Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Li Man
Patients with hypertension are generally advised to consume certain vegetable oils, such as olive oil, corn germ oil, and rapeseed oil. This is primarily because these oils have relatively low fat content and contain nutrients that may help prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, thus benefiting the overall health of hypertensive patients.
