Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i heard about pomelos being good for high blood pressure , UTIs esp. in pregnant women. i also heard that Cranberry juice thins the blood...... this suggests to me that a life-long healthy diet will prevent health problems from starting. And drugs for each problem are derived from the foods / vitamins / minerals that the patient is actually avoiding. would you agree with my conclusion. I have no science or healthcare education or qualification.
