High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)PrognosisThe prognosis of high blood pressure depends on how long you've had it, how severe it is, and if you have other conditions, such as diabetes, that increase the risk of disease of the heart, brain, eyes and kidneys. When high blood pressure is treated adequately, the prognosis is much better. Remember, high blood pressure can lead to a poor prognosis even if you do not have symptoms, and that both lifestyle changes and medicines can control your blood pressure and greatly improve your prognosis.

I made this soup after trying a similar one at a restaurant. Theirs had fewer tomatoes, no beans and white rice. I wanted to add more nutrition, so I added spinach, a green pepper and more tomatoes, and I use white meat chicken instead of dark. Beans and brown rice add fiber. This new soup is a good compromise of taste and time Full Recipe
