I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I'm a 28-year-old male, and I've been told I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. It's been about a week now, and I'm starting to find that I'm having a bit of trouble with breathing and noticing my heartbeat more. Sometimes it feels like my heart skips a beat, and occasionally I feel like my heart is struggling to pump. What kind of diet and exercise would be good for my condition?

For grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, it is important to focus on a heart-healthy diet and regular exercise routine. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats in your diet. Limit your intake of sodium, saturated fats, and added sugars. Stay hydrated and avoid excessive alcohol and caffeine consumption. For exercise, aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week, such as brisk walking, cycling, or swimming. Additionally, include strength training exercises at least twice a week to improve overall cardiovascular health. As for your symptoms of difficulty in breathing, feeling your heartbeat, and heart palpitations, it is important to monitor your condition closely. If these symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
