They're high in soluble fiber, which helps lower cholesterol. They also have polyphenols, which are linked to lower blood pressure and stroke risk.

I'm Aryan, age 24, and I've noticed that my heart rate goes up after I eat, usually below 90. Normally, my resting heart rate is between 65 and 72, but it climbs to 90 post-meal. I've had both an ECG and an echo, and everything turned out normal, but I'm still pretty anxious about it. Do you think I should see a gastroenterologist?

A heart rate increase after a meal, especially up to around 90 beats per minute, can be normal as your body works to digest food. Given that your ECG and echo are normal, it is less likely to be a heart-related issue. If you are experiencing significant anxiety about this, or if you have other gastrointestinal symptoms like bloating, discomfort, or indigestion, it might be helpful to consult a gastroenterologist. They can evaluate if there's a digestive-related cause for your symptoms and provide reassurance or treatment as needed.

I'm trying to understand my latest ECG report. It mentions "Sinus Rhythm," a normal axis, and a short PR interval. Could this indicate any issues? Also, I'm on Thyronorm 25 mg for the last 3 years, and my TSH level is at 4.8. Does this all sound normal, or should I be concerned?

Thats normal no need to worry maintain healthy lifestyle

I've been feeling this needle-like pain in my left chest that started a couple of nights ago while I was asleep and it lasted about 10 minutes. Afterward, I started getting these intermittent pin-pricking pains on both sides of my chest. Now I'm even feeling some discomfort in my back and mild pains in my left shoulder and arms, which sometimes shift to the right side. Im already dealing with a breathing problem and recently noticed some chest tightness. I dont feel tired or dizzy, but I do have a stomach ulcer. I'm really worried this could be some kind of heart attack or angina. What should I do?

Neurologist opinion.
