Diet Therapy for Coronary Heart Disease
The fundamental conditioning factor in all heart diseases is
the diet, which should be lacto-vegetarian, and low on
sodium and calories. It should consist of high quality, natural
organic foods, with emphasis on wholegrains, seeds, fresh
fruits, and vegetables. Foods which should be eliminated
from the diet include white flour products, sweets,
chocolates, canned foods in syrup, soft drinks, squashes,
tea, coffee, alcohol, and tobacco, and all solid fats of animal
origin such as butter, cream, and fatty meats. Salt and sugar
should be reduced substantially.
