A client who was recently diagnosed with prehypertension is to meet with a dietitian and return for a follow-up with the cardiologist in 6 months. What would this client's treatment likely include?

Respuesta :

In order for the client not to become hypertensive, he should eat properly and drink plenty of water. The nutritionist should pass a diet low in sodium and fat, as the tendency is that triglycerides decrease in the exams. The dietitian should go on a diet rich in vegetables, fruits and vegetables and recommend light exercise such as walking until the patient sees the cardiologist.
