Patient's question:
I usually love eating pumpkin seeds, but I currently have high blood pressure. Is it good for high blood pressure to eat pumpkin seeds?Doctor's answer:
Hypertensive patients can appropriately consume a lot of pumpkin seeds. The benefits of pumpkin seeds are quite numerous because they contain fatty acids that can maintain good prostate function. Therefore, they can effectively prevent prostate diseases. They also contain pantothenic acid, which can alleviate static-type angina. In addition to a certain hypotensive effect, they cannot treat hypertension. Ultimately, hypertensive patients still need to control their blood pressure stably through medication.
