For example, there is persuasive evidence that avoidance of certain foods may beneficially affect atrial fibrillation––such as the avoidance of dark fish and alcohol. Whole food, plant-based diets emphasizing whole grains, legumes (beans, split peas, chickpeas, and lentils), vegetables, fruits and nuts, and excluding most (or all) animal products may play a special role, as they not only maximize protective foods, but also exclude potentially harmful animal foods.
And indeed, low-carb diets are associated with an increased risk of overall mortality, dying from any cause, as well as specifically dying from cardiovascular disease, and dying from cancer.ĭietary recommendations for patients with heart rhythm disorders is essentially the opposite of a low-carb diet, centered on a day-to-day basis around fruits, vegetables, grains, beans, and nuts, with seafood at most a few days a week eggs, dairy, and chicken on more like a once-a-week basis and other meat on more of a once-a-month basis, in part because we’re trying to cut down on saturated and trans fats. Finally, the effect could result from the increased risk of other cardiovascular disease, which can set you up for Afib.

Secondly, a low-carbohydrate diet means increased protein and fat consumption, which may stimulate oxidative stress––the formation of free radicals, which was also demonstrated to be associated with Afib. Reducing intake of these anti-inflammatory foods may be one of the important mechanisms for the risk of getting Afib. First of all, people on low-carb diets may be eating fewer anti-inflammatory foods like vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Low-carb diets are associated with increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation, for a variety of reasons.
Well, recently we learned what not to eat. Is there any particular diet that may help prevent or treat it?
Greger may be referring, watch the above video.Ītrial fibrillation, or Afib, is the most common clinical arrhythmia––meaning abnormal heart rhythm––affecting millions of Americans, recognized as a global public health problem due to its significant burden of death and disease resulting from stroke, heart attacks, and heart failure.
