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 recently had a TMT test done and I'm trying to wrap my head around the results. The test summary says Total Time is 631, Max HR Attained is 184 bpm, and it's 96% of my target, which is 191. It also mentions Max BP is 190100 and Max workload is 7.6 with Bruce Protocol. My doctor said everything looks fine and that I shouldn't worry, but I just want to make sure all these values are normal. Could you help me understand if there's anything I should be concerned about or if it's all really okay?

I'm a bit confused about my recent ECG results. It mentions "Sinus Rhythm, low voltage QRS, and incomplete right bundle branch block." Could you help me understand what all this means? Should I be concerned about any of these findings? Would love your advice on what steps I should take next, if any.
Sinus rhythm on ECG indicates normal heart rhythm originating from the sinus node. Low voltage QRS complexes may suggest various conditions such as pericardial effusion, obesity, lung disease, or cardiomyopathy. Incomplete right bundle branch block is a conduction delay in the heart's electrical system. Clinically, these findings may indicate underlying heart conditions such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, or pulmonary embolism. Treatment may involve medications like Furosemide for heart failure, Metoprolol for arrhythmias, and monitoring for any changes in symptoms or ECG findings.
