The Dash Eating plan ’free’ pdf is a most excellent publication, although basic guide, for the Dash Diet.

As a newly diagnosed patient with HBP it is really nice to have a clear, plan based approach to treatment. I plan on reaching out to other sources as much as possible but this is a great baseline.

I’ve lost and kept off 148 pounds following the DASH plan. I started out just adding a vegetable or two at meals. Then my husband joined in. Soon we were eating less salt & my blood pressure gradually went down. We both walk for exercise every day. My cholesterol went down to normal too. It took me five years to lose the weight, but I feel terrific that with DASH as a template, the weight loss is permanent for a longer and much healthier life. Thank you so much!

This diet is not new. This is something that the Seventh-day Adventist has been proclaiming for more than a century, a diet that is composed of fruits, nuts, legumes, etc. This diet will also work wonders for diabetics.

Thank you for a wonderful resource for control of high blood pressure. My doctor simply put me on medication without any mention of diet or lifestyle. I discovered your great booklet via "High Blood Pressure for Dummies": I will be showing both to my doctor!

I am amazed at the number of complaints about it being expensive!! "Compared to What?" If you think expense in prevention is high, how do you cope with the cost of the alternative? Get real. Great stuff keep it up for ALL our sakes. Good on ya mate!

Not only was your information useful in educating me in Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty. But your DASH eating plan is exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you.

I do have a high blood pressure and I am currently trying to control it by a healthy lifestyle (workout, food habits, medication), this book is great because it gives in-depth and step-by-step information. I really like the meal-plan area with the recipe. It really helps me.

Having had to deal with hypertension most of my life, this is a great refresher in learning how to not only take control of your blood pressure but also gives you the knowledge to help you make overall healthier eating and activity choices. Thanks so much!

I appreciate that the download is free, but with the amount of color/graphics in the original, it takes a lot of toner over the course of a 55 page document. Could another download be created in black and white with fewer graphics and photos? Thanks.

Is it possible to adjust the menus to suit vegetarian needs?
7/17/2007 11:37:49 AM
This is an excellent resource. I am an RD and have been using this for years. I wish there was a more printer friendly version of the 7 days of menus, so they could be printed on just one page-front/back, with an average of the analysis for another page. Thanks for keeping this resource current and all the hard work that goes into the updates. I love the recipes and often will hand those out w/o the menus.

Very interesting information and helpful except for the suggestion of margarine which contains hydrogentated oil. Butter is better

After reading reports on USDA Food Plans and costs, and serving information on My Pyramid, what I need it a menu planner with recipes and a shopping list, interactive so I can plug in the number of members in my family and their ages, so it fits us. It’s the only real way to apply all the information available on My Pyramid in a way that saves me time in planning and money at the store, while making sure my family eats healthy meals.

An excellent resource that can be consulted to help an individual take control of his/her dietary intake that will ultimately lead to lower blood pressure, weight loss and overall better health. The $3.50 price is cheap (or Web portal is free); many monthly magazines cost more than this and do not have near the amount of useful information this resource contains!

The potassium to sodium ratio is the key. Reducing salt is very important, but increasing potassium should be emphasized also. I have switched to eating more fresh fruits and vegetables and stay away from processed food as much as possible. I am now off the beta-blocker drugs. Why hasn’t the food industry cut back on salt? One can of Hormel chili has 2200 mg of sodium. You would think they don’t care about our health.

I think it would be reasonable to ask pts or clients to spend $3.50 for an excellent resource. If we all did some soul searching, we probably spend that much on a coffee or bag of potato chips, pretzels, etc. The price of a single book is very reasonable, in my opinion and if a pt is motivated, it is not too much to ask.

We use this for our cardiac rehabilitation patients, weight loss program and diabetes patients. It is a great tool for everyone, children as well.

Following the DASH diet and lifestyle produced many positive health benefits. It lowered my blood pressure, reduced my cholesterol levels and my waist and weight went down as well. This is a common sense approach for anyone who wants to lead a healthy lifestyle. If you want to increase the quality and quantity of your lifespan then a sensible dietary approach like DASH is the way to do it!

I am a diabetes educator RD and I find this resource very useful. It is especially illuminating to show how a moderate calorie, low sodium, low fat diet can have so much food! Clients really appreciate the recipies and 7 day food plan. Thanks for the excellent product. Having the option to download is great for low budgets!
The book does a great job explaining the background of the dietary theory.
