Good advice to all. It almost came too late for me. I had to undergo quadruple bypass over three years ago. I was a month short of 45. Listen to what people are saying and more important listen to your own body! Do something before it's too late.

Try this Omega-3 supplement to lower your cholesterol and keep a healthy heart.Copy this link to get more info.http://www.marketamerica.com/richierich/product-2247/heart-health-essential-omega_iii_fish_oil_with_vitamin_e.htm

Plus have sex three times a day, that too will greatly enhance your blood pressure.

Re COCOA: You can buy FAIR TRADE, ORGANIC COCOA at Trader Joe's for not very much, as compared to other places that charge lots.

HI, I REALLY LIKED THE INFO THAT YOU POSTED RE FOODS THAT ARE GOOD FOR THE HEART.CAN YOU PLEASE POST FOR ME WHAT QUINOA LOOKS LIKE?

i loved

A couple more comments...

for the diabetic who doesn't eat fruit, not necessary to avoid fruit, the natural sugar, plus fiber, plus vitamins and cancer-fighting polyphenols make it a "yes" food. But you're right - moderation. A half cup of bluberries in your steel cut oats with some almonds is nutritious and doesn't have added sugars.

For the person who said mixing cocoa with milk cuts out the health benefit, can you please share these published studies with us? Thanks...

Also, Coke did not sponsor my article... I'm a dietitian who specializes in weight management. My mom is a diabetic and had quadruple bypass last year. This article represents my opinion of heart healthy foods I don't think people eat enough of. That's all.

Quinoa - look for it in a bag near the rice or other grains (even though it is not a grain). It cooks in 25 minutes in water and is delicious. I like it cold with tart cherries and slivered almonds!

although the article contained some good advice and salmon is a good choice when it comes to fat, the idea that the bad fats clog your arteries is a myth, the damage to the arteries is from free radicals and how they effect the calcium transfer from inside to outside the cell, as the cell becomes engorged with calcium it dies and hardens. This build up happens not in the artery but between the layers of the artery, it happens with the heart muscle because of it constantly flexing, it will eventually rupture and in defense, the body send a blood clot and you have a heart attack. Salmon is a good choice because it contains omega 3, not because of fat clogging your artery
Notice in the article where it talks about berries preventing cell damage.

I like these ,just hot black tea insted hot cocoa.
Keep the suggestions coming!!!!

How can we trust advice given on heart health when it is sponsored by diet coke??? Diet Coke!!! Sponsoring a site on health. Gimme a break. Anything written here loses any value.

KATE YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION to all who are struggling with the problems you mentioned, or perhaps just to everyone everywhere for we all have our various burdens. It is amazing the struggle you must have gone through and even more amazing that you made it. So far I am struggling only with borderline hypertension but I know if I do not take corrective measures I will get all the rest that comes with it.

Olive oil is what makes us young!
Use Extra Virgin Olive oil to promote a young life!It is even better then fish oil because it is more easily to get and can be used in so much more recipes. Olive oil will keep you young.

i was also told about this cocoa by my pastor. he said it helps unclog arteries with this cholesterol and fats. we should have it everyday even just with 1 spoonful. live longer guys

Great to hear about all these wonderful foods, but one word of caution. Make sure the salmon you are eating is wild-caught, not farm-raised. In his book, "The Omnivore's Dilemma", Michael Pollan raises an interesting point about farm-raised versus wild-caught. Mainly, farm-raised salmon does not contain the heart-healthy Omega 3's, but rather bad Omega 6's, found in many corn-fed feedlot animals, such as beef cattle. When cows and salmon are feeding on their natural diets, they both produce Omega 3's, with the salmon producing more. When force-fed corn, which is unnatural to both, they both produce the unwanted Omega 6's.

Just passing it on.

Omg, my family eats all of these foods! Well, excluding hot cocoa since there's too much sugar... but I was astounded to see the foods that we eat every week :)
