Nutrition Supplements

I spent way too much time struggling with fatigue. There were days that I struggled with getting off the couch. I gained almost 20 pounds within a year without changing eating habits. I was bloated constantly. I hated the way I felt. It took a long time, but after two years, I finally found a doctor that would listen to me. Functional Medicine I am a registered nurse. I even have a master’s…

It’s NOT “Just” Sweat

It’s NOT “Just” Sweat

It turns out the ubiquitous little dish of lentils at every Panamanian meal is what keeps their electrolytes topped up and prevents dehydration. If, doing what you do, you would ordinarily “break a sweat,” then here in Panama – in the tropics – sweat will pour off you by the bucketful. Nobody – sorry, Southern ladies – NOBODY “glows” here. Rather, you liquify. The thing is, if you aren’t careful,…

This is a great question to think about electrolytes and how the kidneys (or lack of healthy ones) affect them. Each one will be hypo or hyper and then of course FVE or FVD and the acid base status. 

A 50 year old female with renal disease was admitted to the hospital following a seizure. What fluid, electrolyte and/or acid-base disturbances would you suspect with this patient? 

• Calcium • Magnesium  • Phosphorus  • Potassium  • Sodium  • Fluid  • Acid-Base

ANSWER: Hypermagnesemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, Metabolic Acidosis, FVE, hypocalcemia.

As the Acidosis forms, calcium bound to protein is released, and then moves out of vascular space to muscles. This brings the level of Ca down. Serum Ph has an inverse relationship with ionized calcium level. Serum ph rises and blood becomes more alkaline: more calcium binds with protein, ionized calcium levels drop. Vice versa in acidosis. When the acidosis occurs the calcium breaks its bond with calcium, once free, the calcium moves out of vessels to muscles...causing a serum drop. Hence you get the hypocalcemia.
