Answer:

increasing your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy products may help reduce blood pressure. For a more structured nutritional plan based on these guidelines, you may want to become familiar with the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) Diet. This diet is based on a major study conducted by the American National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute that examined different diets and their effects on blood pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eating a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products and low in saturated fat and cholesterol can lower high blood pressure by up to 11 mm Hg .
