Heart Health Diet Plan

What a heart-health plate looks like

Each meal should have:

- Lean protein. Poultry, fish, eggs, or plants.

- Fibre-rich carbohydrate. Whole grains, fruit, vegetables.

- Unsaturated fats. Olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds.

That mix steadies glucose and supports lipids.

Fruit and vegetables are low-calorie and help blood pressure and cholesterol. Whole grains and starchy vegetables such as brown rice, oats, quinoa, and sweet potato should replace refined grains.

Beans and lentils can stand in for red meat. They bring protein and fibre.

Protein choices that help the heart:

- Oily fish such as salmon and mackerel, 2 to 3 servings a week, for omega-3s.

- Red meat no more than twice a week. Eggs up to 6 a week.

Low-fat dairy for protein and calcium without the extra saturated fat of full-fat versions.
