Diet of pregnant hypertensive

There, as in the case of diabetes, hypertension prior to pregnancy and other "induced" by him (toxemia hypertensive or pre-eclampsia).

In either case, the dietary supplement is only a general therapeutic measures, which usually consist of rest and the administration of antihypertensive drugs allowed during pregnancy.

Just as diuretics are contraindicated by the imbalances that determines its use in the fetus, nor salt should be excluded entirely from the diet, since none of these measures can prevent the aggravation of a poorly controlled hypertension.
It shows all natural foods, which should not be added to table salt, prioritize the use of those with low sodium in his replacement.

In no way is totally exclude foods containing sodium in its composition, as a minimum contribution is even necessary.
The bread and certain mineral waters have a high sodium content, as well as cold cuts, canned (including candy), pizzas and sausages.

If you want to further reduce calorie intake, the sugar substitute that can be used is the aspartano or pure saccharine, as cyclamates are always combined in the form of sodium cyclamate.

Hypertension in a pregnant woman

None of this has to do with eclampsia, real disease of pregnancy, which could well-defined scientific-licensed as "intolerance" to the progression of it. Among its complications, the pre-clampsia (and of course greater eclampsia) is characterized by high blood pressure, which would be responsible-in this case-of headaches.

First, the common ones, have no consequences arising from that same pain. Those who are due to hypertension, should alert us that something is wrong. It is easy to distinguish: the headaches of eclampsia are very intense and appear in the third trimester of pregnancy, in situations where, typically, there were no headaches at the beginning. The hormones are more intense at the beginning of pregnancy and tend to be better tolerated and softer along the same.

The possible treatment during pregnancy is reduced to facilitate the evacuation of the gallbladder (antispasmodic) and the administration of aspirin, except that the latter can not be ingested in the form indiscriminate or permanently.
Before resorting to it, we should always consult with the obstetrician.
