Heart Attack and Water - I never knew all of this ! Interesting.......
Something else I didn't know ... I asked my Doctor why people need to urinate so much at night time. Answer from my Cardiac Doctor - Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when you are upright (legs swell). When you lie down and the lower body (legs and etc) seeks level with the kidneys, it is then that the kidneys remove the water because it is easier. This then ties in with the last statement!
I knew you need your minimum water to help flush the toxins out of your body, but this was news to me. Correct time to drink water...
Very Important. From A Cardiac Specialist!
Drinking water at a certain time maximizes its effectiveness on the body
2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs
1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal - helps digestion
1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure
1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack
I can also add to this... My Physician told me that water at bed time will also help prevent night time leg cramps. Your leg muscles are seeking hydration when they cramp and wake you up with a Charlie Horse.
Mayo Clinic Aspirin Dr. Virend Somers, is a Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic, who is lead author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 A.M. and noon. Having one during the night, when the heart should be most at rest, means that something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues have been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame.
1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at night.
The reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life"; therefore, if most heart attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin would be strongest in your system.
2. FYI, Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest, for years, (when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).
Please read on...
Something that we can do to help ourselves - nice to know. Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue.
They work much faster than the tablets.
Why keep Aspirin by your bedside? It's about Heart Attacks.
There are other symptoms of a heart attack, besides the pain on the left arm. One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and lots of sweating; however, these symptoms may also occur less frequently.
Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their sleep did not wake up. However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from your deep sleep.
If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards: - Call 911. - Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by.- Say "heart attack!" - Say that you have taken 2 Aspirins.
Take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their arrival and ...DO NOT LIE DOWN!

Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola on Saturday spoke in public for the first time on the health status of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, since the monarch reportedly died in London hospital recently.
The governor noted that the last short text message he received from Oba Sijuwade was touching and promised to share the content of the message with the people of the state when the situation becomes ripe to do so.
Speaking at a special sitting at the Osun State House of Assembly to mark the 50th birthday of the Speaker of Osun Assembly, Hon. Najeem Salaam, the governor stressed that he discussed the message with the Ife Royal Traditional Council during his meeting with them in Osogbo over Ooni’s issue.
Aregbesola contended that a traditional ruler does not die in Yoruba-land and prayed for long life for all the traditional rulers present at the assembly to felicitate with the Speaker on his golden jubilee birthday anniversary.
Aregbesola commended the Speaker for providing effective leadership for the House of Assembly through passage of various laws and other oversight functions for the smooth and unhindered progress of the state.
Meanwhile THISDAY has gathered from sources that the body of Oba Okunade was said to have been moved from ‘Ilegbo’ to Obatala house called ‘Ile Ase’ in Yoruba-land, meaning ‘House of Authority’.
THISDAY recalled that the monarch’s corpse had earlier been given a local embalment at ‘Ilegbo’ before being transferred to ‘Ile Ase’ where he got the spiritual decree he used to assert authority during his life-time.
It was noted that when the corpse of the monarch first arrived the ‘Ilegbo’ one of the deities’ shrines in the palace, the traditionalists were said to have invoked spirits to appease gods of the land.
The sources also disclosed that the traditionalists move to ‘Ile Ase’ where the second rite will be performed after that of ‘Ilegbo’ has been satisfactorily carried out.
It was further gathered that a few days would be used at ‘Ile Ase’ by the fraternity members who would not release the monarch’s body until they finish with the expected rite to be performed at the inner sacrificial house.
The house is said to be unique and symbolic in the sense that all acquired authorities from these gods must be re-claimed from the dead body before being finally laid to rest.

