Foods you should avoid if you have high blood pressure






Chinese takeaway
For many people, Chinese takeout has become a favorite. This is undoubtedly because we live such fast-paced lives, and in such a society, we barely have time to prepare a healthy meal every day. That’s why we are quick to grab the opportunity when we can get budget-friendly options and quick meals such as Chinese takeaway. Unfortunately, these Chinese takeaway meals contain large amounts of oil and sodium. This would explain why when you look at a stir-fried vegetable from a Chinese restaurant, you’ll notice that it’s quite glossy. Chinese takeaways are also full of canned sauces that are high in sodium and other ingredients that put you at risk of developing hypertension.

Frozen pizzas
People find frozen pizza a great and quick solution when they can’t cook their lunch or when they are too lazy to have something to eat. Just pop them in the oven for a few minutes and let the cheese start to melt. Also, let the dough get crispy and golden in color. That being said, you will need a lot of salt to preserve the frozen pizza. As you know, such sodium content increases your blood pressure and makes you more prone to various heart diseases.
