Brief Summary

Background: In the management of hypertension lifestyle changes are recommended along with pharmacological treatment. Aims: This randomized controlled intervention study aimed to compare the effects of a Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet and a salt-free diet on blood pressure in hypertension patients. Methods: This study was conducted with 60 patients with primary hypertension. One group (n=30) was given an individualized DASH diet, the other group was given a salt-free diet (n=30), and the participants were followed for two months. The patients' blood pressures were monitored daily throughout the study, and their biochemical parameters were monitored at the beginning of the study, in the first and second months.
