As a major risk factor for stroke, heart attack, and heart failure, high blood pressure has become one of the nation’s biggest public health threats. Fortunately, the arsenal against rising rates of high blood pressure includes the DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension).

  • The DASH diet encourages a reduction in salt and an increase in fruits and vegetables to 8-10 servings per day and milk group foods to 3 servings per day.
  • The DASH diet has been shown to be as effective in reducing blood pressure as much as some medications.
