Patient's question:
My aunt has coronary heart disease. Recently, a friend gave her some persimmons. I'd like to ask, can people with coronary heart disease eat persimmons?Doctor's answer:
Your aunt has coronary heart disease, and the warning sound indicates an issue with blood supply to the heart. The blood vessels supplying the heart are narrowed due to plaques. Persimmons are difficult to digest and are considered cold-natured foods, so it is not recommended to eat too many. It is advised to regularly follow up with the cardiology department of the hospital, undergo periodic electrocardiogram (ECG) tests, and use medications to stabilize blood supply to the heart under the guidance of a physician. Rest regularly and avoid excessive exercise.
