What you see in almost all these cases is low magnesium. When the magnesium level is low, the glutamate receptors become hypersensitive, and so people -- athletes in particular, if they are not supplementing with magnesium -- are prone to sudden cardiac death, because of the glutamate receptors. If they eat a meal or something that contains glutamate or drink a diet cola before practice, it will produce such intense cardiac irritability, they'll die of sudden cardiac death. |

See article keywords and concepts | | One of the things that has been noticed about sudden cardiac death is that most that have it, other than athletes, die after eating a meal in a restaurant. I suspect it's because these people have low magnesium. They eat the meal, the glutamate stimulates the glutamate receptor in the cardiac conduction system as well as the hypothalamus, and they have a sudden cardiac death.

Mike: Of course, that death certificate doesn't say they died from MSG.
Dr. Blaylock: No, and it's not going to, because the admitting physician doesn't know the first thing about any of this research. They've never heard of it. |

Dr. Timothy Scott
See book keywords and concepts |  One study concluded, "Current use of antipsychotics in a general population is associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death, even at low doses," and then added, "Risk of sudden cardiac death was highest among recent users but remained elevated during long-term use."9 How many patients on these drugs have ever heard such facts? I don't believe I have ever met even one who was familiar with this information.
Movement Disorders
Antipsychotic drugs cause several different kinds of movement disorders, more technically called extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). |

See book keywords and concepts |  Estimates that Vioxx caused at least 28,000 cases of heart attack or sudden cardiac death are "extremely conservative," according to Graham, who blamed flaws within the agency for the 'Vioxx catastrophe."10 More to the point, he claimed to have studies showing deaths related to Vioxx in excess of one hundred forty thousand people. Both of the studies were subsequently published in the September 12, 2006, online edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association."
Graham's credentials are impeccable. |

See book keywords and concepts |  This is clinically important as arrhythmias are the cause of sudden cardiac death, the leading cause of cardiac death in the United States [101]. The effects of EPA and DHA on lowering TG, heart rate, and blood pressure all occur within months to years at doses that are consistent with current dietary recommendations. Fish and/or fish oil consumption has consistently been shown to reduce CHD death (~35%), CHD sudden death (-50%), and ischemic stroke (~30%). |

See book keywords and concepts |  A Harvard study in 2002 on the benefits of nuts concluded that high dietary nut consumption decreased the risk of sudden cardiac death, a leading cause of death among diabetics. Nuts and seeds are also high in plant sterols (phytosterols), which decrease cholesterol and improve heart health.64'65 In the intestinal lumen, phytosterols displace cholesterol and inhibit cholesterol absorption.66
Nuts and seeds are great for plain eating, and for making pates, soups, salad dressings, and nut mylks. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Bhark says that more than half of heart-related deaths are from sudden cardiac death, which is an abrupt disruption of the electrical pattern in the heart. It seems that high levels of stress interfere with the electrical rhythm of the heart. Stress is not just a fight or flight reaction. It can also result from tension created in the body while having to process varying degrees of ever-present external challenges, thus disrupting our inner connection with the laws of nature and even affect the synchronization of our natural rhythms. |
Dr. Timothy Scott
See book keywords and concepts | | Though the FDA's 2005 public health advisory was concerned with the elderly, we have had research for years that indicates that at least some antipsychotics can cause sudden cardiac death even in young adults. A study of 481,744 Medicaid patients in Tennessee found that those taking Haldol, Mellaril or some other older antipsychotics were more than twice as likely to die suddenly of heart failure even if they had never had heart problems before.7 Newer (atypical) antipsychotics appear to have similar risks. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Researchers tested the blood of 94 male study volunteers who experienced an episode of sudden cardiac death (but in whom there was no prior history of heart disease) against 184 matched control study participants who did not experience a cardiac event.
On an average, men who died suddenly had lower levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Among the men with the highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the blood, thete was a 72% reduction in the risk of sudden cardiac death when compared to the men with the lowest levels of these substances in their blood (Albert et al. 2002; Wascher 2002). |

I was in a bookstore in Oxford, Miss. This young guy was there, and he just dropped and died. We took him to the hospital and tried to resuscitate him, and we couldn't. He was only 26 years old, and he had just eaten a big bowl of soup at one of the restaurants.

Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  As we saw previously, overstimulation of these nerves can produce sudden spells of irregular heartbeats and even sudden cardiac death. It is also reasonable to assume that a lifetime of excessive stimulation of these glutamate-sensitive nerves could produce a gradual loss of the nerves in the heart, accounting for their virtual disappearance by age seventy-five. In addition, high glutamate levels in the elderly would increase free-radical generation in the heart muscle itself and the arteries supplying the heart. |

See book keywords and concepts |  EXERCISE TO THE RESCUE
Aerobic exercise is the single best option for anyone who would like to reduce their risk of dying from sudden cardiac death due to heart-rate instability.392
Consistent aerobic exercise is the number-one physical act a person can do to correct leptin resistance. There is no shortcut. The biggest issue is consistency, rather than intensity. How fit one is must be taken into account in terms of how much exercise is done. One must get a relaxed response to the exercise, not exhaustion. |
Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | One frightening condition associated with low magnesium levels is sudden cardiac death. Experimentally, it is known that if you feed animals a diet deficient in magnesium and then frighten the animals, a significant number will die suddenly. The same is true of humans with low tissue magnesium levels; that is, those who have a diet deficient in magnesium. A combined study of a number of heart attack patients found that magnesium infusions could lower mortality rates by 54 percent compared to patients who did not receive magnesium treatment. | | This is especially important in cases of sudden cardiac death in young people, and frequently a cause of death in athletes, in which a segment of the coronary artery is hyperactive and goes into spasm. Magnesium can counteract this spasm.33'
Another frequent cause of death following a heart attack is the development of uncontrollable irregular heartbeats called an arrhythmia. In one study, ten of thirteen patients who had had a heart attack as well as low magnesium levels, developed arrhythmia afterwards. | | This may explain the rising incidence of congestive heart failure and sudden cardiac death following ingestion of meals containing high concentrations of monosodium glutamate. drinks from the diet of fibromyalgia sufferers.247 What makes the study impressive is that these patients had suffered from the disorder for two to seventeen years, and despite numerous treatment attempts were no better until they removed excitotoxins from their diets.
The observation linking excitotoxins to fibromyalgia is further strengthened by the known relationship between exercise and fibromyalgia symptoms. |

But supplemental calcium is important in hypertension, too. Paradoxically, it's been observed that both calcium-channel blockers and calcium supplements can help lower blood pressure."
"How does that work?"
"It's rather complicated, but it has to do with a recently discovered hormone made by the parathyroid gland that affects calcium channels and that is affected by calcium. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The results of this study demonstrated that fish oil supplementation has anti-arrhythmic effects, and can reduce the incidence of fatal myocardial infarction (heart attack) and sudden cardiac death.
Cardiac Mortality: In a recent meta-analysis of fish oil supplementation, the pooled results of many clinical trials showed a dramatic 32% reduction in cardiac mortality (deaths due to heart diseases) and a 23% reduction in overall mortality (death from all causes) among individuals ingesting ther-apeutica amounts of fish oils. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Both conditions have about the same effect on circulation, causing high blood pressure and ultimately leading to angina (chest pain brought on by exertion), heart attack, stroke, and/or sudden cardiac death.
Although arteriosclerosis causes high blood pressure, high blood pressure can also cause arteriosclerosis. Calcium-based and fatty deposits typically form in areas of the arteries weakened by high blood pressure or strain. The consequent narrowing of the arteries then makes blood pressure even higher. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The higher the ratio (four or above), the worse
The omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) lower the risk of sudden cardiac death by 45 percent because they lower triglycerides and bad VLDL cholesterol, raise good HDL cholesterol, lower blood pressure, stabilize heart rhythm, and reduce the chance of blood clots. Fish oil together with a Mediterranean-type diet is a powerful aid in preventing cardiovascular disease.467
Recommended doses range from a total of 1 gram daily of EPA and DHA for people who are healthy to up to 4 grams total for those with high triglycerides or existing heart disease. |
Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | One extremely large study involving 22,070 male physicians between the ages of forty and eighty-four years of age found that eating one fish per week reduced the incidence of sudden cardiac death by 52 percent.305 This is a dramatic reduction when you consider 250,000 people die of a sudden cardiac arrest every year, and that 55 percent of those people have had no previous history of heart disease. Most will die before reaching the hospital, and the survival rate is a dismal 30 percent for those who do make it to a hospital alive. |
Nicola Reavley
See book keywords and concepts |  In this study, the association between fish consumption and sudden cardiac death was stronger than that between omega-3 fatty acid intake and sudden cardiac death. It is therefore possible that other substances present in fish may be exerting protective effects.
However, in a 1995 study, researchers at the University of Washington examined the links between risk of heart attack and the consumption of fatty acids from seafood, and assessed both directly and indirectly through examination of blood samples. |
