Why to avoid ginger:
In moderate doses, ginger can promote good circulation, but excessive consumption may interfere with heart medications such as beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or antiarrhythmic drugs. Some studies suggest that large doses of ginger may cause irregular heartbeat, blood pressure fluctuations, or heart palpitations.
Better alternatives:
Use garlic or omega-3 fatty acids (found in salmon, flaxseed oil, or walnuts), which help lower cholesterol and reduce inflammation safely.
Prioritize a heart-healthy diet low in sodium and rich in fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats.
Always check with a cardiologist before using any herbal remedies.
