Eating fewer high-fat, high-cholesterol foods and watching calories are important steps to a healthier diet and a healthier heart. Guidelines for a healthy diet With your doctor, determine the number of calories you need each day to achieve or maintain a healthy body weight. ■ Eat fewer high-fat foods ■ Lower cholesterol intake to less than 300 mg per day ■ Keep fat intake to ≤30% of your total daily calories ■ Choose foods high in starch and fiber ■ Replace some saturated fat with unsaturated fat ■ If you drink alcohol, do so in moderation (limit saturated fat to 8%-10%of total daily calories) Read the labels to find the fat To choose low-fat products, ask yourself: 1. Is fat a major ingredient? Read food labels. To avoid too much fat or cholesterol, go easy on products that list any ingredient high in saturated fat or cholesterol first (eg, oils, lard, cheese). 2. Is there more than one type of fat in the product? When you see several high-fat ingredients on a label, the product could have too much fat. 3. Is the serving size appropriate? When you are figuring out the fat in a food, make sure you use a serving size that is close to what you would really eat—which could be more than the label says. Eating out Be just as careful when you dine out as you are when you make your own meals!
