(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 24, 2009 ) Boca Raton, FL --- The leading cause of death for both men and women is heart disease, but healthy eating habits may help you keep your heart healthy.

A key part of a healthy diet is eating foods that are low in saturated fat and cholesterol and a variety of fruits, vegetables, low-fat and no-fat dairy, lean meat, poultry and fish.

Fortunately, the American Heart Association makes it easy to spot heart-healthy foods in the grocery store with its heart-check mark on food packaging.

The American Heart Association’s heart-check mark is a recognizable symbol that helps you find heart-healthy foods in the grocery store. Foods displaying the heart-check mark on the packaging or label have been certified by the American Heart Association to be low in saturated fat and cholesterol for healthy
people over age two.

Selecting foods certified by the American Heart Association is a good step toward a heart-healthy eating plan.

“American Heart Association is an exciting organization with a unique mission. We are excited to have them as a guest on our program,” added JL Haber, Vice President of Programming at Media Entertainment Productions.
