Cucumbers are a good source of potassium. Drinking cucumber water helps your body get more potassium, potentially helping to lower your blood pressure.

Question

I'm really concerned about my dad's health. His recent report showed that his ejection fraction is at 38 when it's supposed to be around 50. He's having trouble with breathing too. Can you tell me how serious this is and what kind of treatments or precautions we should be considering?

Question

I've had all my reports come back normal, including ECG, echocardiography, TMT, CT coronary angiogram, but I still experience chest pain every day. My cardiologist recently did a normal angiogram, and it showed slow flow. Can you tell me how long I might live with medication?

Question

I've been a smoker and drank alcohol almost every day for the past decade, dealing with high cholesterol and triglycerides all this time. I just started medication for these issues. Recently, I had a 2D echo and TMT that both came back normal. Can I assume everything's okay with my coronary arteries if both tests look good, especially now that I've quit smoking and drinking?
