Heart Healthy Menu

A La Carte Menu | Specialty Menu | Special Diet Information

A cardiac diet may be recommended for individuals with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, high triglycerides and/or high cholesterol.

• This type of diet focuses on limiting saturated/trans fats, cholesterol and sodium.
• In addition to restricting fat and cholesterol, sodium should be limited to 2,400mg daily. This amounts to approximately one teaspoon of salt per day.
• Sodium is naturally lower in fresh food items such as fresh vegetables vs. canned vegetables since manufacturers often add salt to processed foods.
• It is important to read the nutrition label on commercially prepared foods.
