Treating High Blood Pressure: Tips For Diet Discipline
Ashish Jain
Food is your enjoyment. Food is your suffering. Food is your
bondage. Food is your liberation.
Well, the above statements may look a bit confusing to you at
first. But if you carefully analyze and understand them, you
will realize the truth beneath.
Your dietary discipline plays an important role in controlling
high blood pressure. Apart from the food, the timings of the
food are also important for you. Food discipline is part of
your life now. You need to formulate a mean plan, in
consultation with your dietitian.
Here are some tips that will help you form a healthy diet chart
as per your blood pressure condition.
1. The best for you is to depend upon salads, green vegetables
and seasonal fruits. Tomatoes are reported to be very effective
in controlling high blood pressure.
2. Eat food that is low in cholesterol and fat. Instead of
depending upon spices heavily, use herbs as well. You need to
depend upon vegetarian food, even though there is no bar on
light non-vegetarian food like fish which has high nutritional
value.
3. Cereals are no bar for blood pressure patients, but switch
over to sprouted ones. They are easy to digest and rich in the
fiber content. This is important as it helps you stay away from
constipation.
The blood pressure patients should never suffer from
constipation. Proper digestion of your eats is the important
criterion. Impurities within the system means impurities within
the blood. Anything that hinders the free flow of blood in the
arteries and veins is going to cause you problems of blood
pressure.
4. Make potassium a must part of your diet. To manage blood
pressure you need to have appropriate level of potassium in
your food. Include lots of fruits in your diet for this.
5. There are many vegetables which are known blood-purifiers.
Carrot is one such food which helps you monitor your blood
pressure level.
6. Regular consumption of honey early in the morning on empty
stomach, with a little bit of lime juice added to it is good
for the blood pressure patients.
7. And last but not the least, pick the food items that are low
in salt and sodium. Most of the Americans eat too much of the
salt than required. So, talk to your doctor and learn the ways
of cutting salt in your food.
