Can people with high blood pressure eat lamb or drink lamb soup?

Blood pressure patients can generally eat mutton and drink mutton soup in moderation.

Clinically, after high blood pressure occurs, it's important to maintain balanced nutrition to help improve the body's resistance. Mutton and mutton soup usually contain abundant protein, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, etc. Eating them moderately not only helps replenish energy and enhance immunity, but also has effects such as warming and tonifying the spleen and stomach, nourishing blood and warming meridians, and benefiting the liver and improving eyesight, which is beneficial for overall health. Therefore, hypertensive patients can moderately consume mutton. However, since mutton and mutton soup contain a certain amount of fat, excessive consumption should be avoided to prevent fat accumulation in blood vessels, which may lead to vessel narrowing or blockage, and potentially cause atherosclerosis and cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases.

In daily life, if a patient's blood pressure exceeds normal levels, lifestyle modifications should first be considered for intervention. When necessary, under a doctor's guidance, antihypertensive medications can be used to control blood pressure within the normal range. Commonly used medications include nifedipine tablets, captopril tablets, etc.
