Dear Komal
In the last year, I have developed high BP and am on medication for the same.
I am 45 years old and overweight but not obese.
Can this be controlled by diet and exercise?
Please suggest how.

Obesity is the prime cause of lifestyle diseases like BP.
You need to control your carbohydrate and fat intake in your diet.
Make healthy choices by including high protein and fibre-rich foods.
Reduce overall salt intake in your diet to reduce BP and include more high potassium foods like fruits.
Weight loss can be achieved by body fat burning with a balanced diet and a fitness regimen.
