Antihypertensive medication and lifestyle adjustment phase matching

Hypertension and life style have a certain relationship. It has been proved too much salt, obese individuals more susceptible to hypertension, therefore had hypertension in addition to medication, also should adjust the way of life which adopts the non drug treatment.

Non medicine treatment for hypertension include weight loss, changes in dietary structure, dietary restriction and exercise four aspects. First of all, overweight and obesity are high blood pressure risk factors, to judge their own weight is normal or not according to the following formula: standard weight ( kg ) = height ( CM ) -105. Such as height 170 cm standard weight is 65 kilograms, if their weight in standard weight less than ± 10%, for normal weight, more than 10% for overweight, more than 20% for obesity. Such patients should reduce weight, the specific method is exercise, food restriction.

Secondly, to change the diet: eating too much salt, can make blood pressure elevatory, should therefore be less salt, the daily salt 5-6 grams is appropriate; eating salt is too small, can cause hypertension, should eat more vegetables, fruit, low calcium supplementation of potassium salt; also can make blood pressure elevatory, edible fungus, mushrooms, milk, supplement calcium salt; eating too much fat is associated with elevated blood pressure, therefore should reduce the intake of fat.

Third: limit alcohol drinkers had no effect on blood pressure, but large amounts of alcohol will make blood pressure elevatory, therefore hypertension patients the best not to drink or drink. Fourth to strengthen the physical exercise: some hypertensive patients often ask: after exercise will make blood pressure elevatory? Actually exercise can cure hypertension, endurance training and aerobic exercise such as walking, running, cycling, swimming, skiing and other can buck, but weight lifting hypotensive effect is not obvious. Therefore, exercise in hypertensive patients is useful. But the movement should pay attention to gradually increase the amount of exercise. The blood pressure of more than 220 / 110 mm Hg, complicating aortic dissecting aneurysm or acute cerebral vascular disease patients contraindications for exercise.

By adopting the method can make the mild hypertension ( diastolic blood pressure below 105 mm Hg ) in patients with blood pressure decline to some extent, can cause severe hypertension antihypertensive drugs in reducing the amount and type of satisfactory antihypertensive effect.
