Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is a proven way to lower blood pressure through dietary changes. It emphasizes eating fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein while reducing sodium and saturated fat intake. Consuming more iron and zinc or reducing potassium intake would not necessarily lower blood pressure, and following a high-glycemic diet may actually increase blood pressure.
