Heart Health and Diabetes
A heart-health case file
Your community centre is planning a heart-smart lunch. Before choosing foods, read this fact file. The heart is a muscle that pumps blood around the body. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to organs. Over time, high blood glucose can cause damage inside the body. Diabetes is associated with a higher risk of heart and blood-vessel disease, although the risks differ from person to person. Diabetes does not mean someone will definitely develop heart disease. A balanced eating pattern can support heart health. It can include vegetables and fruit, wholegrain foods, beans and lentils, nuts and seeds, and sources of protein such as fish, eggs or tofu. Choosing foods lower in salt and limiting foods high in saturated fat can also help. Water is a good everyday drink. Regular movement, sleep, and support from health professionals matter too. There is no special meal that cures diabetes, and people’s food needs can vary.
