Remember, all of the food you eat affects the health of your heart. A well-balanced natural health heat diet should be considered.
The basis of a successful diet plan is, everything in moderation.
Our bodies are designed to thrive on all kinds of food. Eliminating one or more can result in some serious health consequences. For example, doing away completely with food such as potatoes, that contains potassium; fibre and vitamin B can lay the groundwork for major heart attack
Fat free diets have their dark side too. Not all fats are bad. Saturated fats are no more cause of weight gain that any other fat. All fats contain the same amount of calories. It’s the saturated fats however, that increases the LDL Cholesterol in our bodies and has become known as “bad” fats.
You will find many of the saturated “bad” fats in commercial baked products such as cakes, biscuits, pies, doughnuts and sweets, to mention but a few
Studies have proven that by reducing the dietary intake of these “bad” saturated fats lower blood levels of LDL Cholesterol and thus lower the risk of heart attacks
One of the best ways to cut back on bad fats is to substitute good for bad, Healthy unsaturated fats come in two forms. Polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats.
Monounsaturated fats are the most beneficial for the heart because the not only reduce the bad LDL Cholesterol but they also increase the HDL “good” Cholesterol
Nuts are one of natures best healthy snack foods, containing high amounts of magnesium, copper, folic acid, potassium, fibre and Vitamin E. They also provide a particular helpful source of “good” fats. Apart from being unsaturated they also contain “Arginine”, which is an imino acid. Arginine helps to relax the lining of blood vessels, preventing blood clots that can also lead to heat attacks
