Class Name: Hypertension (1hr / 1 point)<strong>Leadership</strong> <strong>Pathways</strong>OPR: HAWCCourse Description: Helping to stop “the silent killer”, we provide nutrition information oncontrolling high blood pressure using the DASH approach to healthy eating. DASH meansDietary Approaches to Stopping Hypertension. Blood pressure is an established risk factor forstroke and heart disease, and research has shown this risk to increase across the full range ofblood pressure levels. The DASH study established that a diet emphasizing fruits, vegetables,whole grains, poultry, fish and low-fat dairy products can reduce systolic blood pressure by anaverage of 5.5 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure by 3 mm Hg. Coupling the DASH diet withreduced sodium intake may potentially reduce blood pressure levels even further. Approximately48% of adults have blood pressure above optimum levels, but below stage 2 hypertension(systolic blood pressure 120-159 mm Hg or diastolic pressure 80-95 mm Hg), and the DASH dietalong with reduced sodium intake could provide suitable levels of control for a large segment ofthe population. To examine the effect of the DASH diet along with reduced sodium intake onblood pressure, two dietary patterns (a control diet typical of what many Americans consume andthe DASH diet) were compared at three levels of sodium intake: (1) higher level comparable tocurrent US intake, (2) an intermediate level which mirrors the upper limit of currentrecommendations, and (3) a lower intake which could lower blood pressure even more.The class will go over what the DASH diet is, explain the 7 steps to follow for success and in theend setting your DASH goals.
