Get the Facts with the DASH and
Physical Activity In Brief Fact Sheets

NHLBI has developed two new In Brief fact sheets, which are concise versions of the more in depth booklets in the Your Guide series. The In Briefs featured below focus on high blood pressure and physical activity, and are the latest additions to the series. Take a look at these fact sheets during February, American Heart Month. They make great handouts for heart health education activities or as personal reminders of key steps to take !

DASH BriefLearn and Follow the DASH Eating Plan

High blood pressure affects more than 65 million–or 1 out of every 3–American adults. NHLBI has developed the In Brief: Your Guide To Lowering Your Blood Pressure With DASH fact sheet in order to succinctly communicate the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan and complement the comprehensive Your Guide booklet. Research shows that high blood pressure can be prevented–and lowered–by following the DASH eating plan, which includes eating less salt and sodium.
