They admit they can eat healthier and exercise a little more, but find it almost out of their control. Some doctors mention diet or exercise (although others do mention, mention, or recommend RD). In most cases, medication is given and symptoms are monitored. But that's what I'm here for. I am here to tell you that heart disease is preventable and reversible. Second, there are many healthy foods that you can eat to improve your health. Let's take a look at some categories. Omega 3 is a heart-healthy fat. They help lower LDL cholesterol and reduce inflammation in the body. Inflammation makes it more likely that oxidized LDL will accumulate in arteries. You need to keep your LDL at healthy levels and reduce inflammation in your body, and omega-3 fatty acids can help with this. Where can I find them? Unfortunately, omega-3s are not productive in the food supply, but there are some great omega-3-rich foods you can incorporate into your diet.
Examples include fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines, grass-fed beef, and plant foods such as walnuts, flaxseed, and soybeans. Other Healthy Fats Besides to omega-3s, other healthy fats are part of a heart-healthy diet. The unsaturated fats found in olive oil, nuts, seeds, and avocados are great for your heart. Contrary to popular belief, saturated fat isn't all that bad either. Before you give up butter, it's a good idea to give up pastries. What do these antioxidants do for you? They help scavenge free radicals so they don't damage your arteries and other organs. You neutralize them. Antioxidants are very important for heart disease because inflammation in the body tends to increase free radicals. Good food choices? Colorful berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, etc.), grapes, legumes, nuts, seeds, whole grains, all kinds of vegetables, green tea, and even coffee. But this list is not complete. All plant foods contain some type of antioxidant (many of which work ), so you can't go wrong with a wide variety of plant foods.
