Would Caffeinated Coffee Helps For Suffering From Fluid Around The Heart?

Hi, Glad you are online. My 90-year-old father has fluid around the heart (according to his VA MD). He is going to start taking Lasix. Until then what might be helpful, as in no salami. Some veggies that are putatively helpful include celery, onions, asparagus, parsley. Would including some caffeinated coffee help? Thank you for your help.

Hi I read your query very carefully.

The caffeinated coffe doesn't help your father for his cardiac disease.

However if he is addicted to caffeine than you can give him some caffeinated drinks to help him.

Hope it was of help!
