Moderation is key: Honey contains natural sugars, which can impact blood sugar and calorie intake. Excessive sugar may indirectly affect blood pressure.
-
No direct benefits for blood pressure: Honey does not lower blood pressure and should not be used as a treatment.
-
Choose natural honey: Opt for pure, raw honey without added sugars or preservatives.
-
Consult your doctor: Discuss with your healthcare provider if including honey fits your overall plan for managing high blood pressure.
In summary, enjoy honey in small amounts but prioritize your doctor’s advice and maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle.

I'm currently managing my high blood pressure with telvas 40 and my high pulse with ivabradine 5, which I take twice a day. I also have mild asthma. Is it safe for me to switch to telvas beta 50?
No need to change the medicine . U can continue same treatment since tab telma is safer in asthamatic patients..ARBs are the first line medications in asthmatic patients.
