Is peanut butter good for high blood pressure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Peanut butter has fiber and proteins which are healthy and few studies showed that it can reduce mean diastolic blood pressure. And as long as they don't contain hydrogenated fat, nut butters including peanut butter won't cause problems for your cholesterol levels too.

View allI've been having this back pain that shoots down to my hands and chest. I had a TMT done on 20th February 2022, and it came out negative. But I'm worried because I'm feeling the pain again today, and my doctor advised an ECG. If my TMT was normal, do I really need to get an ECG every single time this pain hits?
If you have already undergone a TMT which was normal, and you are experiencing chest pain again, it is still important to have an ECG done to check for any acute changes in your heart's electrical activity. It is not necessary to have an ECG done every time you have pain, but if the pain is severe or persistent, it is advisable to seek medical attention and follow your doctor's recommendations.

I'm really worried about my mom. Her heartbeat's been acting up and she's feeling a heavy sensation around her chest. About a month ago, her hemoglobin was really low at 6, and the doctor suggested 7 cycles of iron injections. She's already done five of those. The last four times, it took about 2 to 2.5 hours to finish each cycle, but the nurse did the fifth round in just an hour. Also, they usually fixed the cannula on the back of her hand, but during this last session, they put it on her wrist and told her to hold it. Do you think these changes could be why she's feeling chest heaviness and her heartbeat's speeding up? Can the quick iron injection cause these symptoms?

I'm really worried about a situation I'm facing right now. Lately, I've noticed that he can't even make it to 1015 steps without getting super out of breath. But oddly enough, he's able to sleep comfortably. Should I be concerned about this imbalance, and is there something specific I should be looking into or doing for him?
increase his exercice and increase foods with nutrition
