Re: --Congestive Heart Failure--
ML,
You've floored me big time!
After reading how Beriberi can lead to CHF, I had flames coming out of my ears!
I had already been taking B-1 after discovering that Beta-Blockers deplete B-1 from the body. Now you share with me how Beriberi (Thiamine or B-1 deficiency) can lead to CHF and damage just blew me away!
I've notice now that it's very difficult to do a one day abstinence from my meds. my heart really acts up big time when before it was fairly easy to do.
I can feel the dependency getting deeper ingrained in me. (scary thought)
I'm pretty angry right now. It seems to me that this disguise of a health care system is really a death care system.
We have heart meds that do more harm in the long run than good. Eyeah, they save lives in the short term but sooner or latter, those same meds end up finishing the job they were suppose to prevent!
After 50 or so years of medical research, we still have the same ole same old. No new drugs or methods to make things better for the sick and injured.
That's just ridiculous!
So what do we get for our CHF/Heat Attack Alex?
YOU GET:
Beta-blockers to deplete your B-1 making your CHF worse!
ACE Inhibitors to interfere with your kidneys!
Statins to take your mind apart and destroy your energy plant.
Blood Thinners to turn you into a pin cushion with brain bleed.
Don't forget the bonuses! Kidney dialysis or transplant in the near future! Onset Diabetes and a basketful of other items not mentioned before!
.........and they call this a quality of life?
ML, what can I take (naturally) to increase my Ejection Fracture?
Thanks for your input and for having patience with my rant.
