Patient's question:
My husband suffers from relatively severe hypertension. Today, he ate some lotus seeds, so I want to ask if people with hypertension can eat lotus seeds?Doctor's answer:
Hello, patients with hypertension can eat lotus seeds, but do not overdo it. Patients with hypertension should decide on antihypertensive medications based on their blood pressure levels, take them on time, and monitor the data regularly. It is recommended to engage in more activities and exercise, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and reduce the intake of greasy and spicy foods. Maintain a low-sodium, low-fat, and low-oil diet, avoid smoking and alcohol, have a regular schedule, and ensure sufficient deep sleep. Wishing you good health.
