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 experiencing this ongoing chest pain in the middle area whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for about 2.5 years now. Initially, the doctor mentioned it was anxiety-related, but the pain hasn't gone away and I haven't seen a doctor for the last year because of the whole COVID situation. I'm wondering if this could really just be anxiety or if there's a chance it might be something else, like an esophagus issue. I mean, the pain gets worse with a deep breath, but I don't have trouble breathing otherwise. I did an ECG and a high troponin test about 12 days ago, and both were normal. I've also got acidity issues. What should I do next?

I'm having this issue with pain in my upper chest thats been going on for the last six days, and I'm also dealing with a blocked nose and a bit of a cough. I havent had any fever, but the first day, the pain was pretty intense and felt like a crushing sensation whenever I moved, with pressure in the upper chest area. My hand and shoulder muscles are hurting too, and there's some pain in my back just behind my chest along with prickly feelings every now and then. It's making it really hard for me to sleep. A couple of weeks ago, I had a cold with a fever and a cough but there was no chest pain then. I used to smoke for a few years but I quit smoking about a year ago. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest which specialist I should see?

What does it mean if my ECG report says I have lateral wall ischemia? Should I be worried about how severe this is? I'd really like to understand what this implies for my heart health.
