15 foods to avoid for healthier blood pressure

Frozen Dinners

So nice to heat and eat on your sofa, but you know what? These dishes are usually salt bombs. “Frozen dinners and pizzas are very high in sodium,” says McManus. “Even if you’re buying a low-calorie frozen meal from a ‘healthy’ brand, often when they reduce the fat content, they also dump in sodium to add flavor.” Before you buy, check the label. If the sodium content of the entree is 600 mg or less, it’s OK as a once-in-a-while meal.
