Tips for you:

Limit salt, saturated fat and sugar

• Consider purchasing products which have the Heart Mark, such as NESTLÉ IDEAL Unsweetened Evaporated Milk. It’s a guaranteed way to buy food lower in salt, lower in sugar, lower in saturated fats, and higher in fibre.

• Ditch fast foods as these contain high sodium and saturated fats. Instead, cook fresh balanced family meals which include vegetables, lean proteins and grains or starches.

• Skip adding salt when cooking. Remove the shaker from the dinner table and replace with fresh herbs and spices. Try garlic, no added salt tomato paste, lemon juice or vinegar to flavour your food.

• In sandwiches, use canned fish or cook a little extra meat or chicken when preparing your main meal, instead of deli meats as these contain high salt and saturated fats.

• Limit sugary drinks and avoid adding additional sugar to foods i.e. cereals.

Reduce your portion sizes

• Help limit portion sizes by plating up your family’s meals. Remember that ½ plate should include vegetables, ¼ plate lean protein and ¼ plate grains/starches.

• Swop large dinner plates with smaller side plates as this can also help reduce your portion sizes.
