Patient's question:
My husband got high blood pressure after a thorough examination last month and has been undergoing treatment. Recently, he has been resting at home. My friend told me that there are some things that people with high blood pressure shouldn't eat randomly. My husband loves eating tomatoes. Can people with high blood pressure eat raw tomatoes?Doctor's answer:
According to your current condition, it is okay to eat tomatoes, as they contain a relatively high amount of vitamin E and have low sugar content. Try to consume more fresh fruits and vegetables, which can help in controlling high blood pressure. Pay attention to moderate physical exercise and regularly reduce your weight. Avoid increasing the intake of greasy foods. Do not eat foods that are high in fat, such as fatty meat and animal liver, etc.
