My daughter has just been told she has systolic heart disease. She is 49 years old and over weight. She has been told this disease is reversible and I would like to know how, other than to loose weight which is obvious. Also, how long does it take. Thank you.
hi there is no sush entity as systolic heart disease, i think you want to say systolic hypertension by systolic heart disease see there is a categorisation of systolic hypertension if it is grade 1 i.e her bp is between 140 to 159 mm of hg life style modification can be very useful ask her to do strenous exercise for atleast 45 minutes a day for minimum 6 days a week try to avoid butter and saturated fats and fast food rather try natural vegans diet restrict the amount of salt to 2 to 3 grams a day keep body hydrated by drinking plenty of water
if parameter are not normal in 3 month medicines for systolic blood pressure would be added in addition to life style modification it will take at least 3 months if done regularly thanks
