Dietary methods for hypertension:
1. sangcan
Diet arrangements should be less and more meals to avoid overeating; Patients with hypertension are often obese and must eat low-calorie food. The total heat should be controlled at about 8.36 megajoules per day. Daily staple food150-250g, with animal protein and plant protein accounting for 50% and 50% respectively. Hypertensive patients without nephropathy or gout can eat more soybeans, peanuts, black fungus or tremella and fruits. Dinner should be light and light, too much greasy food can induce stroke. Edible oil should be vegetable oil containing vitamin E and linoleic acid; There is no candy. Eat more high-cellulose foods, such as bamboo shoots, green vegetables, Chinese cabbage, wax gourd, tomato, eggplant, bean sprouts, jellyfish, kelp, onions, and a small amount of fish, shrimp, poultry meat, skim milk powder, egg white and so on.
2. Low salt
The amount of salt per person per day should be strictly controlled at 2-5 grams, that is, about one spoonful. The amount of salt should also be subtracted from the sodium contained in the boiled soy sauce. 3 ml of soy sauce is equivalent to 1 g of salt. Salted vegetables (sauces), fermented bean curd, bacon (eggs), pickled products, clam shells, dried shrimps, preserved eggs, chrysanthemums, grass heads, water spinach and other vegetables are all high in sodium, so we should try to eat less or not.
3. High potassium
Foods rich in potassium can resist sodium-induced hypertension and vascular injury, and can often "show their faces" in recipes. This kind of food includes beans, mushrooms, black dates, almonds, walnuts, peanuts, potatoes, bamboo shoots, lean meat, fish and poultry, root vegetables such as amaranth, rape and green onions, and fruits such as bananas, dates, peaches and oranges. Fish No matter what kind of hypertension patients, fish is the first choice, because epidemiological survey found that people who eat fish once a week have significantly lower heart disease mortality than those who don't eat fish.
5. Fruits and vegetables
The human body needs B vitamins and vitamin C every day, and it can be satisfied by eating more fresh vegetables and fruits. Some people argue that eating 1-2 apples a day is good for health, and fruits can also supplement calcium, potassium, iron and magnesium.
Calcium supplement
Some people let hypertensive patients take 1 g calcium every day, and after 8 weeks, they found that their blood pressure dropped. Therefore, we should eat more foods rich in calcium, such as soybeans, sunflower seeds, walnuts, milk, peanuts, fish and shrimp, red dates, fresh potherb mustard, garlic sprouts, seaweed and so on.
7. Iron supplementation
It is found that the plasma iron in elderly hypertensive patients is lower than normal, so eating more iron-rich foods, such as peas and fungus, can not only lower blood pressure, but also prevent anemia in the elderly.
drink water
Natural mineral water contains essential trace elements such as lithium, strontium, zinc, selenium and iodine. After boiling, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc beneficial to human body will be obviously reduced due to precipitation, so it is suitable for drinking raw water that meets the standard. Tea contains tea polyphenols, and the content of green tea is higher than that of black tea. It can prevent the oxidation of vitamin C, help the utilization of vitamin C in the body and eliminate harmful chromium ions. In addition, it also contains trace elements such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc and fluorine. Therefore, brewing 4-6 grams of tea every day (equivalent to 2-3 cups of tea bags) is beneficial to the human body for a long time.
The above dietary principles will be beneficial to health if patients with hypertension can implement and persevere.
9. Scientific diet controls blood pressure.
Although essential hypertension cannot be cured, it can be effectively controlled. A reasonable diet helps to keep blood pressure stable. A reasonable diet refers to a diet with high cellulose, low salt and low fat, and should eat more fruits, vegetables and grains.
First of all, you can use salt-free condiments to make food more delicious and eat less processed foods, because these foods contain more sodium and salt.
Secondly, caffeine contained in some drinks such as cola can raise blood pressure for a period of time, while drinking a small amount of red wine every day, such as a glass a day, can lower blood pressure, but excessive drinking will aggravate high blood pressure.
In addition, the researchers found that vitamins and trace elements also help to lower blood pressure. I suggest you eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as potassium in bananas, which will help lower blood pressure. Studies have also proved that daily intake of 800 mg of calcium and 300 mg of magnesium is beneficial to the treatment of hypertension. Many kinds of rapeseed, nuts, soybeans, peas and dark vegetables are rich in calcium and magnesium.
