DIET FOR PATIENT WITH HEART DISEASES
DISEASE THERAPEUTIC DIET
1. Arrhythmia  An arrhythmia is a problem with
the heartbeat's pace or rhythm.
Arrhythmias cause the heart to
beat too quickly, too slowly, or in
an erratic pattern. Tachycardia is
a disorder in which the heart
beats very quickly. Bradycardia is
a disorder in which the heart
beats too slowly.
 The American Heart Association
(AHA) advises people with
Arrhythmia to eat meals low in
saturated fats, trans fats, salt,
and cholesterol. According to a
2017 review, a plant-based diet
rich in fruits, vegetables, and
whole grains will reduce obesity
and hypertension. Since these
are risk factors for Arrhythmia,
such dietary changes can help
anyone avoid developing the
condition.

5. Hypertension  Hypertension, also known simply
as "high blood pressure" is very
common, however can lead to
many significant complications if
left uncontrolled. When the
blood pressure is elevated, the
force the blood puts on the walls
of the arteries is high and can
lead to artery damage. Also,
when the heart muscle has to
pump blood against a high blood
pressure, it thickens and
enlarges, just like any muscle
does when it has to do more
work (think of a weight lifter).
 The best way for most people to
control their high blood pressure
is to maintain a healthy weight,
exercise, take their hypertension
medications, and reduce the
stress in their lives. They should
also quit smoking, avoid
secondhand smoke, and limit
alcohol consumption.

 DIET FOR PATIENT WITH DISEASES OF THE ARTERIES
DISEASE THERAPEUTIC DIET
1. Peripheral Artery  Mediterranean diet, olive oil,
Disease nuts, fish, grains, fruits and
vegetables form the core of your
eating plan.
 New research published today in
JAMA shows that a
Mediterranean diet can also cut
your risk for another heart
condition, peripheral arterial
disease, or PAD.
 Limit unhealthy fats and sodium

BREAKFAST: Nutrition and Dietetics Law of

water
DINNER:
 1 pc trout
 1 cup oats
 3 pc strawberries water

 Avoid sugary and processed

foods

 Eat a variety of fruits and

vegetables

 Choose whole grains

 Choose low-fat protein sources,

like skinless, chicken and fish.

 Choose skim or low-fat dairy

products

2. Carotid Artery  Choose high-fiber foods, such as BREAKFAST: Act for Salt Iodization
Disease whole-grain breads, pastas,  1 cup nuts Nationwide (ASIN Law)
 cereals, and crackers. Eat lean  1 cup coffee
meats and skinless chicken and  3 pcs small pandesal Food Fortification Act
turkey. Eat fish twice a week. Fish
is good for your arteries. LUNCH:
 1 cup pomegranate juice
 Stock up on Plenty of Fruits and  1 pc orange
Veggies  1 pc mackerel
 1 cup brown rice
 Fresh, non-starchy produce is the
star of this diet. DINNER:
 1 cup boiled broccoli
 Eat 5 to 10 servings a day (a half-  1 cup brown rice water
cup cooked or 1 cup raw equals
one serving).

 Choose Healthy Fats

- Olives and their oil are

cornerstones; go for four to six
servings per day (a serving could
be 1 tsp. of olive oil, 5 olives or
1/8 of an avocado). Olive oil
delivers healthy
monounsaturated fats and plant
compounds called polyphenols.

 Fill up on Seeds, Nuts & Legumes

- These are a great source of fiber

and protein; nuts and seeds also
provide healthy fats and
antioxidants.

 Focus on Eggs & Fish

- Aim to eat a 4-oz. serving of fish
(about the size of a checkbook)
two to three times a week. Eggs
are also on the menu: Whip them
into a vegetable frittata. Lean
meat and poultry are ok, too, in
moderation.

 Have (a little) Dairy

- Work in dairy from cultured milk

(kefir, yogurt, fresh curd cheeses
like ricotta); it's easier to digest
and supplies beneficial bacteria
that contribute to digestive
health. Enjoy one to three
servings daily (a serving is 1 cup
of milk or yogurt or 1 oz. of
cheese).

 Opt for Whole Grains

- Refined carbs lack nutrients and

can wreak havoc on your blood
sugar. Whole grains are best;
have four small daily portions of
whole-wheat bread, or try pasta
made from quinoa. And always
eat grains with healthy fats and
protein. Incorporate sprouted or
fermented grains (hello,
sourdough!) for easier digestion
and better nutrient absorption.
 - Or look for creative ways to swap
out grains, such as using
spaghetti squash in place of
noodles.

 Use Plenty of Herbs and Spices

 They're full of plant compounds

with antioxidant and
inflammation-fighting effects.

 Drink Wisely

 Make water a go-to. Many

Mediterranean’s sip espresso
after meals to aid digestion. In
North Africa, they choose
antioxidant-rich green tea
combined with mint for the same
reason.

3. Abdominal Aortic  Reduce the amount of sodium
Aneurysm and cholesterol in your diet. And
eat lean meats, lots of fruits and
vegetables, and whole grains.
Avoid strenuous activities. Things
like shoveling snow, chopping
wood, and lifting heavy weights
can actually put strain on an
existing aneurysm.
 Reduce the amount of salt
(sodium) you take into your

 body. Anything sold in a jar (e.g.  1 slice tuna fish water
pickles), can (e.g. canned
vegetables), or a bag (e.g. chips)
tends to be high in salt. Limit the
amount of sodium you take in
each day to less than 2,300
milligrams. You can track this by
reading food labels. Many
products now have low-salt
versions, and there are also
substitutes for table salt available
in stores. Adopt a healthy diet
rich in fruits and vegetables, and
low in cholesterol and saturated
fats. This will help control your
blood pressure as well as your
cholesterol levels. It also will
decrease the risk of aneurysm
complications.

legumes, milk, nuts, potatoes,
seeds, tomato products and
yogurt
