How can a well balanced diet be effective in preventing hypertension?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: There are many causes of hypertension. Eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly will decrease your risk factors for developing chronic disease such as diabetes and heart disease which are often associated with high blood pressure. Hypertension can also be caused by stress.
