Food Favorites to Avoid

Watch your diet; eat healthy foods, exercise and stay fit. We all want to live relatively free of physical problems like obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, but we are not careful about prepared or packaged foods sold in supermarkets. Take for instance our love for ice cream. We think that the best is Haagen-Daz.  Nutritionists and scientists, according to a Nutrition Action Newsletter, an average half-cup serving squeezes half-a-day's saturated fat and a third-of-a-day's cholesterol into your artery walls and makes nearly 300-calories on your fat cells. That's of course assuming that you can stop after the first half cup of ice cream.
Whether or not you can believe this report, it is always a good idea to watch what you eat -- stay with healthy foods. More later on favorite foods to avoid.

Know Your Cholesterol

Cholesterol is a type of fat found in your body. It is made up of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and HDL (high-density lipoprotein), the two make up your total cholesterol.
LDL is “Bad” Cholesterol. It can build up in the wall of arteries causing a narrowing of the arteries slowing or blocking blood flow, thus increase your risk of heart disease. A major cause of heart disease is high LDL (Bad) Cholesterol..

HDL Cholesterol, called “Good” Cholesterol, helps remove the LDL (Bad) Cholesterol from arteries.
Triglycerides are another type of fat found in your blood. High levels of triglycerides are also unhealthy.


Keep in mind that LDL (Bad) Cholesterol is not totally to blame. There are certain risk factors that add to the effects of  LDL which put you at a greater risk of heart disease. Consult your doctor or health care professional for a more detailed explanation.
