'You can base your energy in your diet on either on carbohydrates or fat. It doesnât make a big difference,' says Dr Simon Dankel. Fatty foods such as cheese, butter, and cream are often considered culprits of heart disease â but according to a new study, a diet high in saturated fat could in fact bring significant health benefits.
A low-fat, low-calorie diet has been proven to help prevent the risk for a heart attack. However, if you have already had a heart attack, eating right is simply a must to prevent future occurrences. Avoid trans fats and saturated fats whenever possible. These fats directly contribute to plaque formation in the arteries. When your arteries become clogged, blood can no longer flow to the heart, resulting in a heart attack. Eating too many calories and being overweight can also strain your heart. Controlling your weight and eating a balance of plant foods, lean meats, and low-fat dairy products can help. Avoid animal fats. Instead, eat fats that come from plant sources, such as olive oil or nuts.
