    Patients with hypertension need to pay more attention to calcium supplementation. Calcium supplementation has a certain control effect on hypertension, because when the calcium intake is increased, it will have a diuretic effect, which can help the excretion of potassium, and A high-calcium diet also helps lower blood pressure.
