Arrhythmia is heart rhythm problem which occurs when the electrical impulses that coordinate your heartbeats don’t work properly, causing your heart to beat irregularly, or to fast, or too slow, or to miss a beat. Your heart may feel like it’s fluttering or racing.
Arrhythmia may be caused by coronary artery disease or an electrolyte imbalance Potassium, sodium, calcium, and magnesium are the substances in your blood which make up electrolytes. They help conduct the electrical impulses in your heart. If the electrolytes in your blood are too high or too low it can affect your heart’s electrical impulses and contribute to the development of arrhythmia. Arrhythmia affects millions of people in just America alone and can be life threatening.
