Healthy Monday
While meat products are the main source of saturated fat in the American diet, candy, chips, pizza and French fries are also to blame. Processed foods also contain trans fats and excessive amounts of sodium, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke. What’s more, these foods are some of the leading sources of calories in the average American diet, which can lead to obesity and obesity-related health complications.
Instead of swapping meat out for unhealthy convenience food this week, add fresh fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains to your diet. Not only will you improve the nutrition profile of your meal, you may find that you prefer the healthier option!
