DASH simply means for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. Hypertension or having a high BP, is a common but very serious health problem that was once called the "silent killer". By doing damage to blood vessels and key body organs, it can lead to ill health and even death. Some of the victims of high blood pressure have been world famous - U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was among them, sadly living in a time just before the first pharmaceutical treatments for and understanding of hypertension came about. He died in 1945 near the end of the Second World War, and some of the first effective treatments for high blood pressure were developed just a few years later, in the 1950s.

Roosevelt died from a cerebral hemorrhage, which basically means a blood vessel in your brain bursts and it fills with blood, killing off your brain cells. He had multiple health problems - and most of them could be traded to his high blood pressure. We measure blood pressure in mm of mercury, which is abbreviated mm Hg. The reason this is done is that historically (and often still today) scientists measure pressure by seeing how far a thin column of mercury will rise inside a narrow glass tube, or capillary. Mercury is metal but its liquid at room temperature. The properties of mercury made it ideal for measuring pressure.
If your blood pressure reached 200/100 or 300/195, it would be considered an emergency. Back in those days, FDR was allowed to continue his usual routine in daily life. Today, 200/100 would be considered an emergency requiring a visit to the emergency room while 300/195 would be considered absolutely catastrophic. And of course, it was - when his blood pressure got that high he ended up dying.
Let's briefly talk about pipes and pumps so that we have some understanding of how blood pressure works. You can imagine a water pumping system with a pump that pushes the water through the pipes. Different pipes will lead to different conditions. Without getting into the physics and engineering behind it, you can understand that pressure will go up if the pipes are narrow, compared to pipes with a wider or larger diameter. Also, to get the same amount of water through, the pump has to work harder or expend more energy to get that water through narrow pipes than it does through larger pipes. The water also travels at a higher velocity and what happens if you break open the pipes? The narrower the pipes the more forceful the water gushing out would be.
