Hypertension: Sauerkraut

Sauerkraut is a useful vegetable that has low calorie content and can be used in addition to meat dishes. On the other hand, it should be noted that about half a cup of Sauerkraut contains more than 460 milligrams of sodium. This amount of sodium is a serious risk to patients with high blood pressure.
Hypertension: French fries

This food has a lot of fat. Three bacon pieces contain about 4.5 grams of fat and 270 milligrams of salt. If you are eager to eat this food, try to use the less fatty ones like turkey bacon.
Hypertension: Doughnut

Donuts are very sweet and delicious. But if you want to avoid high blood pressure, you have to give up donuts. Each donut contains at least 300 calories and contains simple carbohydrates (which quickly become sugar) and saturated fats. This kind of foods will immediately increase your blood pressure.
