Patients with hypertension can eat sea cucumber appropriately. Sea cucumber has a low cholesterol content and is a high protein, low fat and low cholesterol food, which has good nutritional value. If hypertensive patients have hyperuricemia or gouty arthritis, they should not eat sea cucumber, because sea cucumber contains more purines, which can easily cause elevated blood uric acid and even trigger gout attack, which is not good for patients. Patients with hypertension usually need a low-salt, low-fat diet, eat fresh vegetables and fruits every day, and eat foods rich in protein, such as fish, lean meat, low-fat milk, eggs and soy products.
