Research shows the low-fat Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan — which includes 2 to 3 servings of dairy foods and 8 to 10 servings of fruits and vegetables — may help manage blood pressure. In fact, a trio of minerals found in dairy foods — calcium, potassium and magnesium — may play an important role in maintaining healthy blood pressure. See below for handouts, recipes and other patient and client education materials on dairy foods’ critical role in blood pressure maintenance.
Here you’ll find research, handouts and other materials (in English and Spanish) about dairy’s role in The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program. The educational handouts are perfect for use in local WIC offices.
