The DASH diet, or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension is a diet that was designed with the goal of drastically reducing adherents' dangerously-high blood pressure levels. Specifically, it focuses on cutting out excessive salt intake, as this can make hypertension worse and lead to kidney failure, strokes, blindness, and even heart disease. It can be altered slightly for weight loss goals or to control insulin dependence, but multiple studies have confirmed its effectiveness.

With health fads and scientists constantly coming up with new theories on how to be healthy, sometimes it is best to go back to the basics. Sometimes we need reminding that plenty of sleep, water and good food is the key to good health.

A healthy choice when it comes to food is to use herbs as a substitute for salt. Too much sodium in your diet not only has ill effects on your health, but it also bloats your body. To combat that, train your taste buds to survive without much salt. Use vibrant herbs and spices in your food to enhance flavor without the sodium. If you are not familiar with different herbs, experiment to find out which ones work perfectly with your taste. This is one of the secrets of the Dash diet and one of the perfect ways to drop those pounds that can cause serious problems.
