Can hypertensive patients definitely eat lamb?

Patient's question:

I have recently been experiencing headaches, and after a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said I have high blood pressure. Besides needing to pay more attention to rest, I also need to pay attention to dietary adjustments, and I need to take many antihypertensive drugs. I would like to know if, in terms of diet, can people with high blood pressure eat lamb?

Doctor's answer:

Hypertensive patients can appropriately consume lamb protein foods, mainly to control high-fat foods such as chicken and duck meat, fatty meats, and other foods. They should also purchase protein. Blood pressure should always be kept within 140 mmHg, but it is more ideal to always maintain at 135/80 mmHg. It is also important to always maintain a low-salt, low-fat, light, and easily digestible diet. Always stay optimistic and positive, prevent emotional anxiety and tension, pay attention not to frequently repeat blood pressure measurements, and do not stop taking medication arbitrarily.
