Irregular Heartbeat

[2005] 

[Attendee] 

I have atrial fibrillation. 

[Kathy] 

What's that? 

[Aajonus] 

Irregular heartbeat. 

[Attendee] 

It's when the atrium beats faster, it flutters. 

[Aajonus] 

And that's good. Your heart's dancing.  

[Attendee] 

It's been dancing steady for two years, irregular. 

[Aajonus] 

My father, he was diagnosed with it when he was 62 years old, he had a smart doctor and he said, "Stop counting".  

[Kathy] 

You mean it's called, "A Regular Heartbeat"? 

[Aajonus] 

Irregular heartbeat, it beats very rapidly, sometimes you're in arrhythmia happens where it beats rapidly, and then it'll beat a bit, miss a beat and go rapidly. Again, it was just irregular heartbeat, but usually rapid heartbeat is a part of it.  

[Attendee] 

Rapid isn't part of mine. 

[Aajonus] 

Yours is always rapid, you have no cessation? 

[Attendee] 

No, it's not rapid. It's irregular. It's caused by the atrial fibrillation. 

[Aajonus] 

Yeah, but that's not a bad thing.  

[Attendee] 

Well, according to the cardiologist- 

[Aajonus] 

The cardiologist is trying to make his money. 

[Attendee] 

Well, no. I don't do any drugs. I don't go to cardiologists, but when I did they wanted to put me on coumadin. 

[Aajonus] 

That's right, they want to put you on drugs. 

[Attendee] 

I said, no, I'm not going to do rat poison. What they did instead- I have a holistic doctor, and it's fish oil, and some things so the blood doesn't coagulate.  

[Aajonus] 

Coagulation is not a fibrillation problem.  

[Attendee #2] 

What about C0Q10?  

[Attendee] 

Yeah, that's another. 

[Aajonus] 

Again, those are all chemicals. Those are manmade chemicals. They're not made by the body. Your body makes your own C0Q10, but they don't sell what the body makes. They do in the chemistry lab. 

It's an entirely different substance. It has no vitamins, no enzymes attached to it.  

[Attendee] 

So, the theory is that we have this condition. We're more likely to get a stroke.  

[Aajonus] 

That is absolute fiction. There's no evidence to prove that. That's a hypothesis without any basis of proof, and if you read "The Cholesterol Myth", you'll read a lot of the fallacies about heart conditions that are attributed to that. 

The fish oil is good idea because the muscles need fat. However, you cannot get a non-purified fish oil that isn't purified with a chemical solvent, and the FDA requires it to get it into this country. So, even if it's from Norway, it is all purified, chemically purified. It is a toxic substance.  

[Attendee] 

So, what oils would be the same as fish oil? 

[Aajonus] 

Butter, and fish, eating butter and fish together is great. 

My father is now 89 this year, and he's at that atrial fibrillation now for 27 years.  

No problems. Never had a surgery.
