The Power Of The Grape

Heart-Healthy Living for the Whole Family

A healthy lifestyle, strong heart and fit body and mind are key to a vibrant and energetic life at any age. The good news is that you can give your children a head start by instilling good heart-healthy habits, such as eating right and engaging in daily physical activity.

And remember, savour and enjoy every bite. Gathering around the table as a family to eat a delicious meal can be a great way to take a break from everyone's hectic schedules and spend some quality time together.

One Heart-Healthy Eating Pattern

Experts agree that healthy eating patterns should include the right amount of calories and health-promoting nutrients, without overdoing saturated fat, salt, and added sugar. One way to do this is to follow a Mediterranean-style of eating.

There is no one food or ingredient in this eating pattern that holds the key to good health. Instead it's a combination of simple, wholesome, nutrient-rich foods, flavoured with herbs and spices.

Some ideas to get your family started in a healthy eating pattern

Fruit and vegetables

Eat a rainbow of fruits and vegetables every day. Diets rich in colorful fruits and vegetables provide the broadest range of vitamins, minerals and plant nutrients. And don't forget about blue/purple fruits and veggies, such as Concord grapes, plums, blackberries, blueberries and aubergine.

Whole grain and legumes

At least half of all grain foods you eat should be whole grain and adults should aim to eat 3 cups of legumes per week. A simple way to do this is to add drained and rinsed canned beans, such as kidney beans, black beans, cannellini beans or chickpeas to salads, soups and stews.

Fish

Eat fish often (a few times per week) and red meat, lamb, poultry and eggs more sparingly.

Dairy produce

Include moderate amounts of milk, cheese and yogurt, ideally low-fat and non-fat versions.

Oils

Use healthy oils such as olive or canola oil to prepare and accompany meals, replacing butter and margarine. Use healthy cooking methods, such as grilling, steaming, baking, or roasting.

Wines

Red wine has received a lot of attention for its potential heart-health benefits. But, remember a little goes a long way. These benefits appear to be linked to moderate consumption—up to one 5 oz. glass for women and 2 glasses for men—so watch your portions. For non-drinkers and children, 100% grape juice made with Concord grapes can be a great alternative. For more information on the science behind Concord grapes visit grapescience.com.

Welch's Purple Grape Juice gains seal of approval from HEART UK

H•E•A•R•T UK, a leading cholesterol charity, has officially recognised Welch's Purple Grape Juice for its abundant antioxidant properties and role in promoting heart health. It is the first time a 100% pure and unsweetened juice has received the coveted H•E•A•R•T UK approval.

The recognition by H•E•A•R•T UK follows review of the growing body of data on Welch's Purple Grape Juice which shows many potential health benefits. Research supports drinking American Concord Purple Grape Juice to help promote a healthy heart and healthy arteries. Preliminary research suggests it promotes heart and arterial health in part by protecting LDL, or ‘bad', cholesterol from harmful interaction with free radicals to slow oxidation . Many researchers believe this oxidation of LDL cholesterol contributes to the build-up of plaque in the arteries. Research supports the fact that Welch's Purple Grape Juice not only has potent antioxidant capacity in vivo but in the body as well.
