How do diet/exercise control high blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
High blood pressure: Frequently high blood pressure is associated with being overweight or obese. In these individuals proper diet and exercise can bring about weight loss which in turn tends to normalize the blood pressure. Also some dietary factors e.g. Eating excess salt can elevate the blood pressure, so salt restriction can be of help.
