Eat balanced and regularlyavoiding sugar, but also excess starches, red meat or alcohol are thus crucial reflexes, especially if in addition to high blood pressureyou suffer from other often related pathologies such as diabetes orhypercholesterolemia.

Be careful, these foods are not recommended if you suffer from hypertension
Enemy No. 1 of hypertension, it is everywhere and in absolutely unreasonable quantities in industrial products (chips, pizzas, fast food, cakes, sauces, prepared dishes and soups…). Be sure to read the labels carefully to do not exceed 6g of salt per dayso as not to risk too much water retention.
A Excessive consumption (more than 10 glasses per week or 2 glasses per day) increases the risk of hypertension and the calories absorbed. Gold, being overweight is directly linked to the risk of hypertension. It is therefore a vicious circle that it is better to break by being reasonable.
Butter (especially cooked), industrial fats or fatty meats and fresh cream are strongly discouraged. At least, they should not be consumed regularly. On the contrary, we prefer vegetable oils, such as linseed.
This last one is too high in fat. Moreover, this also applies to charcuterie, but also smoked, breaded meat and fish and surimi which, as a bonus, contain a good dose of salt.
If they are daily recommended for the energy they provide, it is necessary consume them without excess, and favor the full versions. Finally, it is recommended to vary the pleasures by avoiding the eternal platter of pasta. Think for example of legumes, great sources of slow sugars.
GOOD too high in hidden sugars as well as salt and additives.

But not all fruits and vegetables are created equal when it comes to lowering blood pressure. Indeed, some of them have more important virtues in this area, for example garlic, avocado or even dark chocolate. Good too, the artichoke or celery, sweet potato and banana. Also think about broccoli, and on the protein side, bet on oily fish. Used as additives in dishes, in order to give them flavor and nutritional richnessseaweed or turmeric will be your allies.
