10 Foods to Avoid with High Blood Pressure
Food to Avoid with High Blood Pressure #3: Deli-Meats
Deli-meats are simply delicious. They help make some of the best sandwiches that you can think of and can be enjoyed in so many other ways. They are also very convenient and easy to use, making them ideal for people in a rush. The bad news, though, is that deli-meats can be very bad for you indeed.
Salt has been used as a preservative for thousands of years and many deli-meats still use salt as part of the curing and preserving process. This high salt content is very bad for us and can contribute significantly to high blood pressure. The problem is often made worse with other ingredients that are also high in salt.
