Degree of Concordance With DASH Diet Guidelines and Incidence of Hypertension and Fatal Cardiovascular Disease

Abstract: Our results suggest that greater concordance with DASH guidelines did not have an independent long-term association with hypertension or cardiovascular mortality in this cohort. This implies that very high concordance, as achieved in the DASH trials, may be necessary to achieve any benefits of the DASH diet.

“…While the HEI has been associated with lower risk of CVD only in women (48,49) , its variantthe AHEI -has been associated with lower risks of CVD in both women and men (35) . Adherence to a DASH-type diet has been the only dietary pattern shown to be inversely associated with the long-term incidence of hypertension in a large prospective cohort, the Iowa Women's Health Study, including 20 993 women (50) . Not surprisingly, we also found a protective association also for this pattern against the risk of hypertension.…”

“…17,18 Food items on the MAP FFQ were assigned to 7 DASH food groups, and 3 components, the proportion of energy from total fat, from saturated fat, and milligrams sodium per day, were computed using the Harvard nutrient database. The composite DASH diet accordance score (0-10) was calculated 19 with further modifications 20 (table e-1 on the Neurology ® Web site at Neurology.org). The MedDiet score (MedDietScore) 21 is based on intakes of alcohol and 10 food groups.…”

“…One way of including these criteria in this initial stage is through the identification of the ingredients high in sodium, always preferring fresh foods. Such choices are also suggested in the literature 33 , as well as in the Canadian Guide. Examples of these practices include preferring fresh vegetables instead of canned vegetables and marinating meats with olive oil and fruit juices instead of ready sauces 23 .…”
