Research Notes on High Blood Pressure Diet
Following a proper diet plan can reduce the risk of having high blood pressure, or can help to control the disease. One of the most important dietary changes you can make is to reduce the amount of sodium that you take in.1 A low sodium diet consisting of fewer than two grams of sodium daily can reduce the chances of your blood pressure rising.1
Fast Facts:
- The increasingly popular DASH diet consists of consuming fruits, vegetables, and low fat dairy foods.2
- Reducing the amount of alcohol you consume can reduce the chances of having elevated blood pressure.1
- The combination of potassium and sodium works together to regulate blood pressure.2
