Intending to improve heart health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, the American Heart Association—in collaboration with a panel of dietitians, nutrition researchers and physicians—has released tips for heart health nutrition in its new Dietary Guidance to Improve Cardiovascular Health.

Included are these 10 guiding principles:

1. Adjust energy intake and expenditure to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.
2. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables; choose a wide variety.
3. Choose foods made mostly with whole grains rather than refined grains.
4. Choose healthy sources of protein, such as fish and seafood, low-fat or fat-free dairy products (instead of full-fat versions), and lean cuts of meat or poultry.
5. Use liquid plant oils rather than tropical oils (coconut, palm, and palm kernel), animal fats (e.g., butter and lard), and partially hydrogenated fats.
6. Choose minimally processed foods instead of ultraprocessed foods.
7. Minimize intake of beverages and foods with added sugars.
8. Choose and prepare foods with little or no salt.
9. If you do not drink alcohol, do not start; if you choose to drink alcohol, limit intake.
10. Adhere to this guidance regardless of where food is prepared or consumed. Whether dining out, ordering in, or cooking from scratch, these same tips still apply.
