HOW CAN I HELP?
Regardless of your age, your lifestyle may have an impact on your cholesterol level. Watch your health with three simple steps.
Step 1: Balanced diet
Reduce the intake of saturated fats and trans fats and attack instead:
- Whole grain products instead of white bread / white pasta
- fat-rich fish and lean poultry, rather than industrially processed or red meat
- Nuts, grains or soybeans instead of finished snacks such as chips.
Step 2: Active lifestyle
An active lifestyle helps to increase the "good" cholesterol (HDL) in the blood. It stimulates the movement of fatty deposits of the liver, which helps to keep the heart and the blood vessels in good condition.
Step 3: Strengthen the diet
Dietary fiber and protein source, a portion of Beta Heart® also contains: 1.5 g of beta-glucan, a soluble fiber found in oat bran. This helps to lower or maintain cholesterol levels. *
USE
Simply mix 1 or 2 measuring spoons of Beta Heart® once daily with water, fruit juice or your favorite Formula 1 shake.
Coronary heart disease has several risk factors and the change of a risk factor can or may not have a positive effect.
