hypertension

by lina123, May 11, 2009 09:34AM
hello
i have two questions about diet for hypertensive patients.
1)should a hypertensive patient has a free salt diet or low salt diet?
2)doesn't a free diet worsen hypertension by increase of sodium and water reabsorption from kidney?
thanks

Check out the DASH diet for all your questions.
Low salt is the answer basically.
