With the increase in the average age of the population, in the last few decades have seen emergence of diseases that were once almost unthinkable, or even niche of the upper classes. Among these categories, there is hypertension, or high blood pressure. It is not difficult to keep it under control, but you have to strictly follow the rules everyday … Follow me and you’ll see.
First of all, one of the basic rules is essential to dramatically reduce the use of salt and all foods that are preserved with salt. So you need to banish from your diet olives, salami and thus all the sausages. Even the cheeses are considered among the foods not, while fresh ones like ricotta and mozzarella you can eat them safely.
Banned completely from the pantry, those foods are high in salt, such as anchovies, herring, and cod roe. But not preocuparti, because your body and your palate will fit within four settimene to the flavor of the food bland, and you can dress them with all the other spices, flavors rittrovando you forgot you.
I recommend extreme parsimony with sweets and sugary drinks and some fruits high in sugar such as bananas, grapes, figs, persimmon and prickly pears, also limits the intake of watermelon. To debunk is the thought of wine instead Deepening Dash Diet: If you are used to drinking a glass at lunch and one at dinner I’ll grant you, preferably red.
Other beverage that you should not assume it is also the coffee, if you really can not resist concedertene a cup every now and then, but tassattivamente decafeinato. With a bare-bones diet so you will ask yourself, what can I eat then?
Simple to everything except the salt. You can make up for this deficiency through the intake of fiber, such as fruits, vegetables and legumes. Then go ahead to the imagination, with pasta, rice, meat and fish.
However, remember that high blood pressure can not be fought only on the table, but also with the physical exercises. 20 minutes jogging or walking at a brisk pace each day, or 40-minute aerobic exercise, such as swimming, running or biking, you set in motion the whole cardiovascular system by lowering the blood pressure.
An extremely important thing for hypertension (and not only) is the tassattivo smoking ban. Even the smoke of a single cigarette, increases the heart rate and thus the pressure arterosa. Also remember that smoking causes other serious diseases, such as cancer, heart attack and stroke.
In conclusion, if you are having problems with high blood pressure, my last piece of advice is to refer to a serious and skilled doctor, who will examine your case and give you a specific treatment and .. following a proper diet and proper exercise.
