ABSTRACT
It is estimated that a population-wide reduction in blood pressure comparable to that seen with the reduced sodium DASH diet would result in a decrease of 1 7% in the prevalence of hypertension, a 6% reduction in -the risk of coronary heart disease, and a 15% reduction in stroke and transient ischemic attacks, High blood pressure can-be controlled by weight loss in ' people who are overweight; being physically active; eating more fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy foods; choosing foods lower in sodium; limiting alcohol intake; and, if prescribed, taking antihypertensive medications, All but the last also help prevent high blood pressure, If micro- or macroalbuminuria is present a modest reduction in protein may slow progression of nephropathy
