ABSTRACT
The Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) constitutes a nonpharmacological dietary strategy tailored with the primary objective of mitigating hypertension and averting its potential complications. Numerous clinical studies, such as the PREMIER trial, DASH sodium study, and OmniHeart trial, as well as other studies, substantiate the DASH diet's ability to manage hypertension. Beyond its profound impact on hypertension reduction, the DASH diet has exhibited notable efficacy in addressing an array of conditions such as heart failure, lipid homeostasis, dyslipidemia, and uric acid dysregulation. With its empirical foundation, the DASH diet emerges as an indispensable tool in the hypertension management toolkit, warranting its exploration and integration into various medical contexts. This review commences with an overview of both the DASH diet and the significance of hypertension as a prevailing health concern. The ensuing discussion meticulously examines the extensive body of clinical research, firmly establishing the DASH diet's prowess in hypertension management. Furthermore, this review delves into the strategic approaches necessary for the successful implementation of the DASH diet, outlining the roles of technology and governmental responsibilities in ensuring its widespread adoption. As a comprehensive examination of the DASH diet's efficacy and potential, this review underscores its significance in modern healthcare paradigms.
