Recent reports on the effectiveness of moderate salt restriction and moderate weight loss in reducing elevated blood pressure have stimulated a renewed interest in dietary control of hypertension. It is possible that mild hypertensives (diastolic 90 to 104 mm. Hg.) can maintain normal blood pressure on diet therapy alone, with out anti-hypertensive medication. The role of the dietitian in the management of hypertensive patients is reviewed, and barriers to this role's effectiveness are discussed. It is recommended that national efforts be exerted to make this safe therapy available to all.
近期有关适度限盐和适度减重对降低血压升高有效性的报告，激发了人们对高血压饮食控制的新兴趣。轻度高血压患者（舒张压90至104毫米汞柱）有可能仅通过饮食疗法就能维持正常血压，而无需使用抗高血压药物。本文回顾了营养师在高血压患者管理中的作用，并讨论了影响该作用有效性的障碍。建议国家做出努力，使这种安全的疗法能够惠及所有人。
