Yes drinking water before bed is good for your heart.

Being dehydrated can lead to high blood pressure and cause heart disease and other heart health issues.

So by drinking water before bed and during the day your blood pressure stays down and your blood stays thin like it should be.

Being dehydrated also thickens the blood which leads to blood clots which is also another reason for heart attacks and so by drinking water you can help prevent a heart attack.

Drinking water does calm your heart and can help prevent heart disease and heart failure.

Good hydration can prevent or slow down the changes in the heart that lead to the condition.

Drinking eight glasses a water a day throughout your life could reduce the risk of heart failure 25 years later, according to new research.

Drinking less water and not staying hydrated can cause a heart attack.

When you're dehydrated the dehydration thickens your blood and makes your blood vessel walls constrict which can cause hypertension, or high blood pressure, and strain your heart.

Overtime this leads to a buildup of plaque in the arteries.

Blockage of the arteries can cause a heart attack.

To prevent a heart attack at night drink a glass of water before bed and also take an aspirin before bed and daily.

Taking an aspirin daily can help keep your blood from clotting and prevent a heart attack and drinking water can also calm your heart and keep you from having a heart attack.

Also exercise and eat healthy to keep your heart healthy.

Usually, a blood clot causes a heart attack by keeping blood from flowing through one of your coronary arteries.

Less often, a coronary artery spasm can cut off your blood flow.

Heart attacks can happen when you're asleep or awake.

During most heart attacks your body does warn you of the impending heart attack.

However not all heart attacks will show signs and your body does not always warn you of an oncoming heart attack.

But when your body does warn you have a heart attack you will usually experience chest pain, tightening of the chest, numbness in your arm, heart palpitations, shortness of breath.

Other signs and symptoms of a heart attack are tightness or pain in the chest, neck, back, or arms, as well as fatigue, lightheadedness, abnormal heartbeat, and anxiety, pain between shoulder blades, arm, chest, jaw, left arm, or upper abdomen, dizziness, fatigue, lightheadedness, clammy skin, cold sweat, or sweating, heartburn, indigestion and even vomiting.

During a heart attack or before a heart attack Women are more likely to have atypical symptoms than men.

Yes Tachycardia can cause a heart attack if it's left untreated.

However not all people who experience Tachycardia have a heart attack but it can lead to it so it's best to get checked out.

Tachycardia is when your heart beats 100 times per minute or faster and does not slow down.

Stress, Anxiety, Exercise, Exerting yourself etc can all cause Tachycardia which is a fast heart rate.

If your heart does not slow down when it's beating too fast get to the emergency room just to be safe because you can have a heart attack at any age.

I've known some 20 year olds and 30 year olds who have had heart attacks and nearly died so always get checked out.

Yes a heart rate of 120 beats per minute can be dangerous especially if you haven't been exercising and or the heart rate does not slow down within 5 to 20 minutes of resting.

A heart rate of 100 or more is considered not good and is called Tachycardia and you should see a doctor or go to urgent care or the emergency room to get checked out.

A bad heart rate is when your heart is beating faster than 100 beats per minute.

If your heart is beating less than 100 beats per minute then it's usually okay but if your heart continues beating as fast as 100 beats per minute or more than you may be experiencing a health problem such as Tachycardia which is when your heart beats too fast.

It's normal for your heart to beat rapidly after exercise, when being stressed out or suffering from anxiety or even when you're exerting yourself working.

A heart beat of around 100 beats per minute is usually normal but your heart should not beat more than 100 times per minute.

If you've rested and your heart is beating more than 100 times per minute and doesn't slow down then go to the ER to get checked out.

You could be having heart palpitations or your heart could be telling you that you may be having a heart attack.

Not all heart attacks will cause pain and there's a thing such as as silent heart attack.

So it's best to get checked out just in case.

Some people have heart beats of around 160 beats per minute or less and go to the ER.

Remember that your heart should not continue to beat more than 100 times per minute after you're resting.

Heart Palpitations are rarely serious enough to need to visit the ER.

Most heart palpitations are nothing to worry about however they can seem scary.

if the heart palpitations do not go away within 24 to 48 hours or the heart palpitations continue or get worse then you should go to the ER for the heart palpitations.

I get some heart palpitations myself about twice per month and I did go to the ER for them because I was unsure about them the first time it happened.

But nothing was wrong with me and they said the heart palpitations were nothing to worry about until I had any chest pain, tightness, arm numbness etc.

Heart Palpitations are where you have a fast-beating, fluttering or pounding heart which can be caused by stress, anxiety, nervousness, medication and exercise.

Some medical conditions may cause heart palpitations but the good news is most heart palpitations are not serious or life threatening.

Usually resting and relaxing will stop the heart palpitations.
