Lower your blood pressure and cholesterol

Reputable medical studies have confirmed that dietary choices affect blood pressure and cholesterol. With the Cardiac Nutrition Package at Rittenhouse Nutrition, you will receive a personalized plan of action to improve heart health. This package begins with a initial nutrition assessment which focuses on an in-depth analysis of your current diet and how it affects your heart health. Additional sessions teach clients about good and bad cholesterol, triglycerides and the effect of saturated fats on cholesterol levels. Clients will also learn how to properly read food labels and how to recognize and avoid high sodium foods. In addition, this plan may help you avoid using medications or reduce the amount of medications you are currently taking. Cardiac specific meal planning advice will be given and your progress will be tracked during the program.
