Summary:
Lin and Svetkey (nephrology, Duke U. Medical Center) compile 14 chapters of science-based practical information for healthcare providers tasked with providing effective lifestyle interventions for controlling blood pressure. Medical specialists in nutrition, public health, pediatrics, cardiovascular medicine, and other areas in the US and Taiwan present an overview of the scientific evidence on nutrition and lifestyle in relation to blood pressure control and relevant considerations for real-life situations, with discussion of diet, minerals, antioxidants, micronutrients, sodium, body weight, and physical activity; different aspects of implementing recommended lifestyle modifications (motivational interviewing, self-management, and behavioral change); special considerations among children and adolescents, pregnant women, and those with diabetes; and the elements of a practical approach for helping patients.
