What are the changes to your lifestyle, diet and
exercise?
Firstly, you are strongly advised to eat oats (instant/ quick-cook)
as heavy breakfast, and greatly reduce eating fried foods and junk
foods.
Secondly, please start cardio exercising.
Start from light to gradual to moderate.
e.g. brisk walking, then fast walking, then slow jogging, then
jogging/ swimming.
Thirdly, if you drink alcohol/ smoke tobacco, please quit.
It's best that by changing your lifestyle, your BP will gradually
stablise and be within normal range. Doctors advise that to manage
BP effectively, it's optimal to change your lifestyle, next is to
reduce drug dosage, and finally be completely off medicine.
That's why I strongly urge you to eat oats (instant/
quick-cook).
3 big scoops (Chinese soup spoon) into a bowl.
Just add boiling water to 70% full.
Cover the bowl with a plate and wait 10 to 15 minutes.
Add water to 100% full, and consume at lukewarm.
Fast and easy-to-make breakfast.
Never ever skip breakfast.
Start off the day by having a heavy breakfast.
Have lunch at 70% full.
Have dinner at 30% full. If still hungry, eat oats.
If possible, drink Pu'er/ oolong tea
(without sugar) daily.
Why I recommend you this?
My parents have HBP since first known 2 years ago.
And now, their BP is well-maintain with this 1st step in a simple
change in diet/ lifestyle.
