Question

A 40-year-old male has been diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma. The prognosis is not good, and he recently experienced abnormal blood pressure symptoms. Is a blood pressure of 70/45 low?

Answer

Abnormal blood pressure in the late stage can be treated effectively with Sheng Mai Drink, while also paying attention to diet. Consider a diet high in sodium and cholesterol. High-cholesterol foods, such as brain, liver, eggs, butter, fish eggs, and pork bones, should be consumed regularly in sufficient quantities. This can significantly increase blood cholesterol levels, enhance arterial tension, and raise blood pressure. Regular hydration and physical activity can increase blood volume, along with foods like longan meat, jujube, and red beans.
