1. Pickles and Preserved Vegetables: These popular and convenient foods contain high amounts of sodium, which can constrict blood vessels and increase heart burden, leading to high blood pressure.
2. Animal Organs: While considered nutrient-rich, animal organs are high in cholesterol, fat, and purines.
Cholesterol and fat can clog and harden blood vessels, increasing heart burden and blood pressure, while purines can lead to gout or kidney stones.
3. Fried and Barbecued Foods: These delicious foods are subjected to high temperatures, causing protein and fat to denature and oxidize, creating harmful substances.
4. Salted Snacks and Processed Meats: Salted snacks, such as chips, and processed meats, like sausages, contain high amounts of sodium and unhealthy fats.
