Particular diets you can try such as:

“Dash diet”

- General Practitioner

“A mediterranean diet.”

- Pharmacist

Seek guidance from your GP regarding these. 

However - ‘patients often ask “what’s the best diet for me doctor” and the answer is no best diet, it’s just whatever works for you’?

Main changes to make:

“Cutting down on salt, not just salt you’re adding to food, but be aware of salt in foods so read the labels, a lot of ready meals are full of salt because salt is used as a preservative. Just eating a healthy, balanced diet - fibre, fruit and veg. “

- General Practitioner

“Regular exercise; up to 30 minutes a day is a good amount of exercise, and trying to keep your weight down. There are particular weights people should be at, which are usually based on how tall they are.”

- General Practitioner 

Consult your GP for further guidance with this. 

“Try and reduce the amount of cigarettes you smoke a day, along with reducing alcohol intake 

Try and manage stress through things like meditation and yoga.”
