Small habits that help fight hypertension
If nutrition is very important, we will also have to take into account some habits to adopt in your lifestyle that can be really useful.

Or, personally cook all our dishes, so as to be careful not to overdo the doses of the seasonings. And, finally, we should get used to feeling the genuine taste of fresh food. A sort of salt detox that can only do us good.

The first of these foods is the banana. Like so many other potassium-rich foods, such as potatoes, tomatoes, oranges, thresholds and almonds, this food helps regulate hypertension.

Similarly, celery also helps in the fight against high pressure. According to oriental medicine experts, in fact, when taken in large quantities, about four stems a day, it is really useful in fighting this disease.
