Is coffee good for high blood pressure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Research indicates that coffee may lead to short-term increases in blood pressure. However, no long-term associations with increases in blood pressure or risk of heart disease have been found in people who drink it regularly. Rather, coffee may promote heart health due to its high antioxidant content.

View allI'm noticing that my heart rate is going above 100-115 from time to time. My blood pressure is normal, but my hemoglobin level is 10.8. About a month ago, I had an ECG done, and it showed sinus tachycardia and IRBBB. But I'm still experiencing a heart rate over 100-115. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing it?
Based on your symptoms and previous ECG findings, you may benefit from taking a beta-blocker medication to help control your heart rate. I recommend you take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a starting dose of 25mg twice daily. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and improve your symptoms. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and monitoring.
