Non alcoholic beer

A question that might seem a bit daft . Has anyone found a link between non alcoholic beers and palpitations/ AFIB ?

Yes of course. Just because it is supposed not to have any alcohol in it doen't mean it doesn't have all the other chemicals involved in the fermentation process. They are made just like normal beer and the the alcohol removed with an osmotic process. I point this out to everybody who asks about such matters. Same with " alcohol free" wine . gin or anything else. Why I drink lemonade or water.

Yes, I remember reading many years ago that the 'mixers' were more likely to cause hangover symptoms that a small amount of alcohol.

I tried de-alcoholised wines (which were quite nice) but suffered badly from ectopics, runs of tachy and jumps and bumps. Whatever the trigger is in alcoholic drinks will be there even when the alcohol is gone. For me it the sulphides in wine.
