❤️ Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day... I like to have breakfast at breakfast time, breakfast at lunch time, and breakfast for supper! Mmmm... brupper!

And one of my favourite breakfast foods is EGGS! I love to eat eggs on toast with avocado and thyme. Deee-lish!

Have you been told you need to avoid eggs, or only allow one or two per week?

Do you limit your egg intake, and gaze longingly at the egg carton while taking your overnight oats out of the fridge?

Or perhaps you don't have that kind of relationship with eggs but you wonder how many eggs are ok?

❤️ How many eggs ARE ok for heart health?

While traditionally eggs have been villainized for their high cholesterol content and supposed detrimental effects on cardiovascular health, recent research finds that many people eating 3-6 eggs per week have reduced overall risk of cardiovascular disease and lower blood pressure compared with people eating no eggs.

*It is important to note that the association of egg consumption with incident cardiovascular disease may vary according to the overall dietary patterns (such as total saturated fat, sodium and carbohydrate intake).

❤️Did you know that consuming flavonoids may reduce your risk of heart disease?

Flavonoids are a component in many plant foods that when consumed in sufficient amounts may be associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease.

There are several types of flavonoids:

Flavonols, including quercetin, kaempferol, and myricetin
🧅🍅found in onions, kale, grapes and red wine, tea, peaches, berries, tomatoes, lettuce.
Flavones
🌿found in celery, parsley, red peppers, chamomile, mint.
Flavan-3-ols, including proanthocyanidins
🍎🍇found in berries, grapes, red cabbage, apples (in the skin).
Anthocyanins
🍒🫐found in blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries, red cabbage, cranberries, cherries.
Flavanones
🍋found in Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons, and limes.
Isoflavones
🥢found in soy, pulses/legumes (lentils, beans and peas).

Research finds that consuming specific flavonoids may have beneficial cardioprotective effects:

❤️proanthocyanidins may reduce blood pressure
❤️flavonols may lower blood pressure and fasting glucose and increase HDL
❤️anthocyanins may lower LDL, ApoB and inflammatory markers and increase HDL
❤️isoflavones may lower blood pressure in people with hypertension and improve arterial stiffness, reducing the incidence of plaque buildup

❤️Did you know that approximately 50% of North American adults have a form of heart disease?

That means that if you pull two people off the street, one of them will have one or more of:

💔Coronary artery disease
💔Arrhythmia (irregular heart beating)
💔Structural heart disease
💔Heart failure

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in North American adults. Heart disease can be caused by:

❤️high cholesterol levels
❤️uncontrolled blood pressure
❤️diabetes
❤️sleep apnea
❤️physical inactivity
❤️smoking or too much alcohol
❤️stress
❤️too much body fat

Today I’m dressed for to raise awareness of cardiovascular disease.

Make an appointment with your doctor to find out about your risks, and know your numbers! Ask your doctor for a copy of your report so you know if your numbers are optimal, or if you’re borderline or within the high or at-risk ranges.

❤️ Are you eating enough potassium 🍌🍌 for your heart health?

Perhaps you follow your doctor’s low salt, low fat diet advice. Maybe it’s made a difference, but maybe you’re not seeing your blood pressure improving as much as you would like?

If you’re not paying attention to your potassium intake, that could explain it.

Potassium can reduce your risk of heart attack & stroke.
❤️ helping with blood pressure control via:
❤️ increasing SODIUM excretion through urine
❤️ easing tension in BLOOD VESSEL walls

Is it possible to consume too much potassium?

If no condition exists that requires a limit on potassium intake (such as kidney disease), most people don’t need to worry about consuming too much potassium from FOOD.

It is possible to consume too much potassium from supplements, including salt substitutes and supplement tablets.

❤️ Got high blood pressure? ❤️

Beware these commonly consumed foods! 🙅

Most people should be aiming for a daily maximum of 1500-2300mg of sodium per day.

There is naturally occurring sodium in foods like fruit and vegetables, fish, and meat- and that’s ok! If we eat foods prepared from scratch most often, it’s easy to stay below the maximum recommendation.

But when we consume prepared foods we start increasing our salt intake- sometimes very quickly!

Make sure to read nutrition labels and ingredients lists, and choose foods that are prepared without added salt (look for “no salt added”), that have little added salt (“low sodium”), or are plain or raw like unsalted raw nuts and seeds, plain chicken breasts and fish fillets, legumes, and fresh or frozen fruit and vegetables.

Are you a die-hard rye bread or white bread fan?

❤️ Then save this post!

Did you know that rye bread is not much better than white bread nutritionally?!

Try swapping out your rye or white bread for a cholesterol-lowering, blood sugar-controlling, high-fibre whole grain bread.

I recommend Silver Hills Sprouted Grains bread , a “family-owned Canadian bakery with 30 years of expertise crafting delicious, sprouted, organic, non-GMO breads, buns & bagels.”

If you’re not in Canada or don’t have access to Silver Hills products, you can choose other high fibre alternatives. Look for 100% whole grain in the ingredients list, and 4g or more of fibre per slice in the Nutrition Facts Table.

What’s your favourite high-fibre bread? Comment below!👇
