it is not known to cause a fib
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Atrial fibrillation is a cause of rapid irregular beating of the heart.
It can be caused by different conditions including an anaphylactic attack (this is a severe allergic reaction). This is the only situation in which the use of nuts can possibly result in a fib.
There was a medical study looking at over 20 000 persons published in nutrition journal which tried to determine if there was any connection between nut consumption and a fib. No association was found.
The other causes of a fib are: hormonal diseases, genetic factors, increasing age, neurological disease, alcohol or drug use, inflammation, reduced blood supply to the heart.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
