Diet and heart health go hand in hand. A healthy diet and lifestyle are the best weapons to fight cardiovascular diseases, according to the World Health Organization. A diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables is a hallmark of a healthy lifestyle. And supplementing such a diet with other heart-healthy foods is a great way to reduce one’s risk for cardiovascular disease.

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Fruits and vegetables are healthy whether they’re fresh, frozen, canned, and/or dried and should be eaten with every meal and snack. The American Health Association suggests replacing half the ground meat in recipes for burgers, meatloaf or

meatballs with cooked chopped mushrooms. They can then be mixed in with the lean meat, and the meal can be cooked as it normally would. At the breakfast table, add fruit to a bowl of cereal.

DAIRY When purchasing dairy stick to fat-free or low-fat options. Replace whole milk with fat-free or 1 percent milk and buy only fat-free or low-fat cheese. When snacking, reach for fat-free or lowfat plain yogurt or cottage cheese and add fruits or vegetables.

PROTEINS When choosing proteins choose chicken and fish over red meats because they have less saturated fat than red meat. Saturated fats

increase blood cholesterol levels and can worsen heart disease, while the unsaturated fats in fish like salmon can actually reduce the risk for cardiovascular issues like heart failure and ischemic stroke.

GRAINS Read the ingredients list on the package before purchasing grains. Make sure whole wheat or another whole grain is the first item listed in the ingredients list, and choose only those products that say 100 percent whole grain. Instead of preparing white rice as a side dish, serve brown or wild rice, quinoa or oats.
