Catherine M. Champagne, PhD, RD, LDN - Dr. Champagne is Professor and Research Chief of Nutritional Epidemiology at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Her research papers have been published widely. She is an expert on the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet which may improve health in new ways other than the obviously beneficial cardiovascular effects. The DASH diet may also reduce the risk of some cancers, and the calcium in the dairy products would help to lower the risk of osteoporosis. One of the key things that has been promoted in the DASH studies is that it is made up of regular foods that are available at most grocery stores. Additionally, the DASH diet is consistent with many of the recommendations made by organizations in the United States: the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the National Cholesterol Education Program's Step 2 Diet, and the National Cancer Institute. There are data from some studies, such as the DASH and PREMIER studies, that suggest that lifestyle changes (including adequate magnesium intake) can benefit blood pressure control, promote weight loss, and improve chronic disease risk.
