Holiday heart syndrome causes abnormal heart rhythms.
Hospital Corporation of America interventional cardiologist Dr. Lyndon Box says it can happen after just one splurge.
“Even the one-time binge can be enough to tip you over and cause you have abnormal heart rhythms, especially if you combine that with other things,” Box said.Binge drinking and eating salty foods can trigger holiday heart syndrome.“It can actually happen at a pretty young age. Holiday heart is a condition that can come up even as young as the 20s when people overindulge in alcohol,” Box said.
According to the American Heart Association, irregular heartbeats are associated with serious complications like heart failure and stroke, both of which can cause death in worse-case scenarios.“Limit the proportion size, especially with some of the high salt items like the corned beef,” Box said. “And then also try to flush the system with a fair amount of water after that.”Copyright 2022 by WJXT News4Jax - All rights reserved.
