Is rice bad for cholesterol?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Rice as altogether is not either bad or good for cholesterol. White rice has high cholesterol and also it is easily digestible, so one tends to overeat. On the other hand, brown rice is whole grain with low glycemic index, has less cholesterol and more fiber which promotes fullness.

View allI've been dealing with some annoying symptoms lately like this slight headache, stiff muscles around my neck, facial pain, and just feeling really tired all the time. I started taking some meds initially like amchek 5mg, then switched to amlong 5, and now I'm on omlesar 10 with nebicard 2.5mg. But for a few weeks, I stopped them, and yesterday my blood pressure shot up to 190138. So I got back on just omlesar, but my blood pressure is still pretty high at 180104. What should I do?
It seems like you are experiencing high blood pressure despite restarting omlesar. In this case, you may benefit from adding another medication to better control your blood pressure. I recommend adding a diuretic such as Lasix (furosemide) 40mg to help reduce the fluid in your body and lower your blood pressure. Please consult your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and prescription of this medication. Additionally, it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with a low-sodium diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques to help manage your blood pressure.

Lately, I've been noticing something a bit strange. Whenever I lie down or sit back, I feel my pulse throughout my whole body. It's not constant, just every now and then, and I especially feel it around my hips and the back of my head. The pulse isn't racing or anything out of the ordinary, but it's definitely noticeable. Should I be worried about this or is it just a normal thing?
That could be Gastritis usually,no need to worry its alswys better to get it clear,visit Cardiologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I've been having some issues lately. I'm a 33-year-old guy, and when I'm just resting, my heart sometimes races up to 120-130 beats per minute. I had an ECG, and they said it's sinus tachycardia, but my echocardiogram came back normal. Even though tests seem alright, I still get this fluttery feeling when my pulse is high. What could this be? Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?
Based on your symptoms of palpitations and feeling flurried when your pulse is high, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage these symptoms, I recommend taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10-40mg as needed to help control your heart rate and reduce the feelings of flurriness. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms.
