Suggest Diet To Control BP And Cholesterol Levels

My cardiologist's RMO has put me on bisoprolol 2.5mg daily in the morning and simvastatin in the evening 40mg. My BP ranges from 140- 152 SBP and diastloic 89-98. My cholesterol results are within normal limits he actually put me on simvastatin before checking the results first. I prefer diet control first can these treatment be weaned. My height is 1.5m, weght 72kg.