A member of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Ebenezer Babatope, yesterday, in Benin City, declared that the zoning arrangement of the party, jettisoned after the death of President Umaru Yar’Adua, led to the defeat of the party in the last presidential election.
Ebenezer Babatope
He said, therefore, that for the PDP to stand a chance in regaining the presidency in 2019, the party may have to pick its presidential candidate from the North, adding that, apart from impunity and arbitrariness, imposition, allegedly exhibited by the PDP “bureaucracy ahead of the elections, the PDP did not resolve the agitation by northern leaders that the presidency should be ceded to the area due to the sudden death of Yar’Adua until the problem consumed the party and made way for the defeat in the 2015 presidential election”.
Babatope, who urged the PDP to imbibe internal democracy and allow the younger generation to take over the leadership, said, however, that the insinuation that President Muhammadu Buhari may not run in 2019 due to his age “ may become a major problem that may trigger a dangerous split in the party’s arrangement for 2019, and therefore we must be ready for 2019″.
The PDP leader spoke, yesterday, while delivering a lecture entitled: “Nigeria’s 16 Years of Democratic Experiment-Which Way Forward?, organized by Edo State New Dawn, a group under the PDP in the state. The event was attended by members of the party mainly from Edo South, led by the leader of the group and former Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Rowland Owie; High Chief Raymond Dokpesi, chairman of the occasion; Dr Isimeme and Chief Samson Esemuede. Others are PDP governorship aspirant, Chief Solomon Edebiri; Hon.Ifaluyi Isibor and many others.
“Facts remain, however, that we (party elders) made mistakes in the preparations of our party for the elections. For example, it was wrong for our party’s Board of Trustees not have met when we were engulfed with the party campaigns for the elections. Our party played into the waiting hands of the opposition with this kind of situation,”Babatope stated.
“Any of the political parties in Nigeria that attempts to bring impunity to our system or that attempts to push off the effective voice of the people in the determination of its presidential candidate will kiss the political dust and sentence itself to total failure and collapse”.
In his welcome address, the leader of the New Dawn, Owie, said: “We are asking the 8th National Assembly to urgently commence the amendment of the Constitution which they have done twice to give autonomy to local government councils but unfortunately some House of Assembly that are rubber stamp turned it down because if you don’t have autonomy of the local government, Nigeria can’t develop the rural area.
“In the next line of amendment, any House of Assembly in Nigeria that votes against autonomy of the local government, the Nigeria Labour Congress, the ALGON, the market women and men should take possession of the Assembly, they wouldn’t sit until they support the autonomy of local government because enough is enough of destroying that arm”.
On his part, Dokpesi, who explained that the New Dawn in Edo was meant to rebuild the PDP collectively, said members were determined to “reconstruct this party and bring it back to power in Edo in 2016 and at the federal level in 2019”

FG won’t tolerate illegal mining – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday declared that the Federal Government will no longer tolerate illegal mining and other improper activities that had inhibited the growth of Nigeria’s solid minerals sector.
He issued the warning after receiving a briefing from top officials of the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development led by the Permanent Secretary, Baba Umar Farouk.
The President, according to a statement issued by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, noted that the mines and steel sector was very important for the diversification of the economy.
Buhari expressed displeasure at Mr. Farouk’s report that the sector had been overrun by illegal miners.
“This is one of the most demoralizing briefs I have received. The biggest threat to this country besides the Boko Haram is unemployment and the mining sector is key to employment creation.
“We cannot be held back on such a strategic industry that can give us much needed jobs and promote economic growth.
“There must be more seriousness in running this country and we are determined to instill that seriousness,’’ the President said.
The Permanent Secretary had told the President that the mining sector has been infiltrated by “illegal aliens” who carry out unlawful activities in the country.
The statement also said that President Buhari directed the Ministry of Environment to undertake a rigorous study of Lake Chad, with a view to bringing up proposals on how best to reverse the shrinking of the lake, which currently serves as a major source of livelihood for many.

I noticed this, if the DSS is not careful they would start acting like a police.. this is supposed to be an elite team with the main purpose of gathering intelligence and thwarting any criminal or terrorist act against Nigeria. just like the army the DSS have started doing the work of the police. was shocked when I read sometimes that the DSS storms PDPs office. when I read so know reason for their action. Nigerians should be aware that the DSS is one of if not the only respectable security apparatus in nigeria . majorly because they are professional in exercising their duties and they are not to be seen everywhere like what is happening Now

but they did the same thing to APC last year.

*Staff lay siege to, SSS storm secretariat.
The crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has taken a new dimension as members of the Board of Trustees (BoT) and National Executive Committee (NEC) members of the party, appeared to have thrown their weight behind the aggrieved members of staff of the party.
The PDP staffers had last Friday demanded for the sack of members of the National Working Committee (NWC) headed by its acting National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, following the party directive to cut staff and salary by 50 percent.
THISDAY gathered that former national chairmen of the party and BoT members held a meeting with some of the workers at which they expressed support for the workers.
It was learnt that the BoT will likely recommend for the sacked staffers to undergo fresh screening in order to weed out those that are suspected to be moles in the party.
A source at the party secretariat, who spoke to THISDAY said, “The feeling among BoT and NEC members is that since members of the NWC led the party to such an unprecedented defeat in 16 years they should have done the honourable thing and resigned to allow others to come in and rebuild the party from the ruins of the last elections."

