For most patients with hypertension, if blood pressure continues to rise, it may lead to the damage of blood vessels in the body, and then induce various complications, which is very harmful to health.
Therefore, many patients attach great importance to the regulation of blood pressure in their lives. For example, some hypertensive patients say that eating durian every day will gradually lower their blood pressure. Is it true?/You don't say.
Hypertensive patients eat durian every day, will it lower their blood pressure?
Durian, as the "king of fruits", has extremely high nutritional value. Many patients with hypertension think it can lower blood pressure, and they often eat it in large quantities.
This is mainly related to the rich potassium and calcium in durian. Regular consumption will supplement the potassium needed by the human body. After these potassium elements enter the body, they can improve the problem of sodium and water retention in the body to a certain extent, thus affecting the blood pressure level.
Although eating durian helps to lower blood pressure, you can't eat more because of its high sugar content and calories. If you eat it regularly, it may cause hyperglycemia. Therefore, it is best for patients to eat in moderation.
Reminder: If you want to lower your blood pressure slowly, try to eat these two foods as little as possible in your life.
Salted vegetables
For patients with hypertension, it is better to eat pickles as little as possible if you want to stabilize blood pressure slowly. As we all know, a large amount of sodium salt will be put into kimchi during the production process, resulting in a very high sodium ion content. If eaten in large quantities, sodium ions in the body will exceed the standard, which will not only damage blood vessels, but also cause abnormal blood pressure. In addition, excessive intake of sodium ions can easily lead to water and sodium retention, which is extremely harmful to health.
nut
In daily life, many people eat many nuts as snacks, the most common ones are pistachios and melon seeds. This kind of food tastes very good, and of course it is also extremely rich in oil. If you take too much, it will easily cause dyslipidemia, make the blood more viscous, and then affect the blood pressure level in the body. If there are hypertensive patients at home, remember to tell them to eat less nuts and snacks.
Then, if blood pressure can't be controlled, what harm will it do to the body if it continues to rise?
After blood pressure rises, patients will feel headache and fatigue.
Hypertension can easily lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke and myocardial infarction.
If the blood pressure is out of control, it may lead to renal arteriole sclerosis, and in severe cases uremia will occur.
In addition, there will be cerebral hemorrhage, heart failure, dementia and so on, which is very harmful to health.
If you want to let your blood pressure drop slowly, you can do the following two little things at any time.
The first thing: supplement the right amount of nutrition
As we all know, hypertension is a very common chronic disease in life, and the causes of hypertension are mostly related to diet. After finding high blood pressure, you can adjust it by changing your diet. It is very helpful for stabilizing blood pressure and maintaining blood vessels.
Awakening the activity of cells, thus relieving the pressure of blood vessels, not only helps to regulate blood pressure, but also slows down the aging of arteries and maintains the elasticity of blood vessels. Prevent the occurrence of vascular diseases; Diluting blood viscosity, thus reducing the pressure on blood vessels, is very beneficial to the stability of blood pressure.
Second: do more aerobic exercise.
Low-intensity aerobic exercise, such as jogging, square dancing, Tai Ji Chuan, etc., can relieve blood pressure very well, so that blood pressure can be reduced slowly. This kind of exercise doesn't need to be done every day, just 3-5 times a week for more than half an hour each time. Long-term persistence not only helps to stabilize blood pressure, but also improves self-immunity, which is very helpful to the body.
