The Dietitian's Process
Our digital therapeutic acts as your personal dietitian, providing guidance on making healthy food choices. We focus on the importance of a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. We believe in reducing processed foods as much as possible, as they often contain high levels of sodium, unhealthy fats, and added sugars. By following our recommendations, you'll be well on your way to a healthier diet.
The Importance of Salt Reduction
Sodium, commonly found in salt, is a major contributor to high blood pressure. Our digital therapeutic will educate you about the role of sodium in your diet and provide practical tips on reducing your sodium intake. Small changes, like choosing low-sodium alternatives and being mindful of condiments, can make a big difference in managing your blood pressure.
Embracing a Healthy Diet
A healthy diet isn't just about reducing sodium. It's about nourishing your body with the right nutrients. Our app will guide you in selecting a variety of nutritious foods, ensuring you get essential macronutrients, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support your overall health.
Harness the Power of Exercise
Physical activity is an essential component of managing your blood pressure. Our digital therapeutic will act as your exercise coach, offering personalized exercise recommendations and motivation. Engaging in regular physical activity, such as brisk walking, swimming, or cycling, helps strengthen your heart, maintain healthy weight and reduce blood pressure.
Beyond Diet and Exercise
Our digital therapeutic goes beyond diet and exercise to address other lifestyle factors that impact your blood pressure. We provide resources and support to help you improve your sleep patterns, reduce alcohol intake, manage stress, and quit smoking. These elements, when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, contribute to better blood pressure control.
