High blood pressure is a product of our modern lifestyles. A person can look healthy on the outside but looks do not tell you everything. For example, someone may not be overweight but they may have a very poor diet and smoke 20 cigarettes each day. This is clearly unhealthy.

India is a huge country and people favor different kinds of dishes in each part. For instance, while in the North, the people love their cottage cheese, yogurt, milk, ghee (clarified butter) and beans, the South is more inclined towards coconuts, tamarind, pepper and chillies. East Indians love their fish and mustard oil while the more cosmopolitan West has created a cuisine which takes the best of the country in fusion with food from different parts of the world. So before you start, it is a good idea to start with basics like simple staple foods like rice, rotis (fresh bread), dal (lentils) and sabzi (simple vegetable dish).

A related myth is the idea that an alkaline-forming diet requires you to become a strict vegan. Well, it is true that all types of meat, poultry, fish, and seafood are acid-forming. So are chicken eggs, and virtually all dairy products (except for ghee, or clarified butter). However, this does not mean you need to eliminate these foods completely. It just means the need to consume them in moderation.
