Can baked foods help lower high blood pressure?

No, baked foods generally do not help lower high blood pressure. In fact, some baked goods can contribute to high blood pressure due to their high sodium and saturated fat content.

To lower high blood pressure, it is recommended to follow a healthy diet such as the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet. The DASH diet emphasizes consuming plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and low-fat dairy products, while limiting the intake of sodium, saturated fat, and added sugars.
