I've got high cholesterol and I'm wondering if having 1kg of milk daily is okay or if I should cut back. Can you suggest how much milk would be beneficial for my condition?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For high cholesterol, consuming 1kg of milk per day may not be the best approach as it is high in saturated fats which can contribute to elevated cholesterol levels. It is recommended to limit saturated fats in the diet. Instead, focus on a balanced diet that includes low-fat dairy products in moderation. A more suitable option for managing cholesterol levels would be to incorporate plant-based alternatives such as almond milk or soy milk which are lower in saturated fats. Additionally, including foods rich in soluble fiber such as oats, fruits, and vegetables can help lower cholesterol levels. There is no specific dosage of milk recommended for managing cholesterol, but it is advisable to consult with a dietitian for personalized dietary recommendations based on individual health needs.

View allWhat if my heart rate is naturally between 90 and 110? I haven't had any problems so far, but I'm just wondering if there's any reason to be worried.
A resting heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is considered normal for adults. A heart rate of 90 to 110 beats per minute can be normal for some individuals, especially if you are physically active or under stress. However, if you are experiencing no symptoms and have no underlying health conditions, this heart rate range may not be a cause for concern. It is always best to consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized assessment.

I'm wondering if you can help me out. I was stretching my neck and suddenly felt a squeezing sensation in my upper chest. Now, I'm noticing a bit of pain in my chest whenever I stretch or do activities that involve my chest. My breathing seems fine, though. Should I be concerned about this chest pain, or is it something that might go away on its own? Looking forward to your advice.
