Abstract

Over 1/4 of Connecticut adults have been told that they have high blood pressure. Poor nutrition is a significant factor in developing hypertension. The Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension is a highly efficacious, healthy diet that involves the incorporation of many nutritious foods all geared to lower blood pressure. My project aims to provide patient education on the DASH diet by making a concise resource that includes healthy recipes that adhere to the diet.
