Healthy Eating Communications Kit

Summary: Want to eat healthier and protect your heart? The CDC has a plan to help! Many people think the salt shaker on their dining table is the main reason we eat too much salt. But surprise! Most of the sodium we eat actually hides in packaged foods and restaurant meals.

To keep your heart going strong, try the DASH eating plan. It is a flexible guide that uses normal food you can find at any grocery store. You don't have to give up flavor, either. Just swap out salt for tasty herbs and spices like rosemary, thyme, and pepper. By making small changes, like adding more fruits and veggies to your plate, you can easily build a healthy eating style for life.