The families of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, and the former National Emergency Management Authority, NEMA boss, Mrs Remi Olowu, will, today, join their son and daughter in holy matrimony in Lagos despite the rumoured death of the paramount ruler.
Ooni of Ife, Oba Sijuwade Okunade
Sunday Vanguardlearnt that the two families resolved to proceed with the wedding programme after due consultations with friends and relations.
Meanwhile, there was disagreement between residents of Ile-Ife yesterday on the reason behind the on-going Oro festival in the town which entered its third day today.
Many people of the ancient town, who spoke to our correspondent , believed the announcement of the festival may have been preparatory to the formal announcement of the passage of Ooni.
But some residents insisted that the festival had been scheduled to hold long before Sijuwade’s reported demise.
Media attention has been on the town since the reported demise of the Ooni on Tuesday in a London hospital.
Speaking to newsmen in Ile-Ife, a traditional title holder, who preferred anonymity because he was not authorised to comment on the matter, listed Oro, Olojo, Orunmila, Edi, Oranmiyan, Esu, Obatala among others as some of the festivals celebrated in the town annually.
The chief insisted that the ongoing Oro festival had nothing to do with the “rumoured death of Oba Okunade Sijuwade.”
According to him, the ongoing festival will end on Thursday. He explained that while it lasts, there will be no restriction of movement, except for young and old females that must not see the procession of Oro adherents.
However, the door at the back of the Ooni’s palace, that normally should open at the death of the monarch, remained shut yesterday.
But a palace source explained that “since the door remains permanently closed, it means the monarch is alive.
“The closure of markets for business and ringing of a special gong to announce the death of an Ooni are two major significant signs to indicate that the monarch has joined his ancestors and these are yet to be done”.
“These have not taken place and so our belief is that our Oba is still very much alive”, he added

National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, on Saturday dared the Department of State Services (DSS) to take up the challenge of investigating him as demanded by the Administrative Staff of the party.
The staff who had been at loggerheads with the members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) over alleged plans to downside them and also cut the salaries of remaining staff by half, had accused the NWC members of misappropriation.
The workers specifically mentioned Metuh; Prof Wale Oladipo, the PDP National Secretary, and the Acting National Chairman of the party, Uche Secondus, as the brains behind the problems of the party, asking the security agencies to probe them for misappropriation of N13 billion party fund.
However, Metuh in a statement signed by his Special Assistant on Media, Richard Ihediwa, said Metuh is open to DSS investigation and does not fear that he could be found wanting.
He insisted that the opposition against him was sponsored by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The statement read: “The attention of the Office of the National Publicity Secretary has been drawn to a press statement by persons purporting to be officials of PDP Staff Welfare Association, wherein they engaged in direct attack and threats on the person of the National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh.
“From all indications, those behind the statement chose to drift from issues and narrowed on the National Publicity Secretary.
“This is not unexpected given the role of the National Publicity Secretary in the rebuilding of our great party and how uncomfortable the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has been for his outspokenness.
“We are aware that the anti-PDP forces have easily found a handful of disgruntled PDP staffs as willing tools to attack Chief Metuh with a view to bringing him to public odium, distract him and deny our party a credible voice to propagate its positions.
“These forces had even gone to the extent of engineering some discontented PDP members to portray statements by the National Publicity Secretary as his personal opinions in the attempt to discredit and intimidate him.
“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state categorically that the National Publicity Secretary will not be deterred or detracted by such threats and cheap blackmails as he remains committed to his role in the rebuilding of the PDP and in providing firm, credible and issue based opposition to the ruling party.”

lost the Speakership to Hon. YakubuDogara and then entered a 49-day battle in the quest to clinch the position of the Majority Leader of the House.
Gbajabiamila, who said he was neither desperate to be Speaker nor Leader of the House, revealed that he had turned down the chance to be Deputy Speaker in 2011 following the rebellion that produced Hon AminuWaziriTambuwal as Speaker.

Acting Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Hajia Amina Bala Zakari, has pleaded for understanding from Nigerians, saying it is not humanly possible for her to detach herself completely from all her former acquaintances.
She spoke against the backdrop of increasing uproar over her past working relationship with President Muhammdu Buhari, former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, among other public officers.
Speaking during INEC Half Hour on Thursday, which was monitored on African Independent Television, Hajia Zakari, said it is unfair for anyone to insinuate that she will be bias in the discharge of her duties because she once worked closely with some members of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to her, she was appointed by two former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidents, Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, into various positions but noted that it did not influence the discharge of her duties.
