Anette follows this diet: For breakfast she eats egg whites with vegetables and a cup of coffee. Then she has a mid-morning snack: A slice of turkey ham with a piece of fruit or panela cheese with a piece of fruit. For lunch she enjoys vegetable soup with grilled chicken, meat, or fish. For her mid-afternoon snack, a piece of panela cheese with a piece of fruit. For dinner she will eat Mexican tuna (tuna, onion, tomato, cilantro, lemon), without mayonnaise followed by a piece of cheese three hours later.

5. She Hydrates

Anette also prioritizes hydration. "For liquids I can drink water, all of it, also a drink called Clight, Diet Coke, iced tea and nothing else,” she told La Botana. Try hibiscus tea. "High blood pressure affects nearly half of all adults in the U.S., leading to serious health problems like heart attack, stroke, heart failure and kidney disease. In clinical trials, drinking hibiscus tea has been shown to lower blood pressure in humans," says the Cleveland Clinic. "However, the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health points out that hibiscus and other herbal remedies only slightly lower blood pressure. They can’t replace medications for those who’ve been diagnosed with high blood pressure."
