I assume the Dash Diet is one you have to pay for and it personalises the meal plans for you. I expect it’s a good one,

Might I suggest something simpler? Blood Pressure UK has lots of information about raised blood pressure and how to best deal with your diet and lifestyle, including BP friendly recipes. The Eatwell Guide, (Google it) too, is free and endorsed by dieticians.

However you approach it, you do need to take your blood pressure seriously. I wish you well.

Not what you're looking for?
