Nettle should not be used in people who are allergic to it, as well as in patients who should take less fluids (e.g. in severe heart disease). Nettle may increase the effect of drugs that lower blood pressure. In the case of elderly people with a weak heart, the possible use of nettle juice should be consulted with a doctor. Independently you should not introduce juice into the diet. We wrote more about the indications and contraindications for the use of nettle in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/substancje/pokrzywa-zwyczajna I encourage you to familiarize yourself with additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/nadcisnienie https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/problemy-z-sercem https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/przewlekla-obturacyjna-choroba-pluc-pochp
