#Toutiao Creation Challenge#The incidence of hypertension in middle-aged and elderly groups is very high, which is also a topic studied by many doctors at home and abroad and the difficulties they want to overcome. Many people start to avoid eating when they suffer from high bloo

Because only eating vegetarian food cannot prevent the occurrence of hypertension. Academician Chen Keji gave a vivid and interesting example. Those monks and sisters in the temple are all people who have been vegetarians for a long time, and some have even eaten for at least 14 years.

But some of them still suffer from hypertension, such as hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, because the formation of hypertension is also related to endogenous lipid metabolism disorders, so taking vegetarian food cannot stabilize blood pressure.

In addition to not being able to eat vegetarian food for a long time and eat less salt, patients with hypertension should also pay attention to eating less second-class fatty acids

1, Trans fatty acids

In life, people like to eat trans fatty acids hidden in cakes, hamburgers, fries and other foods, and many high-temperature and fried foods will contain trans fatty acids.

trans fatty acids are very harmful to the body. Since trans fatty acids can be preserved for a long time and have strong product stability, they will be added to food by many merchants. Eating too much food containing trans fatty acids will increase the content of cholesterol and in the blood, which can easily induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which is not conducive to blood pressure control.

2, saturated fatty acids

3 saturated fatty acids have certain benefits. Eating them in moderation can protect the liver, improve the body's immunity, and also provide energy to the body well.

If consumed in moderation in winter, it will also help keep warm and promote the absorption of calcium and iron by the body's bones. Although saturated fatty acids have so many benefits, they should not eat too much for patients with hypertension.

Because eating too much food containing saturated fatty acids will increase the cholesterol and triglyceride in the blood, making the blood vessels narrow, which will easily form arterial plaques, which will increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and will be very unfavorable to control blood pressure.

Most saturated fatty acids are found in pigs, beefs, lambs and other meats. Therefore, patients with hypertension should pay attention to controlling their consumption. Even normal people should pay attention to not exceeding 10 grams of saturated fatty acids they consume every day.

If you want to control blood pressure and protect blood vessel health, you still have to do these two things in your daily life:

1. Drink more water

Drink more water can dilute blood concentration, clear away garbage toxins in blood vessels, and play a role in unblocking blood vessels and lowering blood pressure. Therefore, it is best to ensure 1,800 ml of water per person per day.

If you don’t like drinking boiled water, you can also drink light tea. Green tea is very suitable for patients with hypertension, because the catechins in green tea can antioxidant, enhance blood vessel elasticity, and well unblock blood vessels.

2. Multi-exercise

3 Exercise is the easiest and most effective way to maintain health. With proper exercise, blood circulation can be improved, blood vessels can be kept unobstructed, blood concentration can be reduced, blood vessels can be maintained healthy, and obesity can be improved.

It is recommended to exercise more than four days a week, each exercise time is at least 30 minutes, and the exercise intensity does not need to be too large.
