Diet can make a significant difference in lowering BP. Decreasing salt intake, losing weight and exercise are all very important
Dietary changes can play a significant role in managing and reducing high blood pressure. Adopting a healthy diet, known as the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet, has been shown to effectively lower blood pressure.

The DASH diet emphasizes consuming fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, low-fat dairy products, and limiting sodium intake. Additionally, reducing the consumption of saturated fats, cholesterol, and processed foods can have a positive impact on blood pressure.

While dietary changes alone may not completely "fix" high blood pressure in all cases, they can greatly contribute to its management and even reduce the need for medication. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian for personalized advice and guidance based on individual circumstances.
YES but it's depend of what kind of diet. The most important thing is Exercise, no salt, and no sugar.
