National High Blood Pressure Education Month 2006

The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan can help reduce the risk of developing high blood pressure as well as help lower blood pressure that is already elevated. The biggest benefits to blood pressure, however, occur when the DASH diet is combined with reduced sodium intake.

While changing to a low-sodium diet can be difficult, Wellbaskets.com has tried to make the transition a little easer with a line of Low Sodium Gift Baskets. The baskets contain delicious, low-salt gourmet treats and are appropriate for birthdays, holidays, special occasions, and get well gifts.
