Which salt is better for high blood pressure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Try to avoid table salt specifically in raw form. Better to go for Himalayan salt or rock salt instead of it. That cutting down on sodium in your diet is the best way to maintain your BP? Even a small reduction in the sodium in your diet can improve blood pressure by about 5 to 6 mm Hg.

View allI'm a bit worried about some of the results from my 24-hour Holter monitor and other tests. My heart rate got as high as 130 bpm at 11 am and dropped to 38 bpm at 4 am, with an average of 96 bpm. They noted baseline sinus arrhythmia but no trachiarrhythmia runs, AV block, or significant ST changes. My echocardiography shows an EF of 68 percent, which they said is normal. My fasting glucose came back at 106 mgdl. Everything else like LFT, KFT, and TSH seems to be within normal limits. Should I be concerned about these numbers? What do they really mean for my heart health?
Based on your results, I recommend you continue to monitor your heart rate and rhythm. Since there are no significant abnormalities detected, no specific medication is required at this time. However, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet to support your heart health.

I've got some concerns about my latest ECG results. It mentioned something about abnormal R wave progression. Is that something to worry about or can it be considered normal? I've been feeling a bit out of breath when I climb about 23 stairs. What should I do about this? I'd really appreciate some guidance.

I'm trying to understand more about my recent test results. It mentioned something like mild mitral stenosis with trivial regurgitation and that my left atrium is dilated. Plus, there's something about the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve being mildly thickened, and the mitral orifice measuring 2.22 square centimeters. They also noted trivial mitral regurgitation with Doppler. What does all this mean for my heart health? Should I be worried? Any advice on what steps I should take next would be really helpful.
