With heart disease being in the top five of Britain’s most common causes of early deaths, it’s about time to act and start exploring how we can start preventing it. The reality is, it’s not actually that difficult and by making just a few small yet significant lifestyle changes, you can easily reduce the risk of heart disease.

Healthy nutrition can help to prevent heart disease in a number of different ways. You may know the foods you should be eating but it is important to make sure you have the right type of food because the difference can be crucial. Also, choosing the right healthy options and not just the easiest will improve your overall well-being. You can learn how to nourish a healthy heart with this nutritional advice and our top tips will show you how to banish heart disease from your future.

Snack on Fruit and Veg

Fruit and vegetables are great for lowering blood pressure, which makes it easier for the heart to keep pumping blood round the body. Eating with nutritional balance helps to reduce the risk of heart disease and a detox holiday is the perfect way to re-introduce healthy foods into your diet. Make fruit and vegetables a regular part of your diet, so take them to work as snacks and always keep the fruit bowl full in the kitchen.

Go for the right Grains
