• Explore less common lifestyle interventions
Lifestyle Interventions for the Management of Hypertension
So what do the guidelines say?
BHS Guidelines for the management of hypertension
BHS IV, 2004 and Update of the NICE Hypertension Guideline, 2006
Guidelines for management of hypertension: report of the fourth Working Party of the British Hypertension Society, 2004 BHS IV
B Williams et al: J Hum Hyp (2004); 18: 139-185.www.nice.org.uk/CG034NICEguideline
www.bhsoc.org
BHS IV
• A population strategy is required to
- prevent the rise in blood pressure with age
- reduce the need for antihypertensive drug therapy
- reduce the CVD burden
• Remember primary prevention
BHS IV
• Effective lifestyle modification may decrease BP as much as a single antihypertensive, combinations achieve more
• Lifestyle intervention may
-decrease pharmacological intervention
-enhance antihypertensive effect of drugs
-reduce need for multiple drug treatment
-positive influence on overall CVD risk

THRESHOLDS FOR INTERVENTIONInitial blood pressure (mmHg)
BHS IV
Lifestyle measures that lower blood pressure• Weight reduction• Limitation of alcohol consumption• Increased physical activity • Increased fruit and vegetable consumption • Reduced total fat and saturated fat intake
Measures to reduce cardiovascular disease risk • Cessation of smoking• Reduced total fat and saturated fat intake• Replacement of saturated fats with mono-unsaturated fats• Increased oily fish intake
NICE 2006
• Encourage use of salt substitutes
• Discourage excessive consumption of coffee and other caffeine rich products
• Tell patients about local initiatives that provide support and promote lifestyle change
• Consider relaxation therapies
• Lifestyle advice should be offered initially and then periodically to patients undergoing assessment or treatment for hypertension
• Offer guidance and written or audiovisual information

Lifestyle Interventions
The effect of weight loss on BP
• Estimated 24% of the population in the UK have a BMI > 30
• Neter et al (2003):1mmHg reduction in BP per 1kg weight loss
• Weight reduction has beneficial effects on associated risk factors i.e. insulin resistance, diabetes, dyslipidaemia and LVH
Clinic measurements
• Weight
• Height
• BMI
• Waist measurement – midway between lower rib margin and the ileac crest

Referral pathway
• Exercise on prescription
• Dietician
• “Weight Watchers”
• Obesity clinic
• Surgical Intervention
Long term benefits of weight reduction
• He et al. (2000) “Beneficial effects are still evident 7 years after study ended.”
• n= 208 high impact weight reduction advice and support• 7 years later 181 brought back• Incidence of hypertension:
19% in weight loss group40% control group
• Effect, despite being an equal amount of weight gain in both groups over the period
Dietary interventions and BP
DASH – Dietary approach to stop hypertension diet (2000)Participants with mild hypertension had approx. 11.4mmHg
reduction in systolic BP compared to control diet• Combination of a Mediterranean diet with low fat dairy
products • Low fat, high fibre including increased amounts of
potassium, calcium, and magnesium• Effects potentiated by salt restriction• Diet better tolerated than salt restrictions
5 a day (or 7-9 if possible!)
• 1 portion of fruit or vegetable represents 80g i.e 1 apple, 1 orange, 1 banana, 2 satsumas, 2 plums, 3 heaped tbsp peas or carrots, 1 bowl of mixed salad
• 1 glass of 100% fruit juice can replace 1 portion• 1 portion of fruit and vegetables a day lowers CVD risk by
4% (Joshipura et al. 2001)• Beneficial effects due to array of compound i.e. vitamins
and minerals, phytochemicals, antioxidants• Individual compounds not enough – supplements
containing isolated compound do not have same effect – may cause more harm than good
Physical activity and BP
• Aerobic endurance based activities reduce resting BP in adults with normal BP and in those with hypertension
• Places demands on the cardiovascular system• Reductions in BP last for up to 22hrs after
exercise (ACSM, 2004)• BP reductions are independent of weight loss
(Whelton et al. 2002)

Exercise Recommendations
• Frequency –x5, preferably all days of the week• Intensity – moderate • Time – 30 minutes or more of continuous activity,
alternatively 3 bouts of no less than 10 minutes accumulated during the day
• Type – aerobic exercise using large muscle groups• Caution if systolic >160mmHg and/or diastolic
>110mmHg
Alcohol and BP
• Association seen as long ago as 1917• Study of trench soldiers
“tres grands buveurs” – hypertensive“sobres” – normotensive
• Klatsky (1977) n= 84,000 men3 or more drinks per day – dose dependent relationship
• Beevers (1984) direct pressor effect of alcohol established –observed alcohol consumption and withdrawal
• Reduction in alcohol consumption may reduce BP by an average of 3/2 mmHg (Xin 2001)• Daily drinking and on empty stomach associated
with higher BP• There should be 2 alcohol free days per week• There are probably no safe alcohol limits ≤ 14 units per week for women and ≤ 21units per
week for men• Binge drinking is now defined as >3 units/day• ?? Cardioprotective properties……Jackson 2005
argued may be due to confounding
• Assess number of units per week
• Number of alcohol free days
• Binge drinking
• GGT
• 125ml wine
• 1 pub shot of spirit (35ml)
• ½ pint lager / beer / cider

