Good Fats are a Go for American Heart Month

Home / Health Professionals / Nutrition Articles for Health Professionals / Good Fats are a Go for American Heart Month
Share

American Heart Month is the perfect time to dispel the myths about dietary fat. You may be surprised to learn that only 40% of consumers view unsaturated fats as healthy, and that they’re often confused when it comes to good vs. bad fats and the foods that contain them.1

Wish you had a turn-key resource to help set the record straight?

Look no further, we’ve got you covered with our brand new Good Fats Workbook. We developed this guide with all good fats in mind and in it include helpful definitions, examples, research summaries and takeaway resources.

Plus, we’ve made it interactive, giving you and your client space to jot down notes and walk through pre-prepped questions. We know you can connect the dietary fat dots on this one.

Download it here.

 

Want to sharpen your own stuff?

The American Heart Association, recently launched a CME course for health professionals, titled “The Facts on Fats – How They Fit Into Healthy Eating.” The course focuses on recommendations for heart-healthy eating patterns, with an emphasis on dietary fat. It discusses the health effects and food sources of different types of fats, as well as responses to questions and controversies about fats.

The 60-minute course is free to register, and you can sign up here.
