Abstract

Objective: To promote the application of a therapeutic diet in elderly patients with hypertension. Method: Descriptive observational research. Results and conclusions: High blood pressure is a pandemic disease on the rise as patients age. Therefore, it must be remembered that in the prevention as well as in the treatment of this disease, the reduction of sodium consumption is an important measure, together with other hygienic dietary modifications such as exercise, weight loss, correct intake of the type and amount of fat, gain in the intake of potassium, magnesium and calcium. With global measures such as reducing the use of sodium in processed foods, food labeling, selecting low-sodium products, and the use of other flavors such as spices, you can get a high deficit in the level of sodium intake.
