Patient's question:
My mother-in-law has high blood pressure and often dislikes buying pig blood, except for cooking Mao Xue Wang with bean sprouts. Can people with high blood pressure eat pig blood?Doctor's answer:
Hypertensive patients can appropriately consume some pork blood because it has relatively high nutritional value, containing a lot of vitamins and protein. It also has the effect of promoting bowel movement, which can help clear out waste and toxins from the body. Hypertensive patients should consume it in moderation. The dietary principles for hypertensive patients should follow a low-fat, low-salt, and low-cholesterol diet, and it is important to control salt intake.
