Maintaining a healthy heart requires careful eating of healthy foods, and this does not mean avoiding pizza, sweets and the like, but rather not overeating them.
The cardiologist, Dr. Elizabeth Claudas, indicated that she sometimes likes to eat ice cream and french fries, but there are some foods that she completely cut out from her diet because of the potential health risks to her, namely:
Butter and cheese
Saturated fats should be limited because they raise cholesterol, which is linked to heart disease.
They should be replaced with unsaturated fats, such as those that come from vegetable sources such as olive oil and nuts. These types of fats can lower cholesterol.
fried foods
Fried foods contain a lot of saturated fat and salt, which can lead to high blood pressure.
Research published in the Journal of the American Heart Association found that eating fried foods increases the risk of heart failure.
The researchers said it is not clear why this is, but they suggested several possible reasons, as frying increases the levels of fat in some foods, and increases the concentration of oxidized cholesterol, which is also linked to heart disease.
Bacon and sausage
Claudas revealed that she completely avoids processed meat, as it contains a lot of preservatives, which are linked to an increased risk of cancer.
