. HOW TO STAY HEALTHY

1. __________________
People who eat a lot of fruit and vegetables
are less likely to have heart problems. You
should eat at least five portions of fruit and
vegetables a day. One portion is e.g. a ba-
nana, an apple, one slice of melon or pine-
apple or two plums. Remember that pota-
toes are not included on that list.
2. _________________
Eating too much salt can raise your blood
pressure. And people with high blood pres-
sure are three times more likely to develop
heart disease or have a stroke than people
with normal blood pressure. Three-quarters
(75%) of the salt we eat is already in the
food we buy, such as breakfast cereals,
soups, sauces and ready meals. So you
could easily be eating too much salt without
realising it.
