10 Most Common Heart-Healthy Foods

Did you know that there are 10 foods well-known for their heart-promoting properties?

Fish - Fatty fish like salmon and tuna are chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids, which support healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Oats - Soluble fiber has been shown to keep cholesterol levels healthy.
Berries - Berries are packed with fiber, known to support healthy cholesterol levels, but what makes them so colorful - the anthocyanins - are the secret powerful ingredients for berries.
Dark chocolate - With its high percentage of cocoa (and low sugar), you can incorporate this antioxidant boost into your diet.
Potatoes - Surprised by this? Well, potatoes are filled with potassium, necessary for the healthy functioning of your heart.
Legumes - Loaded with fiber and B-vitamins, enjoy a bowl of chili or black bean soup for your heart.
Tomatoes - Rich in potassium and lycopene (where that red color comes from), tomatoes are good for your heart.
Nuts - A beautiful balance of fiber and healthy fats, nuts in moderation are very heart-healthy.
Olive oil - Extra virgin olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats, necessary to keep the heart in fine function.
Coffee - If you love a cup of coffee in the morning, you’ll enjoy it even more now knowing its high antioxidants help support healthy cholesterol levels and inflammation.

It is not only about shopping smart, but learning what foods are anti-inflammatory and will work to support you! Let's schedule a grocery shopping tour and a pantry cleanup so you have the right foods to benefit your heart!

Physically active people have lower health risks as a whole, but in particular heart health. Exercise does the following:

1. Helps improve the muscle’s ability to pull oxygen out of the blood, reducing the need for the heart to pump more blood to the muscles.
2. Reduces stress hormones that can put an extra burden on the heart.
3. Slows heart rate and lowers blood pressure naturally.
4. Decreases risk of atherosclerosis.

Carve out time every day to MOVE! Your heart will thank you! I can help you customize an exercise plan that works for you!
