The DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is highly recommended for managing blood pressure.
Stay Active
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise (like walking, swimming, or cycling) each week. Daily movement helps keep your heart strong and your vessels flexible.
Quit Smoking
Smoking damages blood vessels and raises your blood pressure. Quitting can reduce your risk of heart disease almost immediately.
Limit Alcohol
Heavy or regular alcohol use raises blood pressure over time. Cutting back to moderate drinking — one drink a day for women, two for men — can make a difference.
