Nerissa’s NotesFebruary is American Heart

Month. Let us celebrate with “EatRed with Heart Health.”

It’s time to amend that “apple aday” aphorism. Tomatoes and

cranberries keep the doctor away,too. New research shows that

incorporating these 3 red, roundfruits into your daily diet can

reduce your risk of heart diseaseby as much as 40 percent. A hearthealthy diet is always the first step

in treating high cholesterol orhigh blood. Fortunately, the

antioxidant-rich fruits (apples,tomatoes, cranberries) are as tasty

as they are healthy.

TOMATOES A new study by TuftsUniversity in Boston showed thateating lycopene-rich foods such as

tomatoes more than 5x a weekover an 11 year period reducedcoronary disease risk by 26 %.

APPLES An apple a day can reduceLDL (bad cholesterol) by as muchas 40%, according to a new smallOhio State University study. Be

sure to munch on the fruit, ratherthan drink juice: the peels house

the most antioxidants.

CRANBERRIES Drinking 3 cups ofcranberry juice daily can raise

HDL (good) cholesterol levels by10% and reduce heart disease by40%, a study at the University of

Scranton in Pennsylvania showed.Plus, this juice decreased

diet-caused atherosclerosis(clogging of the arteries) by

preventing plaque from forming.GO, GO, RED!
