Happy Valentine's Week!
Since there are so many hearts in the air this week, it's a good week to remember to be heart healthy. Here are some key tips:
- If you smoke, stop....please! About 30% of all heart disease deaths are directly related to cigarette smoking.
- Load up on heart friendly foods. Eat more vegetables, fruit, whole grains & legumes (beans)
- Eat smaller but more meals throughout the day (5 - 6 mini-meals).
- Drink 32 to 64 oz. of water daily (unless fluid restricted).
- Move your body! 30 - 60 minutes of moderately vigorous exercise at least 3-4 times a week. Check with your doctor before starting a new workout program.
Here is this week's heart healthy menu!
Enjoy!
