Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as bananas, or other foods high in potassium. Potassium helps balance the amount of salt in your body. Too much salt leads to increased fluids in your body and increases blood pressure. Limit salt and fat in your diet and eat more foods with fiber (whole grains). Ask your doctor to refer you to a dietitian for help with your diet.
