Book Description :

The DASH Diet Action Plan is the user-friendly teaching guide to the DASH diet. Initially, many people find it difficult to follow the DASH diet. This book makes it simple to understand and put into practice. The book makes it easy to lose weight with the DASH diet, and it has realistic ways to add exercise. Although the book was not intended to be an aggressive weight loss book, people are writing to say that they have surprised themselves by finding it easy to lose weight following the plan! Many people find the DASH diet to be hard to implement and sustain in a hectic lifestyle. The average American gets 2 - 3 servings of fruits and vegetables combined each day, so following the DASH diet may seem daunting. The DASH Diet Action Plan book is designed to help you with more than just "what" is involved with the DASH diet, it also shows you "how." How to follow the DASH diet in restaurants, how to lose weight, how to make over your kitchen to make it easy to follow your plan, how to fit in exercise, how to reduce salt intake, how to add vegetables even if you "hate" vegetables. And the book helps you make your own personal plan with specific steps you will take to fit the DASH diet into your daily routine. Our readers say that this is the best DASH diet book! Your step-by-step plan will include: setting your goals for blood pressure and cholesterol, determining the calorie-level you need for maintenance or weight loss, developing meal plans, developing a realistic exercise plan, adjusting the DASH diet to accommodate other health problems, choosing the key DASH diet foods, reading food labels, and learning how to incorporate more vegetables in your diet, and setting up your kitchen to make it easy to stay on track. This book was written by a registered dietitian who is experienced in helping people make sustainable behavior changes, and make healthy eating part of their real lives. She knows that people need flexibility and options to choose different approaches, since not everyone has the time or the interest in cooking or making drastic changes in how they eat. The book incorporates tools that will help you plan the specific steps you will take to adopt the DASH diet. Research shows that people who make concrete plans are more likely to be successful with adopting new health behavior.

Book Description :

This book by the National Institutes of Health (Publication 06-4082) and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute provides information and effective ways to work with your diet because what you choose to eat affects your chances of developing high blood pressure, or hypertension (the medical term). Recent studies show that blood pressure can be lowered by following the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan-and by eating less salt, also called sodium. While each step alone lowers blood pressure, the combination of the eating plan and a reduced sodium intake gives the biggest benefit and may help prevent the development of high blood pressure. This book, based on the DASH research findings, tells how to follow the DASH eating plan and reduce the amount of sodium you consume. It offers tips on how to start and stay on the eating plan, as well as a week of menus and some recipes. The menus and recipes are given for two levels of daily sodium consumption-2,300 and 1,500 milligrams per day. Twenty-three hundred milligrams is the highest level considered acceptable by the National High Blood Pressure Education Program. It is also the highest amount recommended for healthy Americans by the 2005 "U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans." The 1,500 milligram level can lower blood pressure further and more recently is the amount recommended by the Institute of Medicine as an adequate intake level and one that most people should try to achieve. The lower your salt intake is, the lower your blood pressure. Studies have found that the DASH menus containing 2,300 milligrams of sodium can lower blood pressure and that an even lower level of sodium, 1,500 milligrams, can further reduce blood pressure. All the menus are lower in sodium than what adults in the United States currently eat-about 4,200 milligrams per day in men and 3,300 milligrams per day in women. Those with high blood pressure and prehypertension may benefit especially from following the DASH eating plan and reducing their sodium intake.

Book Description :

Do you want a 7-days meal plan for weight loss, burn fat, lower your blood pressure, prevent diabetes and live healthy? If yes, then keep reading... DASH simply means for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. Hypertension or having a high BP, is a common but very serious health problem that was once called the "silent killer". By doing damage to blood vessels and key body organs, it can lead to ill health and even death. Some of the victims of high blood pressure have been world famous - U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was among them, sadly living in a time just before the first pharmaceutical treatments for and understanding of hypertension came about. He died in 1945 near the end of the Second World War, and some of the first effective treatments for high blood pressure were developed just a few years later, in the 1950s. This book covers the following topics: DASH Diet and... Preparing for DASH diet What Should You Eat? What Shouldn't You Eat? Getting into the DASH Diet 7-Day DASH Meal Plan Improvement How to live DASH Diet DASH Breakfasts DASH Lunches DASH Snacks and Appetizers DASH Dinners DASH Desserts ...And much more Roosevelt died from a cerebral hemorrhage, which basically means a blood vessel in your brain bursts and it fills with blood, killing off your brain cells. He had multiple health problems - and most of them could be traded to his high blood pressure. We measure blood pressure in mm of mercury, which is abbreviated mm Hg. The reason this is done is that historically (and often still today) scientists measure pressure by seeing how far a thin column of mercury will rise inside a narrow glass tube, or capillary. Mercury is metal but its liquid at room temperature. The properties of mercury made it ideal for measuring pressure. If your blood pressure reached 200/100 or 300/195, it would be considered an emergency. Back in those days, FDR was allowed to continue his usual routine in daily life. Today, 200/100 would be considered an emergency requiring a visit to the emergency room while 300/195 would be considered absolutely catastrophic. And of course, it was - when his blood pressure got that high he ended up dying. Let's briefly talk about pipes and pumps so that we have some understanding of how blood pressure works. You can imagine a water pumping system with a pump that pushes the water through the pipes. Different pipes will lead to different conditions. Without getting into the physics and engineering behind it, you can understand that pressure will go up if the pipes are narrow, compared to pipes with a wider or larger diameter. Also, to get the same amount of water through, the pump has to work harder or expend more energy to get that water through narrow pipes than it does through larger pipes. The water also travels at a higher velocity and what happens if you break open the pipes? The narrower the pipes the more forceful the water gushing out would be. Ready to get started?

Book Description :

A bestselling author's groundbreaking eating plan that challenges the notion that starch is unhealthy From Atkins to Dukan, the fear-mongering about carbs over the past few decades has reached a fever pitch; the mere mention of a starch-heavy food is enough to trigger a cavalcade of shame and longing. In The Starch Solution, bestselling diet doctor and board-certified internist John A. McDougall, MD, and his kitchen-savvy wife, Mary, turn the notion that starch is bad for you on its head. The Starch Solution is based on a simple swap: fueling your body primarily with carbohydrates rather than proteins and fats. This will help you lose weight and prevent a variety of ills. Fad diets come and go, but Dr. McDougall has been a proponent of the plant-based diet for decades, and his medical credibility is unassailable. He is one of the mainstay experts cited in the bestselling and now seminal China Study—called the "Grand Prix of epidemiology" by the New York Times. But what The China Study lacks is a plan. Dr. McDougall grounds The Starch Solution in rigorous scientific fact and research, giving readers easy tools to implement these changes into their lifestyle with a 7-Day Quick Start Plan and 100 delicious recipes. This book includes testimonials from among the hundreds Dr. McDougall has received, including people who have lost more than 125 pounds in mere months as well as patients who have conquered lifethreatening illnesses such as diabetes and cardiac ailments.
