1, obesity can reduce systolic blood pressure by 5-20 mm Hg by losing weight 10 kg;
2. Increase physical activity. Regular aerobic exercise can reduce systolic blood pressure by 5- 15mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 5- 10mmHg.
Exercise and weight control are one of the non-drug treatments for hypertension, mainly including improving lifestyle and eliminating behaviors and habits harmful to physical and mental health, thus reducing the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. Specifically, it includes: losing weight, eating reasonably, increasing physical activity and reducing mental stress to maintain psychological balance.
In terms of exercise, you can decide the type, intensity, frequency and duration of exercise according to your physical condition. It is recommended to exercise 3-5 times a week for 20-60 minutes each time, which is conducive to regulating blood pressure. You can choose walking, jogging, Tai Ji Chuan, aerobics, gateball, qigong and dancing, but don't do too strenuous exercise.
In addition, in a reasonable diet, limiting the intake of salt, fat and alcohol can correspondingly reduce the levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. In short, controlling blood pressure and preventing the risk of cardiovascular diseases also need comprehensive treatment to achieve the best results.
