When it comes to heart health, experts agree that vegetables are essential in one’s diet. Recently, the American Heart Association ranked 10 popular dietary patterns for their impact on cardiometabolic health, ultimately finding that the DASH and Mediterranean diets came out on top, while the keto and paleo plans scored poorly. Dietitians recommend a diet high in whole grains, non-starchy vegetables, and lean meat and fish, while avoiding saturated fats, refined sugars, and processed foods for long-term health benefits. Furthermore, experts caution against unsustainable crash diets and recommend finding a sustainable diet pattern that works for each individual. By making small, obtainable changes to your diet, you can positively affect your health in the long term and prioritize lifestyle changes over quick-fix solutions.
