Patient's question:
My grandfather currently has high blood pressure. My grandfather measures his blood pressure every night and also takes blood pressure medication. I want to understand what elements are lacking in high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Hypertensive patients generally experience symptoms such as constipation or irritability, lacking in elements such as the B-complex vitamins and minerals. These two trace elements can normally maintain blood circulation in the human body, accelerate the excretion of metabolism, and allow local stagnation to be promptly expelled from the body. A deficiency in these two elements can lead to constipation. Green leafy vegetables, soybeans, fish, nuts, peanut butter, and yogurt, among others, contain magnesium.
