Patient's question:
Your friend's grandfather has been suffering from high blood pressure and has been taking medication to control it. Is it effective to eat ginkgo nuts for high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
If you already have high blood pressure, eating ginkgo biloba should have no effect and is unnecessary. Moreover, eating raw ginkgo biloba may lead to symptoms of poisoning again. Therefore, it is recommended to follow a regular oral medication regimen for treatment. During medication, it is important to monitor blood pressure frequently and adjust the dosage of antihypertensive drugs based on blood pressure levels. In daily life, it is advisable to maintain a light diet and avoid greasy and overly salty foods.
