1, wine
Drinking alcohol can increase the heart rate, vasoconstriction and blood pressure, and also promote the deposition of calcium salt and cholesterol on the blood vessel wall and accelerate arteriosclerosis. Drinking a lot of alcohol for a long time is more likely to induce arteriosclerosis and aggravate hypertension. Therefore, patients with hypertension should abstain from drinking.
2. Dog meat
Although there are many causes of hypertension, most of them belong to the nature of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity. Dog meat can warm kidney and help yang, which can aggravate the condition of hypertension with yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity. Other types of hypertension, such as kidney-yang deficiency, disturbance of deficiency of yang, accumulation of phlegm-fire and obstruction of collaterals by blood stasis, eating dog meat or inciting floating yang or aggravating phlegm-fire or helping fire to dry blood, are all unfavorable to the condition. Therefore, it is not edible.
3. Animal protein
Patients with hypertension should limit or prohibit the intake of animal protein (such as animal liver and eggs), because the harmful substances produced by protein metabolism can cause blood pressure fluctuation. Normal diet can choose high-quality protein with high cost, such as fish and milk. Some proteins (such as aminoethyl xanthate, tyrosine, etc.) have antihypertensive effect.
4, salty food
The main component of salt is sodium chloride, and sodium retention can increase extracellular fluid, cardiac output and blood pressure. Therefore, patients with hypertension should limit their salt intake.
5. Strong tea
Patients with hypertension should avoid drinking strong tea, especially strong black tea. Because the theophylline contained in black tea is the highest, it can cause brain excitement, anxiety, insomnia, palpitations and other discomfort, thus raising blood pressure. Drinking light green tea is beneficial to the treatment of hypertension.
6. Spicy food
Spicy and fine food can make the stool dry and difficult to discharge, which easily leads to constipation. When patients defecate, they will increase abdominal pressure and blood pressure, which will induce cerebral hemorrhage. Therefore, patients with hypertension are prohibited from spicy and fine food.
7. High-calorie food
High calorie foods (glucose, sucrose, chocolate, etc.) can induce obesity, and the incidence of hypertension in obese people is higher than that in normal weight people. Hypertensive patients are often complicated with overweight or obesity. Therefore, patients with this disease should limit high-calorie foods in their diet.
8. Meat
This kind of food is high in fat, although it is high in protein, but it is high in saturated fatty acid, which is easy to cause high blood lipid and induce coronary heart disease.
9, heavy taste biscuits
Like sweet potatoes and dried beans, it is better for patients with hypertension to eat less. In addition, because of the high sugar and salt content, biscuits with strong taste are still eaten less.
10, chicken soup
Chicken soup has high nutritional value, and drinking more chicken soup will increase cholesterol and blood pressure. Therefore, chicken soup can not be blindly used as a nutritional product for patients, especially those with hypertension, and it is not suitable to drink chicken soup. Otherwise, it will only further aggravate the condition and do harm to the body.
