It’s Heart Day so why not show a little love to your heart and the hearts of all those you love. We have four tips to help you:

• Lower your risk of heart disease by not smoking, maintaining a healthy diet, exercising and limiting alcohol intake.
• Attain a healthy weight by eating lean meats, fish, whole grain breads and cereals, and 5-6 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Try to drink more water and avoid soda and fruit drinks.
• Become more active by joining the Gym, taking a dance class, walking or biking instead of driving everywhere, going for a swim, joining a bowling league, etc.
• Take heart healthy supplements such as Perfect ResGrape and Green Pasture Blue Ice Fermented Cod Liver Oil. Perfect ResGrape is an all natural blend of 99% pure trans-resveratrol and whole food Muscadine grapes that provides all the heart healthy benefits of red wine without the alcohol or calories. Studies have shown that resveratrol may play a key role in preventing heart disease and lowering cholesterol. The American Heart Association recommends eating fish at least twice a week, but if you can’t do this then take Green Pasture Fermented Cod Liver Oil which is rich in nutrients, Vitamins A, D, E, and K as well as the omega 3 fatty acids found in fish. The omega fatty acids are known to reduce the risk of coronary artery disease and heart attacks.

So be good to yourself this Valentine’s Day. Enjoy a wonderful candle-lit dinner at home (restaurants really hike up the prices for this holiday), maybe a chocolate or two (dark chocolate is even healthy for you) and then give your sweetheart a hug and a kiss. Don’t forget your supplements!!
