Why limit salt?

Salt intake was positively correlated with hypertension, meaning the more salt a person ate, the higher their blood pressure level.

For every 1 gram increase in daily salt intake, the average high pressure rises by 2mmHg and the low pressure by 1.7mmhg.

The World Health Organization limits salt intake to 6 grams per person per day, which is not only salt, but also salt in salty condiments such as monosodium glutamate and soy sauce, and in foods.

In daily life, we can help control salt intake by limiting the salt spoon. We can also refer to the method that the amount of salt in a beer bottle cap is about 6 grams. We can also reduce the amount of salt by 1/3 ~ 1/2 on the original basis.

Nicotine in smoke excites the central nerve and sympathetic nerve, make the adrenal gland release a lot of catecholamines, make arteriole produces systole, cause blood pressure to rise thereby, a long-term and large quantity of smoke cigarette still can promote atheroma of the big artery, intima of arteriole thickens gradually, bring about arteriolosclerosis.

At the same time, due to the increased content of carbon monoxide hemoglobin in the blood of smokers, the oxygen content of the blood is reduced, making the intima of the artery hypoxia, the oxygen content of the lipid in the artery wall increases, accelerating the formation of atherosclerosis.

Therefore, people without hypertension can stop smoking to a certain extent to prevent the occurrence of hypertension, people with hypertension should quit smoking.

The Significance of blood pressure monitoring at home?

  1. The influence of white coat hypertension, mood, exercise, eating, smoking, drinking, and other factors on blood pressure can be excluded, reflect blood pressure objectively, and truly.
  2. Long-term monitoring of blood pressure can obtain more blood pressure data, which can actually reflect the changing rules of blood pressure throughout the day.
  3. To test the effect of drug treatment to a certain extent, help doctors to select drugs, adjust the dosage and time of medication, etc.
  4. To determine whether there is damage to target organs (organs vulnerable to hypertension).

If there is cardiac hypertrophy, fundus arterial vascular lesions, or changes in renal artery function, the difference between day and night is small.
