What can happen when your heart stops?

Cardiac arrest results in death within several minutes unless the heart is restarted. The amazing thing about the heart is that it rarely just stops dead without warning. Even when no pulse is detected, the heart may still be in fibrillation (quivering) and it is possible to restart it if an electric shock is delivered using an appropriate medical device. If you come across a collapsed person with no pulse, call an ambulance and start CPR until help arrives.

What is o negative blood type?

Every blood type has benefits and drawbacks. Persons with O negative blood have higher tendencies to develop ulcers and thyroid disorders. These persons may have higher stomach acid content meaning meat and proteins are more easily digested, but it also can lead to digestive disorders like ulcers. Fruits such as Oranges, strawberries, rhubarb and blackberries can irritate the acidic stomachs of type O persons. Conversely, alkaline fruits such as plums, Prunes and figs can balance high acid levels reducing ulcers and stomach lining irritation. Saltwater Fish like mackerel, herring and cod are excellent sources of iodine which aids in thyroid function. Avoid wheat and dairy which aren't easily digested by type O persons to avoid weight gain.

Is 482 platelet count bad hemoglobin 9 and hematocrit 31?

First, it depends on whether you're a man or woman (assuming you're not a child-children have a naturally lower count) and the reason for the low counts. Don't know about the platelet count, but a hemoglobin count of 9 and hematocrit of 31 would indicate moderate anemia in a woman and more severe anemia in a man. I know breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy are generally given a blood infusion at a HGB count of 8 or lower. Anemia can have many causes, from the scary stuff to simple nutritional deficiency or over-hydration. Since you must have gotten these results from a doctor, why not ask him or her yourself and get a better answer based on your particular situation?

Will you pass a drug test after taking ayahuasca?

Yes. Absolutely yes. There are two types of chemicals within the ayahuasca brew, an MAOI (which, in the brew, is found in Banisteropis Caapi) and DMT (the plant which provides this changes), which is what causes the hallucinations. Both of these occur naturally within the human body. If you had to take a drug test specifically for DMT, they may be able to determine it in large levels, but the only way you would have to do that is if you have a possession charge for DMT specifically.
