DASH diet recipes
Discover our nutritionist-approved recipes, all suitable for the DASH diet. We’ve pulled together 10 delicious options, from Mexican-style bean soup, to crunchy oat clusters and curried cod.
The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet, more often referred to as the DASH diet, was created in association with research sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. It was originally devised as an approach to eating healthily which could also help to treat and prevent high blood pressure. The DASH diet emphasizes plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, beans, wholegrains and healthy fats. In addition, it suggests limiting foods such as added sugar, salt, saturated fats and too much red meat.
