I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Which things interact poorly with high blood pressure medication?NEW!

Green tea
grapefruit juice
mineral water

See the answer

grapefruit juice

A compound in grapefruit juice called furanocoumarins inhibits the activity of enzymes in the body that break down blood pressure medications. As a result, the drug’s components remain in the body longer than usual, which can make the medication work too strongly and pose a risk of blood pressure dropping too much.

thin the blood

The compound called alkylpyrazine contained in barley tea is also what creates its toasty aroma. Barley tea is often consumed in summer because it allows you to replenish minerals lost through sweating. When you sweat, you lose body fluids along with minerals, which can make your blood thicker, so barley tea is especially indispensable in summer.
