More of a lifestyle than a traditional diet, a heart-healthy diet emphasizes whole, mostly plant-based foods, as well as fatty fish and lean proteins, to maintain healthy blood pressure and cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and to keep heart disease at bay. A heart-healthy diet is an eating pattern designed to prevent cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. It’s less of a diet in the traditional sense of the word and more of an overall dietary pattern that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, lean protein, and healthy fats and limits sodium, added sugar, saturated fat, and alcohol. Click to Read.
