Study results indicated that elevated blood pressures were reduced by an eating plan includes whole grains, poultry, fish, and nuts and has reduced amounts of fats, red meats, sweets, and sugared beverages. "DASH" stands for "Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension," a clinical study that tested the effects of nutrients in food on blood pressure. For an overall eating plan, consider the DASH eating plan.
A second clinical study, called "DASH-Sodium," looked at the effect of a reduced dietary sodium intake on blood pressure for both the DASH eating plan at the lowest sodium level (1,500 milligrams per day).
But for a true winning combination, follow the DASH eating plan and lower your intake of salt and sodium. The DASH-Sodium study shows the importance of lowering sodium intake whatever your diet.
