February is Heart Health Month and OSF Saint Luke Medical Center Dietitian Sara Umphleet was our guest on Wake Up Tri-Counties on Monday. Diet is a huge component of heart health. Having a healthy diet can help keep your heart healthy for a long time to come. But what is a healthy diet? Sara Umphleet was kind enough to bring along a quiz that she wrote about what kind of diet could be considered heart healthy. Some things you are probably aware of like cutting back on salt or eating more fruits and vegetables. Some aspects of healthy eating however, are less obvious like knowing the difference between good and bad cholesterol or how to find out if you’re favorite snack comes with the unfortunate inclusion of Trans-Fats. Find out about eating healthy in our Wake Up Tri-Counties Interview with Dietitian Sara Umphleet from OSF Saint Luke Medical Center.
