Vitamin C keeps heartbeat steady
Q: I recently underwent cardioversion treatment for my irregular heartbeat. I know the fibrillation can come back—what can I do to reduce my chances of a quick recurrence?
Dr. Wright: Recently, a group of Greek researchers reported that plan old vitamin C can significantly decrease recurrence of atrial fibrillation after cardioversion treatment. There hasn’t yet been any long-term follow-up research. But with all the other health benefits of vitamin C, it certainly couldn’t hurt to take 2 grams (or perhaps a bit more) each day.
