How to regulate hypertension?
1. Diet therapy
A diet rich in vitamins, cellulose, calcium, fat, cholesterol and salt; When the daily salt content is reduced to 4 ~ 5 grams, the systolic blood pressure can be reduced by 4 ~ 6 mm Hg on average. Pay attention to a light diet, supplement calcium and potassium, and eat more fruits and vegetables.
Quit smoking and limit drinking.
Nicotine (nicotine) in tobacco will excite the central nervous system and sympathetic nerve, accelerate the heart rate, and promote the adrenal gland to release a lot of hormones, which will increase blood pressure. Studies have proved that the systolic blood pressure will increase1025mmhg after smoking a cigarette.
3. Drug therapy
Use diuretics (such as dihydrocarburettor) to reduce sodium excretion and blood volume, or use P receptor blockers (such as propranolol) to reduce myocardial contractility, heart rate and cardiac output, thus achieving the purpose of lowering blood pressure. It can also be treated with two drugs at the same time, diuretic plus P receptor blocker, or use either of them and add another antihypertensive drug such as reserpine or methyldopa.
4. Drink less sugary drinks
5. Chinese medicine conditioning
