“…356 -375 -377 After treating 375 53 diabetic patients with mild hypertension for 1 month with a 35 to 40 g fiber diet comprised of 15% fat, 20% protein, 65% unrefined carbohydrate, 0 to 5% refined carbohydrate, and 40 to 50 mmol sodium per d, they observed a 6.8% reduction in diastolic blood pressure (p <0.001). No significant change in systolic blood pressure occurred.…”

This report reviews a variety of nonpharmacological approaches used to control arterial blood pressure. Of all the modalities considered, only three had sufficient scientific support to warrant recommendation for inclusion in hypertension treatment programs. Each of these three modalities -weight control, alcohol restriction, and sodium restriction -was found to be capable not only of independently controlling blood pressure (particularly in patients with mild hypertension) but also of reducing the number and dosage of prescribed pharmacological agents, should their prescription be indicated. Weight reduction was found to reduce the risk from elevated arterial pressure as well as overall cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, because the rate of recidivism was exceedingly high in these studies, close and continuous patient follow-up is considered necessary. Excessive alcohol intake is associated in many studies with proportionally higher arterial pressures and an increased prevalence of hypertension. Therefore, the recommendation of moderation in alcohol consumption to less than 2 oz of ethanol daily for patients with hypertension is supported. Restriction of dietary sodium to less than 2 g/day was the only other nonpharmacological approach with sufficient scientific support to be recommended as a treatment for hypertension. Although long-term studies are sorely lacking, sodium restriction has been shown to be manageable and safe and probably will benefit those hypertensive patients who are sodium-sensitive.

Both groups had significant fall in BP in 1 yr; no difference between groups. Elements of "general health package" may have lowered BP.
