Diet to Lower High Blood Pressure

There are some principles to be followed to avoid getting hypertension. They are mentioned below.

The obese person has to look after their obesity. For that they need 20 Kcal per Kg body weight. Protein in the form of dals, legumes and sprouts can be taken in normal quantity. Normal savings of chapati or breads, pasta, rice and other cereals are also allowed. Fat intake is best to avoid. This include ghee, butter, cream, dairy products, margarine etc. animal products like red meat and eggs also contain high cholesterol and hence to be restricted.

It is thought that fish and fish oils are little beneficial to hypertensive. This is probably because that contains n-3 fatty acids which controls hyperlipidemia and reduces the incidences of blood coagulations and hence prevents the blood clotting or an infarct in the heart.

SRD (Salt restricted diet) is first and foremost. This is because the sodium is osmogenic meaning it draws the water from the surrounding tissues in the body and hence increases the volume of the blood causing hypertension. One should avoid non-vegetarian diet as per Ayurvedic science. This increases the Pitta Dosha and also the Vata to some extent. Smoking and alcohol shoots up blood pressure and hence to be avoided.

Include salads and roughage i.e. fiber into your dish as it calms down the mood and also regulates the bowel movements preventing constipation. Fibers are considered to bind themselves to the cholesterol and hence remove them from the body into the feces.

One has to include calcium intake as it tones up the muscles of the heart and giving the strength to pump the blood to the entire body.

The groundnut oil is considered to be beneficial compare to all other oils. It has the near perfect ratio of poly and mono unsaturated fatty acids, which is good for maintaining cardiovascular health.

Such fruits as banana, guava and apples are to be included. Cereals and pulses are to be reduced from the diet. Coriander leaves, carrots and aamla (Indian gooseberry) is really beneficial.
