How to Eat Healthy
So what constitutes a good eating plan? Book stores offer a seemingly endless supply of diets and programs that try to define for us what and how often to eat, to be healthy or manage weight. So much information can be very confusing.
This section offers basic nutritional guidelines provided by prominent and credible health and government authorities such as the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. We begin with general guidelines that should give you a good sense of the core elements of how to eat healthy, followed by additional recommendations for those with heart disease. We've also included Web links that will help you get more detailed information to suit your specific needs.
It is important to remember that the information on this site, or any website, cannot replace the advice of your doctor. Talk to your doctor to create a healthy eating plan for your needs; he or she may assist you in developing a healthy eating plan or refer you to a registered dietitian (a good resource to discuss with your healthcare professional is the American Dietetic Association, which can be accessed via ). It's especially important to talk to your doctor if you have heart disease or suffer from any other medical conditions.
