American Heart Month

February is American Heart Health Month! A healthy diet and lifestyle are the keys to preventing and managing cardiovascular disease. The American Heart Association recommends eating fish at least twice a week. This is due to the omega-3 fatty acids found naturally in fish, especially: salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring, and sardines. If you’re not a fan of seafood, omega-3s are also found in plant-based foods such as ground flaxseeds, walnuts, and chia seeds. Consuming omega-3 fatty acids may reduce inflammation throughout the body. Omega-3s also help lower triglyceride levels in your blood and slow down the rate that plaque (fat) builds up in your arteries. Chia see pudding is a great dessert option for incorporating omega-3s.
