Cooking at home more often
Home-cooked meals allow for complete control of sodium, added sugar, and saturated fat. A study showed that people who ate outside even one meal a day consumed 7% more sodium than eating at home. Cooking is not elaborate but can also make significant differences.
Active exercise
Active exercise is good for blood pressure. Although planned exercise is very beneficial, daily activities are also very important. Research shows that activities such as: Playing with children, taking dogs for walks... can have a positive impact on blood pressure.
Relieve stress and control stress
Stress and high blood pressure often go hand in hand. Prolonged stress makes blood pressure more difficult to control. Maintaining small daily habits such as drinking a cup of tea in quiet spaces, or staying away from electronic devices for a while... helps relieve stress, thereby benefiting blood pressure.
Besides, when switching from one job to another, deep breathing a few times can help balance the mood, good for blood pressure.