Smoking and BP
• Cigarette smoking does not appear to be associated with hypertension
• BP does rise acutely during smoking leading to underestimation of BP in regular smokers
• Extensive observational data show that smoking has a graded adverse effect on risk of cardiovascular complications
• Use of nicotine replacement therapies is safe in hypertensives and doubles smoking cessation rates
• Assess smoking history- smoker / non smoker- how long given up- number of years / pack years- method of smoking- previous attempts at cessation- NRT- desire to give up
• Smoking cessation clinic / NRT

CVD RISK 16 %
• Age 51• Gender male• SBP 156• Smoker yes• Hx diabetes no• LVH no• Cholesterol 5.1• HDL 1.2

Effect of Salt on Blood pressure
• Recommended salt intake is 5g/day• Estimated that average intake is 9.5g/day• A max of 25% comes from adding at table or cooking• Na value x 2.5 to gain NaCl value• DASH Sodium - reduction in blood pressure with lower
sodium intake – direct relationship• Few observational studies and virtually no trial data exist
on the effect of sodium intake on subsequent cardiovascular disease

Salt substitutes
• Losalt1 gram contains:131mg of Sodium346mg of Potassium
• 800mg of Potassium in the average daily diet from salt substitute.
• Combined multisource daily intake is approx 3000mg potassium
• Guidance on high Potassium intake:daily range: 1600mg to 5900mgharmful range: 17,600mg (50g of LoSalt)
Effects of other minerals
• Potassium: ↓ BP 4.4/2.5 mmHg in hypertensive patients
↓ BP 1.8/1.0 mmHg in normotensives
• Observational studies show links to calcium and magnesium
• Less consistent evidence supporting omega -3 fatty acids, vits C, E and B6, folate and flavenoids.
• NICE/BHS ‘do not give supplements’
Caffeine rich products and BP
• Potent physiological effects
• Caffeine given as tablets resulted in BP elevations ( x4 greater than for caffeinated coffee) Noordzij et al. 2004
• Winkelmayer et al. (2005) found association with caffeinated cola drinks and risk of hypertension (but not with caffeinated coffee)
• Caffeine intake may only be a risk factor in individuals who are genetically slow caffeine metabolisers (Cornelis,2005)
Hamer,M (2006) Journal of human hypertension.20, 909-912
Coffee
• Effect on health remains equivocal
• 2 prospective cohort studies give conflicting opinions
- Winkelmayer et al. 2005 showed no relationship between coffee intake and incidence of hypertension (n=155,594 US women over 12 years)
- Klag et al. 2002 – John Hopkins precursor study
demonstrated a 0.19 and 0.29 mmHg rise in systolic and diastolic respectively (n=1017 men consuming 1 cup of coffee per day
Hamer,M (2006) Journal of human hypertension. 20, 909-912.
• ?? Beneficial effects
• ? Anti-oxidant properties
• ? Anti-inflammatory effects
• ? Inhibit harmful effects of other dietary components i.e. inhibition of alcohol-related hypertensive effects by lowering serum GGT
Dietary peptides and BP
• Certain dietary peptides shown to lower BP• Peptides are now being incorporated into food
products• Derived from the milk product casein either
through fermentation or enzymatic hydrolysis• IPP (transpeptides isoleucine proline-proline) and VPP (valine proline-
proline) inhibit angiotensin converting enzyme• Dose dependent response in reduction of both
systolic and diastolic BP
Stress management
• Often quoted as cause of hypertension – no evidence to support this
• Stress and anxiety cause a temporary rise in BP, but when relaxed will fall to normal levels
Relaxation Therapies
• Stress management• Meditation• Cognitive therapies• Muscle relaxation• Biofeedback
Shown to result in short term reductions in BP, but the interventions studied have been so varied, it is difficult to be prescriptive
Bandolier Oct 2002
Changes (start-end) in systolic blood pressure for stress management interventions
Resperate
• “relaxes constricted blood vessels to lower BP”
• 15mins paced breathing few times per week leads to vasodilation of vascular smooth muscle
Herbal remedies
• Limited and inadequate evidence available to support the use of garlic, herbal and complimentary medicines to lower BP
- potassium supplement- dandelion leaf (diuretic)- hawthorn (vasodilator)- linden (vasospasm)- ginkgo biloba (peripheral blood flow)- mistletoe (vasodilator)- ginger (Mg2+,Ca2+,K+)
Motivation, Motivation, Motivation
• NICE 2006
“education alone is unlikely to be effective”
• Referral to outside agencies
• Support and encouragement
• Achievable and sustainable
