Tarry Health Fitness, Weight Loss, Workouts and Healthy Eating
Add these simple changes to your list of New Year’s resolutions.
Diet plays a huge role in the health of your heart. Yet for many people, healthy eating is a challenge. Perhaps the biggest problem is the easy access to cheap, highly processed, unhealthy junk food. But conflicting and confusing nutrition advice from popular books, blogs, and other sources is a close second. And chances are your doctor has neither the time nor the training to give you sound nutrition advice.
“People also think that changing their diet requires a major overhaul,” says Dr. JoAnn Manson, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and chief of preventive medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. “But the reality is that a few small changes can go a long way toward improving your eating habits,” she says. See “Diet swaps for a healthier heart” for a summary of these suggestions, taken from a piece she coauthored in the Sept. 26, 2017, Journal of the American Medical Association.
