonged painful contraction of a muscle.

Vitamin B6-
Helps form co-enzyme A-need B6 to activate B5; involved in the Na/K pump; magnesium dependent.

Vitamin C-
Neurotransmitter production- serotonin and dopamine; increases cyclic AMP; nec. for conversion of folate to folacin; takes Ca out of tissues and keeps it in solution.





Vitamin C- Maturation of RBCs and release of Fe from ferritin- transport of O2 and nutrients to cardiac cells; adrenal cortex production of corticosteroids- mineralocorticoids- fluid balance- blood volume and blood pressure- hypertension; decreases cholesterol- decreased VLDLs- decreased atheromas (cause of reduction of blood from coronary arteries); takes Ca out of tissues and keeps it in solution to prevent atheromas in vessels.

Chromium- Synthesis of fatty acids, TGs and cholesterol- VLDLs- atheromas; component of GTF & maintenance of normal blood Sugar levels- decreases blood viscosity- decreases formation of atheromas.

Vitamin B12- Essential for functioning of all cells.

Vitamin B13 -Lipid metabolism- decreases TGs and cholesterol

Vitamin B15- Oxygen sparing effect, promotes cellular respiration, decreases hypoxia.

Magnesium- Muscle relaxation by restricting Ca re-entry into cell- dilates arteries and prevents arterial spasm.

Epilepsy - A disorder of brain function characterised by recurrent seizures that have sudden onset. Caused by an uncontrolled electrical discharge from the nerve cells of the cerebral cortex.

Vitamin B9- Choline synthesis; synthesis of noradrenaline; helps to metabolise some of the long chain fatty acids in the brain.

Magnesium- decreases the sensitivity of motor end plates to acetyl choline (defic. causes "over-excitability").

Zinc- Foetal N.S. development; structure of myelin sheath; pineal gland & hippocampus which controls pituitary- secretion of hormones.

Hyperthyroidism - An excess of glucose in the bloodstream .It may occur in a variety of diseases, most commonly in diabetes mellitus, due to insufficient insulin in the blood and excessive intake of carbohydrates.

XS B3- Metabolism of carbohydrates (overstimmulation).
