What is a heart healthy diet?

A heart healthy diet is generally lower in overall fat, sodium and cholesterol than the typical “standard American diet“.

Did you know that following a heart healthy diet not only lowers your risk of heart disease, but also some forms of cancer, dementia and inflammatory diseases?

According to the American Heart Association, a heart healthy diet consists of:

A variety of fruits and vegetables
Whole grains
Low-fat dairy products
Skinless poultry and fish
Nuts and legumes
Non-tropical vegetable oils
