Are you suffering from HBP? These are the things you should know..
As a person with high blood pressure (hypertension), it's generally recommended to avoid foods high in sodium, saturated fats, and added sugars. Some foods to avoid or limit include:
- Processed and packaged foods (chips, canned soups, etc.)
- High-sodium condiments (soy sauce, ketchup)
- Fast food and fried foods
- Fatty cuts of red meat
- Full-fat dairy products
- Sugary beverages and excessive sweets
Instead, focus on a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy, while keeping sodium intake in check. It's important to consult a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian for personalized advice.
