RE: What should we know about high blood pressure?

in #health7 years ago (edited)

Well, there are points that I agree with and others where I do not:

  1. In many cases, changes in lifestyle are enough to control blood pressure values, but in others, medications are definitely needed (And it's not a marketing issue, it's a proven fact)
  2. Agree that you consume vegetables and avoid sodas.
  3. I have no problem with the use of full milk as long as you do not have serious cholesterol or triglyceride problems.
  4. Do not fatten the products low or high in fat, fatten the calories. If you consume excessive amounts of a low fat product, of course you will gain weight, since the low fat one doesn't mean that it does not have calories. What happens is that people trust that a product is low in fat or light (it happens a lot with sodas) to consume it in excess thinking that it will not hurt.
  5. The body does not sense a lack of nutrition just because the person consumes a low-fat product. Malnutrition happens because the patient ingests a poor diet in carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
  6. You are right, the fat that contains the meat is enough for its preparation, you do not have to add additional oil.
    Thanks for your comment, I love hearing opinions and discussing...
