2. Eat healthy foods
Choose whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products. Eat less saturated fat, trans fat and cholesterol. Choose nutrients such as potassium, calcium, magnesium and fiber.
A healthy diet can lower the top number in a blood pressure reading, called systolic pressure, by up to 11 mm Hg. Examples of eating plans that can help manage blood pressure are the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet and the Mediterranean diet.
