What should you eat if you have high blood pressure? Save these 4 suggestions

Hypertension has become one of the most common chronic diseases.

According to the China Hypertension Survey (2012-2015), the crude prevalence of hypertension among Chinese residents aged ≥18 years was 27.9%; the prevalence of hypertension among young people (18-35 years old) was 5.2%, and that among residents aged ≥75 years was 59.8%.

In general, the number of adults aged 18 and above suffering from the disease in my country has reached 245 million. In other words, one in every six people suffers from hypertension.

What is more terrifying than hypertension is its complications. Among the hypertensive patients who visited hospitals in my country, 26.7% had diabetes, 20.1% had coronary heart disease, 12.7% had a history of cerebrovascular events, 10.6% had chronic kidney disease, 7.1% had peripheral vascular disease, and 6.1% had a history of heart failure.

For many patients, high blood pressure is usually asymptomatic. Many people do not even know they have high blood pressure. Most people only know they have high blood pressure when they have a heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure and need dialysis. Therefore, high blood pressure is also called the "silent health killer."

Controlling high blood pressure is closely related to daily diet. So what should patients with high blood pressure eat on a daily basis to prevent their blood pressure from rising?
