View allI've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure lately, and it's been around 140100. I've noticed I'm getting headaches more frequently. Should I be worried about these numbers or the headaches? Is this something I need to get checked out or change in my routine? Any advice would be really helpful.
A blood pressure of 140100 is considered high and can contribute to headaches. I recommend you start taking Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name Tylenol) 500mg for your headaches as needed, up to 3 times a day. Remember to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake and increasing physical activity.

I'm really into sports and focus on my diet, but I've been wondering about something. Does eating high carbs actually increase VLDL cholesterol levels? And if so, what kind of carbs are more responsible for this hike? I've been sticking to complex carbs like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes. Just want to make sure I'm on the right track. Can you shed some light on this?
High carbohydrate intake, especially simple carbohydrates, can lead to an increase in VLDL cholesterol levels. Simple carbohydrates, such as those found in sugary foods and drinks, can raise VLDL levels more significantly compared to complex carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes are a better choice as they have a lower impact on VLDL cholesterol levels. To help lower VLDL cholesterol, you can continue consuming complex carbs like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes in your diet.
