Your Weekly Heartwise Habit
Read More Than Nutrition Labels
WHENEVER SHOPPING, always check ingredient labels for "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil" or "shortening," because this means the product contains trans fats, which are extremely un-heart-healthy. While the FDA requires food manufacturers to reveal trans fat content on labels, they don't have to if the product contains less than 0.5 gram per serving. And the only safe intake of trans fat is zero. Get more Heartwise Habits.Featured article

RECIPE OF THE WEEK
Flax Mayonnaise
A delicious dip can upgrade a meal from so-so to superb. This flax mayonnaise is one of those meal-transforming condiments. Plus, it's loaded with heart-healthy benefits. For one, it features flax oil, made from flaxseeds, which are one of my Sinatra's Super Foods. Flaxseeds are a fantastic source of omega-3 fatty acids, which help prevent cholesterol from clogging arteries. Flaxseeds also contain phytosterols, which inhibit the body's absorption of dietary cholesterol. The milk and yogurt base of this dip provides calcium, protein, and vitamins B12 and D, which all promote a healthy heart. So, mix up some of this delicious dip today. It'll keep (and keep tasting more flavorful) for up to two weeks.
You'll find this and many more delicious, heart-healthy recipes inside.
