View allI've been on Olmetrack 20 for about a year now, but it's pretty expensive for me. My blood pressure is reading 13084. Do you think I could switch to Olmighty 20 since it's more affordable? I'm 28 years old, 5'3", and weigh 70 kg. Would that have any implications on my health?
Both Olmetrack 20 and Olmighty 20 contain the same active ingredient, which is Olmesartan. Olmighty 20 is a more cost-effective option for you. You can switch to Olmighty 20 with the same dosage as Olmetrack 20 to help maintain your blood pressure at a healthy level.

I'm really into sports and focus on my diet, but I've been wondering about something. Does eating high carbs actually increase VLDL cholesterol levels? And if so, what kind of carbs are more responsible for this hike? I've been sticking to complex carbs like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes. Just want to make sure I'm on the right track. Can you shed some light on this?
High carbohydrate intake, especially simple carbohydrates, can lead to an increase in VLDL cholesterol levels. Simple carbohydrates, such as those found in sugary foods and drinks, can raise VLDL levels more significantly compared to complex carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes are a better choice as they have a lower impact on VLDL cholesterol levels. To help lower VLDL cholesterol, you can continue consuming complex carbs like brown rice, whole grains, and legumes in your diet.
