Struggling with lowering High Blood Pressure? The DASH approach might be for you. DASH is a simple acronym for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. I came across it recently in a Long Term Care Nursing Facility. This approach has been shown to help prevent, or help reduce, High Blood Pressure. It is very similar to what is found in the South Beach Diet I am on. The DASH approach is big on vegetables and fruits, encourages low fat milk and cheeses, watches or limits foods regarding saturated fat and cholesterol, and stresses a reduction in salt and sodium.
Dash for Health is a Web Site that will create menus and assist you in getting started on this diet. The creators of the diet claim you will see reductions in your blood pressure in just 14 days. It is worth taking a look at, if you are looking for natural ways to reduce your blood pressure.
