Diabetes patients themselves need to pay attention to a lot of food problems, if diabetes combined with hypertension, how to pay attention to dietary problems? Experts pointed out that under the premise of controlling the intake of calories, clinical symptoms such as dyspnea can be improved.
Experts suggest that we should promote the consumption of compound sugars, such as starch, standard flour, corn, millet, oats and other food with more plant fiber, so as to promote intestinal peristalsis and facilitate the excretion of cholesterol. Eat less glucose, fructose and sucrose. In the past, low protein diet was emphasized, but it is not necessary to strictly limit protein intake except those with chronic renal insufficiency. The daily protein intake of hypertension patients is 1 g / kg body weight.
Eat more potassium, calcium rich and low sodium food, such as potatoes, taro, eggplant, kelp, lettuce, wax gourd, watermelon, etc., because potassium salt can promote the excretion of cholesterol, increase vascular elasticity, diuretic effect, and improve myocardial contractility. Calcium rich, such as milk, yogurt, sesame paste, shrimp skin, green vegetables, etc., have a protective effect on cardiovascular. Choose foods rich in magnesium, such as green leaf vegetables, millet, buckwheat flour, beans and bean products. Magnesium salt can reduce blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
