Patient's question:
Father was carefully diagnosed with high blood pressure recently, but he particularly dislikes eating jackfruit, so he wanted to ask, can people with high blood pressure eat jackfruit?Doctor's answer:
Patients with hypertension can eat jackfruit, as it does not affect blood pressure levels. They can consume it in very small amounts but should avoid overeating. If blood sugar is too high, they should not eat it. Hypertensive patients should follow a low-sodium, low-fat diet, eat small meals frequently, and reduce the intake of greasy foods. The diet should be based on lightness, with an emphasis on fresh vegetables and fruits. Rest and avoid overexertion, emotional excitement, and ensure sufficient deep sleep. Moderate activity can help lower the body's immune response.
