title: [Exercise prescription and nutrition therapy].
abstract: In the report of World Health Organization, the leading global risks for mortality in the world are high blood pressure (12.8%), tobacco use (8.7%), high blood glucose (5.8%), physical inactivity (5.5%), and overweight and obesity (4.8%). Increased blood pressure levels cause the increased morbidity and mortality of chronic diseases, such as stroke, myocardial infarction, chronic kidney disease. Improving the high blood pressure is considered as common challenges around the world. Exercise prescription and nutrition therapy might be important non-pharmacologic therapies in the control of hypertension. Applying these therapies to the general population can help to prevent an increase in blood pressure and decrease elevated blood pressure levels for those with hypertension. Exercise prescription and nutrition therapy are discussed using the international guidelines.
