Tips for Proper Nutrition for a Healthy Heart

Proper nutrition is crucial for a healthy heart. A large portion of heart diseases is caused by poor dietary habits. A healthy diet can help protect your heart and improve your heart health. In this article, I will detail some tips for proper nutrition for a healthy heart.

Reducing salt intake can help reduce the risk of heart disease. It is recommended to consume less than 6 grams of salt per day for a healthy heart.

Additionally, other flavorings, such as spices, lemon juice, and vinegar, can be used to add flavor to your meals instead of salt.
