Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
To prevent atrial flutters, you should follow these steps.
1. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Sympathetic over activity can precipitate Atrial flutters.
2. Avoid oily and spicy food. Drink plenty of fluids orally.
3. Avoid smoking and alcohol if you have these habits.
4. Do you regular aerobic exercise like running, cycling and stay fit.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
