💡 The quick answer

What foods are good for someone with high blood pressure?

The DASH diet — rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy, low in sodium and added sugars — is the most-studied pattern for lowering blood pressure. Our 7-day plan makes it practical for caregivers.

✨ Personalized, not generic
Not a template. Tailored to your loved one.

Every plan starts from their profile — condition, age, weight, allergies, dislikes and food preferences — and the menu adapts to support healthy blood pressure.

🩺

Condition-aware

Hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, CKD, dementia, dysphagia and 16 more — each plan follows the specific dietary rules for that condition.

🚫

Allergy & dislike aware

Tell us what to avoid — allergens, disliked foods, texture limits — and they never appear in the menu.

👵

Age & nutrition needs

Plans account for age, weight and activity to hit the right calories and protein for healthy aging.

💊

Drug–food interaction alerts

If your loved one takes medication — statins, levodopa, blood thinners — the plan highlights foods that may interfere, so you can check with the prescribing doctor or pharmacist.

💬 Ask NutriHearth — your caregiving assistant
Talk to it, like texting a dietitian

You don't need to fill out forms alone. Ask NutriHearth in plain words — or just speak — and it answers, explains, and builds the menu for you.

🎤

Voice input

Speak your question in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean or Spanish — the app understands what you say and replies.

🧾

Generate the menu for you

Say "my mom has hypertension (high blood pressure) and doesn't like fish" — it fills in the profile and generates a matching 7-day plan automatically.

📖

Explain any meal

Ask "why is this dinner good for her?" — it walks you through the calories, nutrients and the condition-specific reasoning behind each recipe.

🔁

Adjust & recommend

Say "swap tomorrow's breakfast" or "suggest something higher in protein" — it revises the plan and recommends alternatives on the spot.

🔬 Evidence-based
Built on published research

The science behind each plan comes from peer-reviewed literature — not opinion or trends. The hypertension plan follows the DASH diet, the most-studied eating pattern for blood pressure.

📄

The DASH Diet: Managing Hypertension Through Nutrition

DASH: rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy; limited sodium (<2,300 mg/day), saturated fat and added sugars. Can lower systolic BP by 8–14 mmHg.

📄

NIH: DASH Diet Named Best Heart-Healthy Diet (NHLBI)

DASH emphasizes vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fish, poultry, beans, nuts and low-fat dairy while limiting sodium, sweets and red meat.

🍌

Potassium-rich

Fruits, vegetables and legumes provide potassium, calcium and magnesium — DASH's blood-pressure-lowering trio.

🧂

Sodium-limited

Meals keep sodium low and flavor high with herbs, spices and fresh ingredients.

📚 From the research

What the science says about Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

('The DASH diet — high in potassium, magnesium and calcium, low in sodium — was developed in clinical trials in the 1990s and is recommended by AHA/ACC. It can lower systolic blood pressure by roughly 1–13 mmHg. Sodium targets are 2,300 mg/day for the general population and 1,500 mg/day for people with hypertension. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy are the cornerstones.',)
