Eating a lot of oily, greasy foods—especially those high in bad fats like trans fats and saturated fats—can raise your blood pressure. These fats can clog your arteries, making it harder for blood to flow, which increases pressure. Plus, many oily foods are loaded with salt, which directly pushes up blood pressure. On the other hand, healthy fats from things like olive oil, avocados, and fish can actually be good for your heart when eaten in moderation. So, it’s more about choosing the right kinds of fats.
