Many thanks

Hello and welcome to the forum! Please could you explain more? About 20 years ago DASH was a support group for children and teens with Type I diabetes. Dietary advice was very much focussed on maintaining good control. Are you diabetic? Heart disease and diabetes are common bedfellows!

I Think the DASH Veeee is talking about stands for Dietatry Approach to Slashing Hypertention.

A new one on me! A quick glance suggests it is not far removed from the Mediterranean diet with even more emphasis on low salt to control BP.

I would advise anyone with seriously elevated blood pressure to take any prescribed medication and start the lifestyle changes. Medication doseages can always be reduced but a cardiac event cannot be undone!
