Local Nurse, Joanna, has some tips for managing blood pressure:
-
Gradually reduce the amount of salt you eat
-
Change one day in your weekly recipe routine to healthier meals
-
Get active if you can
-
Try having a bit less caffeine and alcohol
-
Stay hydrated, with things like squash, decaf tea, milk and water. “Milk is great before you go to bed, it helps you stay hydrated for longer if you have a long sleep.”
