3 x 1/2 minutes important for life.
This is an important message, shared by a doctor, for those who get up at night / early morning from sleep to urinate
Each individual must take note of the 3 x 1/2 minutes important for life.
Why is it important? 3 x 1/2 minutes will greatly reduce the number of sudden deaths.
Often we hear that a person, who still looked healthy, has died in the night.
The reason is that when you wake up at night to go to the bathroom, it is often done in a rush.
Immediately when we stand, the brain lacks blood flow.
In the middle of the night when you are awakened by the urge to urinate for example, ECG pattern can change.
Because getting up suddenly, the brain becomes anaemic and causes heart failure due to lack of blood.
In such a situation, advice to practice "3 1/2 minutes," becomes a blessing. These "3 1/2 minutes" are:
1. When waking from sleep, lie in bed for the 1st 1/2 minute;
2. Sit in bed for the next 1/2 minute;
3. Lower your legs, sitting on the edge of the bed for the last half-minute.
After 3 x 1/2 minutes, you will not have anaemic brain, reducing the possibility of a fall and and as a result, heart will not fail.
Share with family, friends & loved ones.
It can occur regardless of age; young or old. more

GOOD ADVISE. IT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO URINATE WHILE SITTING IN An ENGLISH TIOLET, RATHER THAN DOING SO IN STANDING POSTURE. ONE CAN LOOSE CONSCIOUSNESS IF BRAIN LACKS OXYGEN DUE TO SUDDEN STANDING. more
