A Diet Plan That Can Be Followed By All Ages!

Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Maria-Paula Carrillo, cares for many of my patients with digestive health issues.  She has just released a new book- DASH Diet Meal Prep: 100 Healthy Recipes and 6 Weekly Plans

Tired of trying fad diets to improve your health to only give up on day 3? Looking for a simple way to improve your health and your family’s too through food? The DASH diet might be just the right call for you!

The DASH diet is a lifelong eating approach that is healthy and balanced. It is designed to aid in the treatment or prevention of high blood pressure (hypertension). DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. The DASH diet was developed in research sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and has tons of literature and science to back-up its recommendations and results.

The DASH diet encourages a reduction in the sodium content of your diet while promoting a variety of foods rich in nutrients that help lower blood pressure, such as potassium, calcium and magnesium.

Since the DASH diet is a balanced and healthy way of eating, the benefits it offers go beyond managing hypertension. It is a diet pattern that can be followed by all ages.  For the past 8 years, it has been ranked at the top of the Best Overall Diet by U.S. News & World Report. 

How do you become successful at implementing the doctor-approved, heart-healthy D.A.S.H. (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet? By adding in one huge additional benefit―meal prep.
