Why you shouldn’t drink more water with high blood pressure

Hypertensive patients can not drink more water this statement is too absolute, hypertension combined with heart failure and kidney disease need to be based on the specific circumstances of the appropriate restrictions on drinking water, the rest of the hypertensive patients can drink more water in moderation, but do not recommend drinking a lot of water within a short period of time. Some hypertensive patients may be combined with heart failure or kidney failure, and drinking more water at this time will increase the burden on the heart and kidneys, so they should not drink more water. The daily water intake should be based on the patient’s specific condition and follow the doctor’s instructions. If hypertensive patients do not have cardiac insufficiency, renal insufficiency and other conditions, you can drink more water in moderation, it is recommended to drink a small amount of water more often, with boiled water and light tea is appropriate, generally 1500 ~ 2000mL of water a day. But don’t drink too much at one time, because if you drink a lot of water in a short period of time, it will cause the blood volume to increase, but will cause the blood pressure to rise. In short, hypertensive patients should drink water scientifically and reasonably, and should not blindly drink more or too restrictive drinking.
