Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Peanut butter, almond butter, and other nut butters, these creamy treats are fairly healthy. And as long as they don't contain hydrogenated fat, nut butters including peanut butter won't cause problems for your cholesterol levels.

I'm really concerned about my husband's ECG results. I've attached them for you to see. It shows sinus bradycardia and sinus arrhythmia. Could this be because he works out regularly? Do these results seem normal, or is there something we should be worried about?

Sinus bradycardia with sinus arrhythmia can be a normal finding in individuals, especially in those who are physically fit like your husband who regularly goes to the gym. It is usually not a cause for concern if there are no associated symptoms. However, it is important to monitor any symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath. If your husband is asymptomatic, no specific treatment is usually required. Just continue with regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor his heart health.

I recently went through a medical test for my insurance, and they noted something called tachycardia. I'm a bit worried and curiousdoes this mean that tachycardia is actually present in my report? How do I confirm if it's really something to be concerned about?

Tachycardia is a condition where your heart beats faster than normal. To confirm if tachycardia is present in your report, you can look for the heart rate measurement. If your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats per minute, then it is likely that tachycardia is present. If you have been diagnosed with tachycardia, medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) or Atenolol (25-100mg) may be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.
