As the most common cardiovascular disease, the development of hypertension is closely related to unhealthy dietary habits; scientific and reasonable dietary habits can ensure that hypertensive patients get enough nutrition on the one hand, and help stabilize blood pressure on the other. It can also help hypertensive patients stabilize their blood pressure and reduce the occurrence of adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Modern scientific research has confirmed that eating seven full meals can ensure nutritional intake and help control weight and keep the mind awake; too full and too hungry can increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and affect blood sugar and blood lipid levels. In addition, three meals should be reasonable, breakfast can be arranged between 6-8 points, lunch at about 12-13 points, dinner can be set at about 19-20 points, to prevent irregular diet led to gastrointestinal disorders. Low-salt, low-fat, low-calorie diet The amount of salt eaten daily for high blood pressure should be strictly controlled at 2-5 grams, about a small spoonful; where the amount of salt should also be subtracted from the amount of salt contained in soy sauce for cooking, 3 ml of soy sauce is equivalent to 1 gram of salt. Pickled products, such as pickled vegetables, curd, salted meat (eggs) contain high salt content, should be eaten as little as possible or not. In addition, people with hypertension are often obese, so they should avoid foods with high heat and fat content, such as cola, energy drinks, and fried foods. It is recommended to reduce the intake of red meat and consume fish as a protein supplement. On the one hand, fish protein is more easily absorbed, and on the other hand, fish contains a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, which are beneficial for softening blood vessels and improving their function. Modern research studies have also found that those who eat fish once a week have a significantly lower mortality rate from heart disease than those who do not eat fish. Eat fruits and vegetables Vegetables and fruits contain a large number of vitamins, such as vitamin C, vitamin B, etc., which are of great benefit to reduce vascular damage and protect cardiovascular; in addition, fruits and vegetables are rich in fiber, which can effectively prevent constipation. For this reason, you can eat a moderate amount of low-sugar fruit and vegetable foods, such as bitter melon, celery, bamboo shoots, bok choy, cabbage, winter melon, tomatoes, eggplant, bean sprouts, jellyfish, kelp, onions, etc. Control alcohol intake Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to an increase in blood pressure, so people with hypertension need to strictly control their alcohol intake. The American Heart Association recommends that men should not drink more than two glasses of alcohol per day, and women should not drink more than one glass per day. Foods high in potassium Foods rich in potassium enter the body can counteract the effect of sodium-induced pressure and vascular damage, so patients with cardiovascular disease can eat foods high in potassium in moderation, such as beans, mushrooms, black dates, almonds, walnuts, peanuts, potatoes, fish, etc.
