Analysis of 1999-2006 NHANES data indicated that the dietary habits of African Americans did not vary greatly by hypertension status. Dietary intakes of magnesium, calcium and potassium, which are emphasized by the DASH diet, were below nutrient intake recommendations. Similarly, food sources of these nutrients were identified to determine the food intake patterns by hypertension status. These data will support further culturally-specific nutrition education efforts for the prevention and treatment of hypertension in African American patients. 2010-08-20 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1267036075 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1267036075 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
