Just a note to share with those above 50. Health Advisory for all:

Experts always say: Each individual must take note of the 3 x 1/2 minutes. Why is it important?

3 x 1/2 minutes is a FREE practice but will greatly reduce the number of SUDDEN DEATH. Often this occurs during the day when an individual who still look healthy, but died the next night. Often we hear stories of people, yesterday I was chatting with him, why did he suddenly die?

The reason is that when you wake up at night to go to the bathroom, this is often done too quickly: immediately we stand when the brain is still lack of blood flow.

Why "3 x 1/2 minute" is very important? Because of the ECG pattern (Electro Cardiogram). Note: The ECG pattern of a normal person during the day & in the middle of the night when awakened by the urge to urinate, can change. Because of getting up suddenly, the brain will be anaemic and causes heart failure due to lack of blood.

To avoid this, it is advisable to practice "Three 1/2 minutes, " which are:

1. When waking from sleep, lay in bed for the first 1/2 minute
2. Sit in bed for the next 1/2 minute
3. Lower the leg, sitting on the edge of the bed for the last 1/2 minute.

After 3 x 1/2 minutes, brain will not be anaemic and heart will not fail, thereby reducing the possibility of a fall or sudden death when a person wakes up during midnight as we often hear.

Share with people we know to avoid this from happening. It can occur regardless of age, young or old. Sharing is Caring. If you already know, regard this as refresher.
