Does lemon lower BP?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It doesn't lower BP but Lemon contains high amounts of Vitamin C, which acts as an anti-oxidant, removing free radicals from the body.

It could be because of various reasons like anxiety, GERD, Muscle strain or Heart diseases

I've noticed my heart rate usually stays between 80 to 92. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal? Just want to know if there's any concern with my heart.
Hi, Heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is considered normal. A heart rate of 80 to 92 falls within this range and is generally not a cause for concern. However, if you are experiencing any other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fainting, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I've been feeling pretty anxious about my heart health lately. A while back, I did an ECG, echo, chest X-ray twice, and a TMT, and it was like 8 months ago. My BP is usually around 150, and my LDL is 138. I got a blood test, and it was normal. I'm on the heavier side but don't smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart issues. Still, I get these short, sharp pains in my left chest, like they disappear in seconds, and sometimes there's this bubbling or vibrating sensation there too. Plus, there are moments when my left chest and bicep feel like they're pounding, just for a few seconds. Recently, when I'm walking, it feels like I'm wobbling or floating, and my legs and hands feel lighter. The doctor said not to worry and just keep my BP and LDL in check, but I'm still worried. What should I do?
"Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to focus on controlling your blood pressure and LDL levels to reduce the risk of heart issues. In addition to lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, you may benefit from medication to manage your blood pressure and cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a medication like Atorvastatin (10mg) to lower your LDL levels and Amlodipine (5mg) to help control your blood pressure. It is important to take these medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up regularly for monitoring and adjustments if needed."
