DASH stands for—Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension.

It was developed based on research gleaned from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute’s studies. The diet is designed to lower high blood pressure without the use of medicines.

The diet does not involve you living off lemonade or drinking juice for seven days straight. There are no crazy tricks or extreme restrictions to make this diet work. You can still eat most of the foods you love. You don’t have to feel as if cardboard-tasting food is your only option.

So, let’s dive right in and learn more about this new lifestyle plan you are going to undertake.
