Heart disease is a growing concern in the Pacific, and diet plays a major role. Here are 5 foods that could be damaging your heart—and healthier alternatives to enjoy instead:
🚫 1. Fried Foods
- Deep-fried dishes are loaded with unhealthy fats that clog arteries.
✔️ Try This Instead: Opt for grilled or baked versions of your favorite meals.
🚫 2. Processed Meats (Canned Corned Beef, Sausages, Luncheon Meat)
- High in sodium and preservatives, these can raise blood pressure.
✔️ Try This Instead: Choose fresh fish or lean meats seasoned with herbs.
🚫 3. Sugary Drinks
- Soft drinks and sweet teas contribute to obesity and heart disease.
✔️ Try This Instead: Hydrate with fresh coconut water or homemade herbal tea.
🚫 4. Instant Noodles
- High in sodium and low in nutrients, they can increase heart disease risk.
✔️ Try This Instead: Prepare homemade broth with fresh vegetables.
🚫 5. Margarine & Processed Oils
- Hydrogenated fats in margarine are linked to heart disease.
✔️ Try This Instead: Use healthier oils like virgin coconut oil or olive oil.
