Blood pressure is directly related to the diet followed.
People with hypertension need to be especially careful when choosing a diet, and exclude some foods, writes Express.
At high pressure, you should try to exclude salt from the diet, since it contains sodium chloride, which is retained in the vessels. The main sources of salt are foods such as bread and rolls; pizza and sandwiches; cold meats; soups and processed meats.
In addition, sugar should be avoided as it disrupts metabolism and constricts blood vessels. So, fruit juices should be removed from the menu; sports drinks; protein bars; syrups.
Also, do not drink alcohol, because in large quantities it sharply increases blood pressure, writes the weekly magazine “Profile”.
