What is the Best Diet for High Blood Pressure?
One of the best ways to combat high blood pressure is by eating a healthy, balanced diet. This doesn’t mean you have to completely give up all of your favourite treats, but to ensure you don’t develop further complications it’s best to try to eat them in moderation.
Diet Tips for High Blood Pressure
- Eat a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables
- Swap your dairy for low-fat versions
- Avoid saturated fats
- Eat foods rich in potassium like bananas
- Reduce sodium and salt intake
- Eat fewer processed foods (they’re big sodium culprits)
- Limit alcohol to 1-2 drinks per day
- Drink less caffeine
How to Successfully Diet
Diets are never easy, but there are ways to help you achieve your diet goals. Try easing into it at first so that you’re not making massive changes that will be hard to keep up with. Even little changes can have a massive impact on your blood pressure and health.
Many people use a food diary or an app to track their foods. By seeing what you’re eating and drinking, you can make conscious choices about your diet each day. Also check the food labels whenever you’re shopping so you know what is in the food you’re buying. If you aren’t buying fatty, processed, or high sodium products, then you can’t eat them once you get home!
Medication for High Blood Pressure
Sometimes diet isn’t enough, though. It is not uncommon for people to take medications alongside their healthy diets to control blood pressure. Some of these medications include Furosemide Tablets, Co-Diovan Tablets, and Nifedipine Tablets.
- Furosemide Tablets: A diuretic that treats high blood pressure as well as prevents your body from absorbing too much salt
- Co-Diovan Tablets: A medication that lowers blood pressure by reducing stress in blood vessels and in the muscles around the arterial walls.
- Nifedipine Tablets: Used to treat high blood pressure and can help prevent strokes and heart attacks.
