EXPLANATION:
Circulating information about the dangers of lazy urination at night, because it causes blockage of blood brain and heart.
In fact, the information is an old hoax that has been circulating again. Quoted from detikHealth, dr. Ayuthia Putri Sedyawan, BMedSc, SpJP, FIHA or who is familiarly called dr Ayu from Mayapada Hospital Lebak Bulus straightened the information. According to him there is no relationship between night urination and aging on heart function.
Mentioned again by dr. Ayu, the terminology of aging heart function mentioned in the message is a bit ambiguous. If you mean a decrease in heart function, it can be caused by a heart attack, arrhythmia, high blood pressure, valve disease, and others.
The Association of Indonesian Cardiovascular Specialists (PERKI) also clarified this claim, according to him, the MAIN CAUSES of blood vessel blockage are hypertension, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, smoking and obesity. And death during sleep is not caused by constriction of blood vessels but is caused by the rupture of plaque in the narrowed blood vessels.

Advanced Narrative:
“An important health information for ordinary people about the problem of night urination, heart & blood vessel blockage.
This is important knowledge about STROKE prevention!!!
The most common symptom in the elderly is a problem NIGHT URINE.
Because they are afraid to pee at night, people are afraid to drink water, they don’t know that if they don’t drink water before going to bed and wake up at night after urinating, they don’t drink water either. THE MAIN CAUSE blockage of cerebral blood vessels for the elderly in the morning.
Actually, night urination is not a bladder problem, the cause is the aging of the heart function.
The suction power of the right atrium from the bottom of the body has been reduced.
During the day, our body is in a standing position, blood flows downward, if the heart function is poor, the blood flowing back up will be less, lower body pressure will be large, so that the elderly during the day will have swelling of water in the lower body.
At night when lying down to sleep, the lower part of the body is relieved from the pressure, much of the water that has accumulated in the body’s tissues returns to the blood.
Too much water, the kidneys start trying to drain water into the bladder, causing night urination.
Usually after lying down to sleep 3~4 hours going to the toilet for the first time.
After finishing, the water in the blood is still increasing, so that after 3 hours it will go to the toilet a second time.
Why is this the main cause of blockage of cerebral blood vessels?
Because after 2 or 3 times urinating, the water in the blood has decreased a lot, coupled with the cold air/weather, then through breathing, the water quickly evaporates, so the blood starts to become CONCLUDE.
During sleep, the body’s metabolism slows down, the heart rate becomes slow, so that thick blood plus slow blood flow makes the narrow blood vessels easily clogged.
This is why ALMOST ALWAYS there is a blockage of the heart & brain arteries in the morning around 5 or 6 o’clock.
The worst case is DIED while sleeping !
*Conclusion
- Urinating at night is NOT a bladder problem, but aging in heart function.
- Before going to bed MUST DRINK a little warm water, after midnight to urinate, drink a little more warm water.
Don’t be afraid to pee at night, because if you don’t drink water it can take your life! - Usually have a LOT OF EXERCISE, body exercise strengthens heart function.
The body is not a machine, the machine will wear out if it is used a lot, the human body is just the opposite, if it is used often it becomes even stronger! - Must REFUSE unhealthy foods, especially those with high levels of wheat flour, baked and fried, then milk, eggs, seafood and other animal meats, excessive consumption of these foods will make blood vessels age too fast!!
