Diet for a Healthy Heart

What is the cause of most deaths in the U.S.?
Heart disease is the No. 1 cause of mortality in that country.
You can reduce the chance of heart disease. A way to do this is to choose foods carefully. To enjoy a healthy heart, eat:

  • less fat
  • less sodium
  • fewer calories
  • more fiber
  • Eat less fat


Some fats probably cause more heart disease. These fats are usually found in animal foods such as meat, milk, cheese and butter. They are also found in foods made with coconut and palm oils. Eat less of them.


Use Less Sodium


Using less sodium can help lower the pressure of blood in some people. This can reduce the risk of heart disease.


The sodium is a necessary ingredient in our diet, but most use it too. Most of the sodium we eat is in the salt we add to our food on the table, or in which food manufacturers use in their products. Therefore, do not add salt to your food on the table.
Eat fewer calories


Excessive consumption of calories increases body weight. Excess weight can cause heart disease.

The consumption of foods with fewer calories than necessary, lowering the weight.
Eat more fiber


Eating foods that contain fiber such as fruits and grains, can help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Diet Tips for a Healthy Heart
* Start a diet low in saturated fats, especially common in the flesh of some animals, birds and palm and coconut oils.
* Watch your diet foods high in monounsaturated fats like olive, canola and some seafood.
* Eat foods that contain Polyunsaturated fats found in plants and seafood. Safflower oil (oil safflower) and maize (corn oil) are rich in this type of fat.
* Choose a diet low in fat, especially common in animal foods and coconut and palm oils. (These foods contain saturated fat and cholesterol that can cause heart disease.)
* Prefer a diet moderate in the use of sodium and salt.
* Get a healthy weight and keep it.
* Eat whole grains, fruits and vegetables in abundance.


With this kind of diet you do not have to spend more money than before and you can still eat a variety of healthy foods perhaps less than we spend now.


Weight Loss Tips

Ask your doctor to measure your cholesterol level. This is done through a blood test. This test will show you a number, the amount of cholesterol in your blood. A lower figure of 200 is good. The review also will let you know how much "good" cholesterol and "bad" you have. Your doctor can explain what the numbers mean.
