Summary:An abstract of a study by Gill et al determining if increased Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet compliance over eight weeks results in decreased coronary heart disease (CHD) risk in an understudied, at-risk population is presented. The results suggest that registered dietitians can use DASH recommendations with overweight and obese college females to reduce certain CHD risk factors.
