Health Question & Answer

Stress and nutrition are significant contributors to hypertension.. While it is not always possible to avoid stressful situations, you can determine your response to it.. By allowing yourself to become angry, you become more stressful.. Relaxation, slow, deep breathing is one way of comfortably resolving stress when you can't avoid it..

By controlling your sodium intake, you are making a major effort to keeping your pressure down.. Learn to read labels - processed foods and box mixes have excessively high sodium content.. Read the label on a package of raman noodles or those products that you simply add water to, then eat.. Processed sandwich meat has more sodium in one serving than normally recommended for a days intake..

Unless you are a confirmed vegan, fresh meats, fish and fowl are good in moderation, and learn to use herbs and alternate seasonings, but avoid salt substitutes.. Grilling, broiling and sauteing is good, and use light pan spray, rather than grease.. Don't try to eliminate totally foods that you enjoy, such as meat or deserts or the like, just use common sense and don't put yourself out on a limb so that you can't enjoy your food..

Add a slight amount, couple drops of lemon juice to fresh cooked veggies- wondeerful and different taste.. Many tout the advantages of fresh garlic (not the stuff you buy in a pill bottle)

also, avoid fried foods..
