Abstract:	Arterial hypertension along with a number of dietary risk factors top the global mortality statistics for noncommunicable diseases. The so-called Western diet and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle are partly responsible for the high prevalence of hypertension. A healthier diet has a major role in the prevention and treatment of hypertension. Given the wide range of options for dietary modifications, it is necessary to define important evidence-based cornerstones of a blood pressure-lowering diet and to assess its blood pressure-lowering potential. While extensive evidence has been generated in recent decades and guidelines emphasize healthier diets, implementation of dietary modifications remains a challenge in everyday clinical practice. Information and education as well as medical and nutritional support for patients can help to implement measures, such as weight and sodium restriction in the long term to improve the prognosis of patients with hypertension.
