摘要
Nonpharmacologic management of hypertension is all too often overlooked in the elderly. The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, weight loss, physical activity, moderation of alcohol, and salt restriction, particularly when used in combination, are effective strategies to help control hypertension and reduce overall cardiovascular risk. Behavioral modification should form the cornerstone of hypertension treatment in the elderly.
