I'm trying to figure out if it's safe to include curd or milk in the diet for someone with high triglycerides and high LDL cholesterol. Is there any benefit or should they be avoided?

For individuals with high triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, low-fat or fat-free milk and curd can be a better option, as they are lower in saturated fats and calories compared to full-fat dairy products; however, it's essential to choose unflavored, unsweetened, and low-lactose options to minimize added sugars and calories.

I've been experiencing this pain that comes and goes between my breasts, and I'm really worried it might be related to my heart. Can you help me figure out if it's something serious?

Pain in between the two breasts that comes and goes can be related to various causes, including musculoskeletal issues, gastrointestinal problems, or even heart-related issues. It is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues, especially if you have risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. I recommend you to take an ECG test to rule out any heart-related problems. If the pain is due to heart issues, medications like Aspirin and Nitroglycerin may be prescribed.
