What to do with borderline high blood pressure

Critical hypertension is also called marginal hypertension, which mainly refers to high blood pressure but no obvious damage to the heart, spleen, kidneys and other organs. However, if it is not treated actively, it may develop into hypertensive disease. Therefore, patients must pay attention to active treatment. Then what kind of care and treatment methods should be paid attention to when suffering from critical hypertension? Let's take a detailed look now.

When many people suffer from borderline hypertension, they do not pay attention to it in time because the symptoms are not very obvious, which makes the condition more serious. Therefore, for the sake of their own health, everyone must pay attention to their physical health and prevent hypertension.

Non-drug treatment mainly includes the following aspects: (1) Weight control. It is reported that about 80% of people with borderline hypertension can reduce their blood pressure to normal by losing weight. (2) Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption. Smoking and drinking are harmful to the treatment of borderline hypertension. Therefore, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption are important measures to control the development of borderline hypertension. (3) Limit salt and sugar intake. Most people with borderline hypertension can control their blood pressure by limiting salt and sugar intake. It is generally believed that the daily salt intake should be 4-6 grams; the intake of high-sugar foods should be limited. (4) Increase calcium and potassium intake. Eating more foods rich in calcium (such as dried shrimp, milk, fish, beans, etc.) and potassium (such as mushrooms, vegetables, green leafy vegetables, beans, oranges, bananas, etc.) can help balance and lower blood pressure. (5) Keep exercising. Physical exercise is an effective way to lower blood pressure for people with borderline hypertension. People with borderline hypertension should keep doing appropriate exercise for a long time, such as jogging, brisk walking, gymnastics, Tai Chi, etc. (6) Maintaining psychological balance can prevent emotional disorders and help high blood pressure return to normal.

Although hypertension is actually a common disease, especially now that people's living conditions have improved and they don't pay much attention to their diet, it is easy for these diseases to come to them. Therefore, I hope that after the above introduction, everyone can pay attention to it and actively treat and prevent it.
