Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)
was a study of the effect of different dietary patterns
on reducing high blood pressure. Researchers found that volunteers
who followed the DASH diet had significantly lower blood pressure after j
ust a few weeks.They also found the lower-sodium DASH dietwhich
calls for reducing sodium to 1,500 milligrams a day (about 2/3 teaspoon of table salt),
resulted in even greater blood-pressure-lowering benefits.
