Figure 7. The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet significantly attenuates salt-induced increases in systolic blood pressure (SBP).

Figure 7

In response to increasing salt intake from 50 mmol/day to 150 mmol/day, the mean increase in SBP in subjects consuming a DASH-style diet (3 mmHg) was 50% less than that in subjects consuming a control diet typical of diets in the USA, 6.7 mmHg (p<0.001) [70].
