Now Unlicensed Nutritional Supplements Cause Heart Problems in the Young

California Cardiologists Serve up a New Boogeyman

All these unexplained deaths need to be explained, right? We’ve heard all kinds of reasons for the recent rise in the incidence of young people dropping dead.

Referees’ whistles. Anxiety. High energy bills. And now ‘unlicensed nutritional supplements.‘

UPDATE! Supplements that contain ephedra have been outlawed in California since 2004! Which really makes this article bullshit.

You can read it for yourself, but here’s how the article starts. My emphasis.

‘Cardiologists are sounding the alarm on herbal supplements, which are giving their young patients heart problems.

California-based cardiologist Dr. Danielle Belardo said the most common cause of heart arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat, presenting in her 20-something patients stems from taking herbal supplements.

Belardo said her patients come in taking herbs like bitter orange and ephedra, both linked to irregular heartbeats in case studies and clinical research. 

It's not always straightforward to sort out which compound is the culprit, since Belardo's patients often take multiple supplements, and the supplement trend is growing faster than researchers can keep up.’

Golly gee, this new taking supplement trend is causing all of these 20-somethings to experience all of these terrible heart arrhythmias! And in California, of all places.

A California cardiologist, the state with the second highest covid vaccination rate in the country - 74%! - is seeing all of these healthy minded young adults who have heart issues.

Interesting how there isn’t any mention of the methodology used by this doctor that allows her to determine that supplements are the cause of all of these troubles. Is it too much to expect a mention of her patients’ vaccination rate?

It’s the fish oil and bitter orange that are possibly the culprits in all of these cases.

Definitely NOT the covid vaccines. You see the covid vaccines were totally, exhaustively tested, and our government made sure that these vaccines were safe and effective before telling/making people get them. BUT these nutritional supplements are totally UNREGULATED!

Read this passage and try not to laugh;

‘Dr. Martha Gulati, a California-based cardiologist and president-elect of the American Society for Preventive Cardiology, is among them. Gulati told Insider she is concerned that many people falsely believe taking "natural" remedies means the items are safer than pills made in a lab.’

This is how badly the vaccine narrative has collapsed recently, that California cardiologists, just now, have figured out that nutritional supplements maaaaaay be causing heart problems in the young.
