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'm really concerned about my cholesterol levels. I had really high LDL cholesterol at 293, but after taking medications like Rosuvastatin, changing my diet, and exercising more, my bad cholesterol has apparently gone down to normal. I'm wondering though, since high bad cholesterol is known for causing blockages in arteries, does it mean I'm in the clear now that my levels are normal? Or should I still be worried about any existing blockages?
After reducing your bad cholesterol levels with Roseday 10, diet, and exercise, it is likely that the risk of blockages in your arteries has decreased. However, it is important to continue with a healthy lifestyle to maintain these improvements. Regular monitoring of your cholesterol levels is also recommended to ensure they stay within a healthy range.

I'm looking for a second opinion on a diagnosis we got. There's an 85% blockage in the main artery. Do you think we should go for stenting right away?
In case of 85% blockage in the main artery, stenting is often recommended to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of complications. The medication used for stenting is Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg once daily, in addition to Aspirin 81mg once daily. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
