Improve Your Diet This American Heart Month

Improve Your Diet This American Heart Month

Take better care of your heart this February.

It’s American Heart Month, a month dedicated to encouraging the American public to take better care of their cardiovascular health.  Want to improve your heart health this month but not sure where to begin?  Incorporating these heart-healthy foods into your diet is a great place to start off.

  • Salmon

Contrary to popular belief, not all fatty foods are bad for you.  The omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon actually have anti-clotting properties that help to keep your blood flowing smoothly.  In fact, eating salmon regularly can also help you lower triglycerides, a type of harmful fat that increases your chances of developing heart disease.

  • Berries

Berries are a great source of polyphenols, antioxidants that fight against damaging free radicals.  Additionally, berries offer a healthy dose of fiber and Vitamin C which have both been linked to lowering the risk of stroke.  Raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries are all great fruits to work into your diet this month.

  • Legumes

Legumes such as beans, chickpeas, lentils, and the like are a great source of soluble fiber, which has been proven to lower your bad LDL cholesterol.  As an added bonus, legumes are a much more heart-healthy source of protein than fatty red meats and processed meat products.

These are some of the heart-healthy foods that you should load up on this American Heart Month.  Want another way to take care of yourself this February?  If so, then make sure you have the right personal insurance protections in place.  For assistance with all your coverage needs, contact the experts at Gant Insurance Agency in McKinney, Texas today.
