Does vitamin E help with heart palpitations during perimenopause?
Some women find that vitamin E helps manage heart palpitations during perimenopause, though individual results vary. The connection between vitamin E and heart palpitations involves how this supplement interacts with the hormonal and neurochemical pathways that become disrupted during perimenopause.
The evidence for using vitamin E specifically for heart palpitations ranges from anecdotal reports to clinical studies. What matters most is whether it works for your body. Many supplements need 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use before you can fairly evaluate their effect on symptoms like heart palpitations.
If you want to try vitamin E for heart palpitations: Start with a lower dose, choose a reputable brand with third-party testing, and track your heart palpitations severity daily so you have objective data. Continue your other management strategies (sleep, exercise, stress reduction) while testing vitamin E so you can isolate its effect.
Always check with your healthcare provider before starting vitamin E, especially if you take other medications or have existing health conditions.
