Staying Healthy
All Heart Healthy Food Delivery meals are prepared using the nutritional
guidelines from Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating. If you or someone
you know has any of the following medical conditions and need to change
eating habits, Healthy Heart Food Delivery is just what the doctor
ordered. All of our meals are low in sodium and saturated fat.
Diabetes
A proper diet is one of the key elements that can help keep blood sugar and diabetes under control. With the Healthy Heart Food Delivery meal plan, you always receive calorie-controlled meals that are nutritionally balanced. For more information about the role diet can play in controlling diabetes, visit the Canadian Diabetes Association website at www.diabetes.ca.
High Cholesterol
Cholesterol is a waxy, fatlike substance found in all animal tissues, including meat, fish, poultry, egg yolk and dairy products. If you consume too much cholesterol, (which is easy to do if you don't pay attention to what you eat), it will deposit itself in your arteries. This causes your arteries to become narrow and clogged, putting you at risk for a heart attack and other forms of heart disease.
The Healthy Heart Food Delivery meal plan is low in fat and cholesterol - the perfect combination for a heart-healthy diet. Visit the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada's website at www.heartandstroke.ca for information about reducing dietary cholesterol.
High Blood Pressure/Heart Problems
The Healthy Heart Food Delivery meal plan is sodium restricted, calorie controlled and low in trans fat. The combination of probable weight loss and sodium-restricted meals may help lower blood pressure and decrease heart problems. Lower trans fat may mean a reduction in the risk of heart disease.
