DASH stands for “Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension.” This eating plan was designed to lower the risk of hypertension (high blood pressure). High blood pressure affects 1 in 3 U.S. adults and is a major risk factor for heart disease.

When you follow the DASH diet, you consume higher amounts of potassium — a heart-healthy mineral. You also consume less sodium, which can help lower your blood pressure and improve heart health.
