Cebu City – Ang pagkaon nga kaonon managlahi para sa matag indibidwal, labi pa kung ang usa ka tawo adunay sulirang medikal ug adunay giinom nga tambal matag adlaw. Dapat magpa konsulta gyud una sa ka doktor kon unsang tambala ang angay imnon ug mu konsulta usab sa usa registered nutritionist-dietitian kon unsa nga pagkaon ang angay sa sakit nga nasinate.
Ang pagtino sa mga kinahanglanon o health requirements sa usa ka tawo mahimong lisud, labi na kon kulang ang pagsabut sa hilisgutan. Samtang ang internet mahimong usa ka mapuslanon nga tinubdan og impormasyon alang sa nutrisyon, mahimo usab kini nga makuhaan og sayop nga impormasyon o dili sakto nga kasayuran.

Negros Oriental - Hypotension, often known as low blood pressure, occurs when blood flows through blood vessels at lower-than-normal or under 90/60 mm Hg. There are two measurements of the blood pressure on artery walls: systolic and diastolic. Systolic is the pressure when the heart is contracting, and diastolic is the pressure between heartbeats. Both measurements record blood pressure in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). Healthy blood pressure for most people is usually less than 120/80 mm Hg.
Hypotension can be temporary or long lasting. It can also indicate a underlying medical condition. The basic causes of low blood pressure according to the American Heart Association (AHA) can include aging, prolonged bed rest, certain medications, side effects of high blood pressure medications, diabetes, pregnancy, heart problems, endocrine problems, severe infection, severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) and decreases in blood volume from bleeding or dehydration.
Persons with hypotension may experience light-headedness, nausea and vomiting, weakness, blurry vision, dizziness, fainting, and confusion. Call your health provider if you experienced such symptoms especially if coupled with a rapid pulse rate, shallow breathing and/or cold clammy skin as this may entail medical emergency. To help confirm the diagnosis and pinpoint the cause of hypotension, you may have to undergo different laboratory tests.
A person’s blood pressure is influenced by his/her genes, age, lifestyle, and the current health condition the patient is experiencing, if any. However, here are nutrition tips to help you achieve your ideal blood pressure.

Cebu City - It is common in people to look for taste when eating food. Salt is one factor that can affect the taste of food. Also, it is always misunderstood that sodium and table salt is different from each other. Table salt or NaCl is the most common form of salt that is present in every household. It consists of 40% sodium and 60% chloride. Sodium on the other hand is a chemical element that interacts with other substances. A little amount of sodium is needed by the human body to convey nerve impulses, contract, and relax muscles, and keep the right ratio of water and minerals. We are thought to require 500 mg of sodium everyday for these essential processes. However, consuming too much sodium can cause high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke.
