Regarding hypertensive patients, how should they eat? The diet of hypertensive patients should be "one low and two high". One low is low sodium; The second highest is high potassium and high calcium. The so-called low sodium means that patients with high blood pressure should eat as much as possible and control salt, especially sodium salt. So what do we do?
First, it is best not to put more than 1 gram of salt in the dishes made at each meal.
The second point is to pay attention to some invisible salt, such as soy sauce, pickles, squeezed vegetables, snow red, bean paste, and even ham sausage, sausage, etc., these foods or condiments have a lot of invisible salt, which belongs to high-sodium foods. While limiting salt, it is necessary to appropriately increase the potassium ions that have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system. So where do potassium ions come from? Some potassium ions come from the green vegetables and fruits we eat, and a considerable part of potassium ions come from the fungi we eat daily, and it is best to have a dish on the table every day is fungi. Then eat one or two fruits a day, in the case of low blood sugar, you can appropriately choose bananas, watermelons and other fruits rich in potassium ions, which is more helpful for supplementing potassium ions.
Third, many friends with high blood pressure eat very low calcium in the food they eat while eating a high-sodium diet, which is not conducive to the control of hypertension. Therefore, hypertensive patients should pay attention to ensuring a certain amount of milk intake every day to provide a relatively rich source of calcium for hypertensive patients. At the same time, pay attention to the intake of soy products, etc., can also supplement calcium, and bask in the sun every day to supplement vitamin D, which will help calcium absorption.
Patients with high blood pressure should pay attention to weight control, coupled with relaxed mood, appropriate exercise, regular life, sleep to ensure well, these comprehensive measures constitute a good lifestyle, combined with the "one low two high" diet principle, can control hypertension to a more ideal state through non-drug means.
