Arrhythmias are conditions of the heart that cause it to beat abnormally. When the heart beats abnormally, this can result in disturbances in the functioning of the body in many ways. Symptoms can range from very minimal to severe and even death. Although there are various types of abnormal heart rhythms, atrial fibrillation is the most common form, and it originates in the upper chambers of the heart. Chronically skipping meals may increase the risk that one may develop atrial fibrillation through various processes. In this narrative review, the authors discuss these various processes in the hopes that this may help lead to more advanced therapeutic and preventive approaches.
