Proper Nutrition Under Hypertensive Disease

Probably, many of you are familiar with such a notion, as a healthy and proper food. However, there is a rather large percentage of people who are difficult to adjust their moral and volitional qualities, and eat foods that are beneficial to the health of the body. Why is this happening? Because many are not able to show goodwill and "force" themselves to give up all sorts of culinary temptations. And, perhaps, the main thing here is not the monetary component, but the mobilization of our willful opportunities: I must, I can.

And for a person who has a cardiovascular disease, proper nutrition is one of the key. Having hypertensive disease is especially important. The diet of hypertension should be fractional, modest, uninvigorated. The menu, abundantly saturated with food with a high content of calories, will lead to disruption in metabolic processes in many organs. And the vessels, not an exception. It is fraught with hypertension and atherosclerosis. In addition, there is a high probability of developing all kinds of obesity, which repeatedly increase the risk of cardiovascular disasters.

Hypertension is a serious reason to protect yourself from taking any, even the smallest amount of alcohol. Pay close attention to the fact, in addition to harm alcohol is also pure calories (100grams of vodka have 280 kilocalories in it).

It is strongly recommended to give preference exclusively to low-fat varieties of meat, fish, and only in a boiled form. Low-fat varieties of cottage cheese, cheeses, lactic products, are also able to make their positive contribution. Oats and buckwheat are the priority among porridges. Among the liquid dishes, the most optimal option will be vegetarian soups. On bakery products should also not be too hard, preferably not more than 150 grams per day. Vegetables, fruits, of course, should also be present in the nutritional diet.

Make a close focus on the sources of the following substances: potassium, calcium, magnesium. They are extremely useful in the treatment of hypertension, and their sources in the first place, is apricots, dried apricots. In addition, they are able to lower the blood pressure of a person.

High pressures lead to serious limitations in the use of salt. The maximum daily dose, for all foods used, should not exceed 3.5 grams per day. If it is difficult to immediately abandon the salty food - use spices, flavors.

The total volume of liquid consumed per day should not exceed the limit of two liters. Limit the use of water at night. Preferably give green tea or mineral water. But the consumption of strong tea, coffee, should be minimized, or completely eliminated, because they have an extremely negative impact on blood pressure, significantly increasing it. It is necessary to put taboos on sharp, salty snacks, pastries, fat meat and fish broths, all kinds of smoked foods, kidneys, liver, ice cream, cocoa. Butter and sour cream, it is more appropriate to replace vegetable fats.

To summarize, I want to note that the issue of nutrition in hypertensive patients should always be in one of the first places. Only a properly selected and well- balanced diet can afford to see real results in the treatment of this serious ailment. It is necessary to remember this always. Protect your health of the body and heart.
