What does love motivate you to do? Work to support your family, or stay up late to help a friend? What does love motivate you to do for yourself? Let me encourage you this month to love your heart – it needs you. It may be time to have a serious look at those cholesterol or blood pressure numbers to see if they could use some attention. Make your heart your true love by caring for it the way no one else can with these red heart-healthy fruits and veggies: apples, red grapes, red pears, watermelon, strawberries, red onion, and tomatoes. Red fruits and veggies contain nutrients such as lycopene, ellagic acid, quercetin and hesperidin. These nutrients help lower blood pressure, reduce LDL cholesterol, scavenge free-radicals, reduce the risk of prostate cancer and relieve arthritis pain. Go Red!
