I believe that many people know about hypertension. Although it has no obvious symptoms in the early stage, sometimes dizziness and palpitations may occur, but in the long run, it will pose a threat to the brain and heart. The diagnostic index of hypertension is based on the systemic arterial blood pressure systolic blood pressure≥140mmHg, diastolic blood pressure≥90mmHg as the boundary. If these two values are too high, you should pay attention to your daily eating habits. At least these six points should be kept in mind.
1. Stay away from alcohol
Many hypertensive patients have the habit of drinking, but related studies have shown that excessive alcoholism is actually an important cause of hypertension. The higher the alcohol consumption, the faster the blood pressure rises in patients, and alcohol also affects the therapeutic effect of antihypertensive drugs, so it is essential for hypertensive patients to abstain from alcohol.
2. Light diet
The diet of hypertensive patients requires low salt because the salt is sodium chloride. If too much salt is ingested in the body, sodium chloride will constrict blood vessels through an osmotic effect, leading to increased blood pressure. Some elements in salt (such as iodine) are indispensable to the human body, so you should eat a certain amount of salt in your usual diet, but you must be careful not to overdo it, and to eat lightly.
3. Control sugar intake
Speaking of the source of sugar, the fruits that are often eaten in daily life contain sugar. Therefore, sugar is also an indispensable part of life. But for hypertensive patients, sugar intake should be controlled. Because sweets will affect the blood glucose concentration in the patient's body, excessive intake of sugar may induce diabetes.
4. Eat the right fruits and vegetables
Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which have a good effect on preventing high blood pressure and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. But for hypertensive patients, suitable fruits and vegetables are beneficial to the body. For example, black fungus, celery, etc. can reduce blood pressure by improving blood vessels, while bananas, oranges, and many other fruits can supplement the elements and are beneficial to the health of patients.
5. Dinner should be eaten less
For hypertensive patients, not only should the diet be kept light, but dinner should also be reduced. First, overeating at night will increase the burden on one's intestines and affect sleep. Second, prevent eating too much to increase blood concentration, which is not conducive to keeping blood pressure constant. Therefore, it is better to eat less at night and some fresh fruits.
6. Do not drink tonics
Some hypertensive patients feel very anxious after getting sick, and always feel that their body is too weak and they need to be supplemented. However, it is best for patients not to eat tonics indiscriminately, because there are many taboos in the diet of hypertensive patients. Blindly tonic may be counterproductive and should be cited under the supervision of a doctor.
In short, people suffering from high blood pressure should always pay attention to their own diet, develop a good habit of light diet, do not think that taking medicine is enough, and adjusting in many ways is the right approach.
