Vitamin C and AF

There are a number of studies concerning Vitamin C and the prevention of AF recurrence after treatment as shown below:

Has anyone had any experience of using this therapy?

I know it's very difficult to prove a negative, but perhaps it has helped someone with recurrent AF. If it's effective it will be a very simple and cheap post treatment therapy, especially after cardioversion for instance.

Not sure about vitamin c but there are some double blind trials of magnesium pidolate which have been very beneficial for Afib.

I have not had afib, but a different arrhythmia, and I took magnesium tablets (Amazon). It made a big difference. I'm not a doctor and don't know how this would interact with any other meds you are taking

Never heard of Mg Pidolate, I do take Mg Taurate for my ticker, have you a reference for the trials, I'd be interested to read them?
