Excessive energy intake
Excessive or inappropriate intake of fats
Excessive sodium intake
Inadequate Ca, fiber, K or Mg intake
Overweight/obesity
Food & nutrition-related knowledge deficit
Physical inactivity

Nutrition therapy guided by: The patient’s hypertension history Other medical risk factors Current medical treatment Readiness for behavior change
Nutrition education A Cochrane data analysis of 23 clinical trials
confirmed that nutrition education: fiber, fruit, & vegetable intake total dietary fat intake blood pressure, LDL-c, & total serum cholesterol

DASH

DASH study (1990s): n=459; SBP <60 mmHg, DBP 80-95 mmHg; 27% HT; 50%♀; 60% African-American.
3 eating plans: = what many Americans consume; = what Americans consume but higher in fruits & vegetables DASH eating plan
All: 3000 mg of sodium daily None of the plans was vegetarian or used specialty foods Results: both F & V & DASH reduced BP DASH had greatest effect, esp. for high BP BP reductions came fast—within 2 weeks

Weight loss
18
Weight reduction is a standard component of nutrition therapy for HT
Weight loss >5 kg or even <10% SBP & DBP Waist circumference is an independent predictor of HT
risk A normal BMI or overweight, waist circumference should
be measured

Sodium modifications incidence HT 17%. BP control through sodium restriction incidence of
cardiovascular disease, renal disease, and stroke DASH Sodium (n=412), SBP 120–159 mmHg & DBP
80–95 mmHg, 41% HT, 57% ♀, 57% African-Americans 2 eating plans: DASH or typical Americans Followed for a month, sodium levels: a higher intake = 3,300 mg/d (the level consumed by many
Americans) an intermediate intake = 2,400 mg/d a lower intake = 1,500 mg/d

DASH Sodium – results:
21
dietary sodium BP for both eating plans At each sodium level, BP was lower on the DASH eating
plan than on the other eating plan The biggest BP reductions were for the DASH eating plan
at the sodium intake of 1,500 mg/d HT person saw the biggest reductions, but those without
it also had large decreases These reductions occurred even when body weight
remained stable The magnitude of BP reduction with this dietary pattern the reduction noted with BP lowering medications

Sodium – recommendation
23
<23z00 mg of sodium 6 g of NaCl each day of foods. Th e practitioner should teach the client strategies
for limiting intake to 2300 mg/day (100 mEq) and provide
information on the sodium content of foods (see Table 13.5). Th e DASH diet (Box 13.4) gives specifi c guidelines for
comprehensive nutrition therapy. Boxes 13.6 and 13.7 list practical steps for controlling sodium intake. Only small amounts of sodium occur naturally in food Limiting the intake of highly processed foods Avoiding those foods that are cured using salt Omitting salt during the cooking and preparation

Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium
29
All been positively correlated with reduction of BP and treatment of HT
The diet used in the DASH trials provided an average of 4–6 g of potassium/day from fruits and vegetables
The vasodilation results from hyperpolarization of the vascular smooth muscle cell subsequent to potassium stimulation by the ion of the electrogenic Na-K pump and/or activating the inwardly rectifying Kir channels

Calcium
32
Increases in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, which increases vascular smooth muscle intracellular calcium, thereby increasing peripheral vascular resistance and blood pressure
Dietary calcium reduces blood pressure in large part via suppression of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, thereby normalizing intracellular calcium.

Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium
33
The nutritional effects demonstrated by the DASH study—and in particular, the relationship between K, Ca, and Mg and blood pressure reduction—were a result of a dietary pattern rich in these nutrients rather than mineral intake from supplements.
Fiber
34
Little is known about the potential mechanisms through which dietary fiber might lower BP.
Dietary fiber reduces GI of foods, thereby attenuating insulin response, enhance insulin sensitivity and improve vascular endothelial function.
Soluble fiber improves mineral absorption in the GIT Each gram increase in dietary fiber, the concentration
of blood LDL-c was lowered by about 2 mg/dL

controlled trials.Arch Intern Med. 2005 Jan 24;165(2):150-6.

Nutrition therapy
39
Nutrition therapy affects atherosclerosis by interfering with plaque formation and/or by inhibiting the inflammatory response that causes the physiological changes within the blood vessels
The clinician should focus on the cumulative effect of the entire diet as well as other lifestyle factors when
planning dietary changes Nutrition assessment nutrition diagnosis nutrition

Heart failure
49
Nutrition therapy
50
50% of patients with heart failure are malnourished Sodium & fluid restriction is crucial to control acute
symptoms & may assist with reducing the overall work of the heart
But at the same time, individuals with heart failure have difficulty eating and many experience a syndrome of malnutrition called cardiac cachexia, is a form of malnutrition, characterized by extreme skeletal muscle wasting, fatigue, & anorexia
The etiology is not completely understood multifactorial metabolic and hormonal abnormalities

beverage <2,000 mg sodium Anorexia, fatigue, & shortness of
breath lead to such poor oral intake

Fluid
59
Typically 1 mL/kcal or 35 mL/kg HF 1500 – 2000 mL/day Adjustments (+) based on renal and cardiac
status in order to prevent volume overload. Weighing the patient daily to monitor fluid
status Fluid restriction difficult to tolerate
nutrition education
Nutrition education on fluid restriction
60
Make sure the patient understands the specific volume that is allowed
What items are considered to be fluids The suggestions to aid with controlling thirst. Visually demonstrating support the patient’s
understanding & compliance All beverages and foods such as soups, ice cream, yogurt,
custard, etc. should be counted within the fluid allowance Finally, good mouth care, rinsing the mouth frequently, and
using cold or frozen foods can help control thirst

Other nutrients concern
61
Arginine, carnitine, & taurine linked to cardiac cachexia Arginine supplementation in HF production of nitric
oxide significant role in initiating vasodilatation in the vascular endothelium
Carnitine responsible for carrying fatty acids intracellularly into the mitochondria for oxidation
HF have lower levels of carnitine when supplemented positive outcomes
