A member asked:
Can you tell me how much time can i expect it to take for my blood pressure to start coming down once i change my diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No answer: This question has been languishing because it's hard to answer - because there are too many variables. How will you change your diet? How consistent will you be? Are you over weight? How much weight do you intend to lose with your change in diet? How high is your bp? In general, dietary changes on average produce only modest changes in BP although there is interperson variablility.
