Palpatations when eating Bananas?


Question:

Answers:
Bananas have potassium in them and potassium affects your heartbeat. Too little potassium and you could have problems so it sounds like you get plenty of potassium per the palpitaions. I know someone with heart problems and shes on a diuertic which means she has to take potassium to make sure her heart gets enough
You are most likely allergic to bananas. You should write down a list of things to discuss with your Dr next time you go in so you dont forget
It has to do with how your body absorbs the nutrients in a banana. Be careful you might have a problem with other food check with your Dr.
WHAT IS A PALPATATION?
I don't know if this is relavent, but my sister had a problem of too much potassium, which may cause problems for you as well. As near as I can tell, this is something that can be checked with a blood test.
