What is the proper diatery hapits for hypertension client ? -

Consume a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products with a reduced content of saturated and total fat. Reduced dietary Na intake to no more than 2.4g Na or 6g NaCl per day. Limit alcohol consumption to no more than 2 drinks (ex. 24 oz beer, 10oz wine, or 3oz 80 proof whiskey) per day in most men and to no more than 1 drink per day in women and lighter-weight persons Maintain normal body weight

Avoid foods that are high in salt (read the nutrition labels) or are obviously salty by nature. Salt increases fluid retention and raises the blood pressure. That is probably the biggest diet rule to follow.

low sodium is good watch stress levels
