DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. DASH lowers high blood pressure and improves levels of cholesterol. This reduces your risk of getting heart disease.
The DASH Diet
- Emphasizes vegetables, fruits, and fat-free or low-fat dairy products.
- Includes whole grains, fish, poultry, beans, seeds, nuts, and vegetable oils.
- Limits sodium, sweets, sugary beverages, and red meats.
Along with DASH, other lifestyle changes can help lower your blood pressure. They include staying at a healthy weight, exercising, and not smoking.
my advice to you would be
1) Keep a BP daily record for at least one week
2) Basic tests should be one to rule out cardiac /
kidney issues
3) unless any recent evaluation has been done I would advice these test
ECG
ECHO
Lipid Profile
TSH
KFT
Renal doppler
