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.

View allI've been having chest pain for the past 56 days and it started with my back. I've done an ECG three times and an ECO once. My blood pressure is 14090, and I'm on Hifen Pofloxacin 400, Ecosprin 75, Amlovas 20, and a PPI as prescribed by my physician, but the pain in my chest is still there. Sometimes it even goes to my left hand. What should I do now?
Based on your symptoms and medications, it seems like you may be experiencing chest pain due to cardiac issues. Since the pain is still persistent and sometimes radiates to your left hand, it is important to seek further medical evaluation. I recommend that you consult with your physician to consider adjusting your current medication regimen. In the meantime, you can take a nitroglycerin tablet for immediate relief of chest pain. Additionally, it would be beneficial to undergo further cardiac investigations such as a stress test or coronary angiography to rule out any underlying heart conditions.

Angioplasty with stent placement was done on me about 2 years ago. I'm on a daily South Indian diet and I'm curious if you could help recommend an ideal diet plan that's still in line with South Indian cuisine. We usually cook with unrefined Gingelly oil, and I'm wondering if that's a healthy choice or if I should be considering a different type of oil. Any advice?
