DASH Diet
- includes samples menus for 1500, 1800, and 2000 calories/day DASH Diet -
The
DASH
study (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) found risk of elevated blood pressure could be reduced with a low-fat eating plan rich in dairy, fruits, and vegetables. The plan is also rich in calcium, potassium, and magnesium, and protein (especially from fish, poultry, and nuts) and fiber (from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains). A second DASH study found that eating the DASH diet in combination with a reduced sodium intake results in the greatest benefit towards lowering high blood pressure. The DASH diet can be used to maintain or achieve a healthy weight and promote overall health. The diet is rich in fruits and vegetables which have been shown to lower cancer risk, high in dairy which is shown to lower osteoporosis risk, and low in saturated fat, trans fats, and cholesterol which have been shown to lower cardiovascular disease risk. Exercise is also a key element in maintaining a healthy weight and a healthy weight is a factor in normal blood pressure control.
WHERE’S THE SODIUM?
Only a small amount of sodium occurs naturally in foods. Most sodium is added during processing. The following table provides examples of the varying amounts of sodium in some foods. When reading the nutrition label, look for sodium and milligrams instead of percentages.

TIPS TO REDUCE SALT AND SODIUM
·
Use reduced sodium or no-salt-added products. For example, choose low or reduced sodium, or no-salt-added versions of foods and condiments when available.
·
Buy fresh, plan frozen, or canned with “no-salt-added” vegetables.
·
Use fresh poultry, fish, and lean meat, rather than canned, smoked, or processed types.
·
Choose ready-to-eat breakfast cereals that are lower in sodium.
·
Limit cured foods (such as bacon and ham), foods packed in brine (such as pickles, pickled vegetables, olives, and sauerkraut), and condiments (such as MSG, mustard, horseradish, catsup, and barbecue sauce). Limit even lower sodium versions of soy sauce and teriyaki sauce.
·
Use spices instead of salt. In cooking and at the table, flavor foods with herbs, spices, lemon, lime, vinegar, or salt-free seasoning blends (like Mrs. Dash). Start by removing the salt shaker from the house.
·
Cook rice, pasta, and hot cereals without salt. Cut back on instant or flavored rice, pasta, and cereal mixes, which usually have added salt. Try to make more food from “scratch.”
·
Choose “convenience” foods that are lower in sodium. Cut back on frozen dinners, mixed dishes such as pizza, packaged mixes, canned soups or broths, and salad dressing – these often have a lot of sodium.
·
Rinse canned foods, such as tuna, canned vegetables, and beans to remove some sodium.
·
Look for frozen dinner foods with less than 500 milligrams of sodium. Look for brands such as “Healthy Choice
, Smart Ones
, Lean Cuisine
, Lean Gourmet
, etc.
REDUCING SODIUM WHEN EATING OUT
·
Ask how foods are prepared. Ask that they be prepared without added salt, MSG, or salt-containing ingredients. Most restaurants are willing to accommodate requests.
·
Know the terms that indicate high sodium content: pickled, cured, soy sauce, broth.
·
Move the salt shaker away.
·
Limit condiments, such as mustard, catsup, pickles, and sauces with salt-containing ingredients.
·
Choose fruit or vegetables instead of salty snack foods.

Tips on eating
the DASH way:
Start small. Make gradual changes in your eating habits.
Center your meal around carbohydrates, such as pasta, rice, beans, or vegetables.
Treat meat as one part of the whole meal, instead of the focus.
Use fruits or low-fat, low-calorie foods such as sugar-free gelatin for desserts and snacks.
REMEMBER! If you use the DASH diet to help prevent or control high blood pressure, make it part of a lifestyle that includes choosing foods lower in salt and sodium, keeping a healthy weight, being physically active, and, if you drink alcohol, doing so in moderation.
