Can people with high blood pressure drink sugar water?

Patient's question:

I am 33 years old this year, but my high blood pressure is quite severe. This time during my period, I would like to drink a little brown sugar water, so I want to ask if people with high blood pressure can drink sugar water?

Doctor's answer:

If high blood pressure is relatively severe, you can drink brown sugar water during your menstrual period. Brown sugar water will never cause blood pressure to rise. When you have diabetes, you cannot drink brown sugar water, as it may easily alleviate diabetes symptoms after consumption. When you have high blood pressure, you need to pay attention not to eat too greasy meat, and avoid foods high in fat and protein. You need to adhere to a low-salt, low-fat diet.
