Heart Health
According to the Irish Heart Foundation, heart disease is Ireland’s number one leading cause of death. And they say that focusing on some habits can make a positive difference.
What you eat can influence just about every aspect of heart health, from blood pressure and inflammation to cholesterol levels and triglycerides. So, one of the best things you can do for a strong heart, is to incorporate heart-healthy foods as part of a well-balanced diet.

+ Eat Lots of Fruit & Veg
+ Boost your Fish Intake
+ Limit Alcohol Intake
+ Reduce Salt
+ Don’t Smoke
