Health Note

July 2016

Most people eat much more sodium (salt) than they need. This can lead to health problems like high blood pressure. In the month of July as your summer celebrations begin, The Centers for Disease Control reminds us to eat low-sodium foods, especially if you have diabetes or high blood pressure. To lower the amount of sodium in your diet, follow these shopping tips: •

Choose fresh instead of processed foods when you can



Use the Nutrition Facts label to check the sodium content



Look for foods with 5% Daily Value (DV) or less - sodium content of 20% DV or more is high



Look for foods labeled “low sodium,” “reduced sodium,” or “no salt added”

Take the list below with you the next time you go food shopping. Vegetables and Fruits

Dairy Products

Get plenty of vegetables and fruits.

Choose fat free or low-fat milk and yogurt. Be sure to check the label on cheese, which can be high in sodium. Milk and yogurt are also good sources of potassium, which can help lower blood pressure.

• • • • • • •

Any fresh fruits, like apples, oranges, or bananas Any fresh vegetables, like spinach, carrots, or broccoli Frozen vegetables without added sauce Canned vegetables that are low in sodium or have no salt added Low sodium vegetable juice Frozen or dried fruit (unsweetened) Canned fruit (packed in water or 100% juice, not syrup)

Breads, Cereals, and Grains When you cook rice or pasta, don’t add salt. • • •

Rice or pasta Unsweetened oatmeal Unsalted popcorn

Tip: If your food comes with a seasoning packet, use only part of the packet. This will lower the amount of sodium in the food.

• • • •

Fat free or low-fat (1%) milk Fat free or low-fat yogurt Low or reduced sodium cheese (like natural Swiss cheese) Soymilk with added calcium

Dressings, Oils, and Condiments When you cook, use ingredients that are low in sodium or have no sodium at all. Unsalted margarine and spreads (soft, tub, or liquid) with no trans fats • • • •

Vegetable oils (canola, olive, peanut, or sesame) Sodium free, light mayonnaise and salad dressing Low sodium or “no salt added” ketchup Vinegar

Seasonings

Meats, Nuts, and Beans

Try these seasonings instead of salt to flavor your food.

Choose fresh meats when possible. Some fresh meat has added sodium, so always check the label.

• •

• • • • • •

• •



Fish or shellfish Chicken or turkey breast without skin Lean cuts of beef or pork Unsalted nuts and seeds Dried peas and beans Canned beans labeled “no salt added” or “low sodium” Eggs

Herbs, spices, or salt free seasoning blends Chopped vegetables, like garlic, onions, and peppers Lemons and limes Ginger

We hope you fill your shopping cart with wholesome low-sodium food to stay healthy and energized all summer long. (http://healthfinder.gov)

Nota para Su Salud

julio 2016

La mayoría de las personas consumen mucho más sodio (sal) del que necesitan. Esto puede llevar a problemas de salud, como la presión arterial alta. En el mes de julio, cuando las celebraciones del verano comienzan, Los Centros de Control de Enfermedades, nos recuerda elegir comidas bajas en sodio, especialmente si usted tiene diabetes o la presión arterial alta. Si quiere reducir la cantidad de sodio en su alimentación, sigua estos consejos cuando vaya al mercado: Cuando pueda, elija alimentos frescos en lugar de procesados Use la etiqueta de información nutricional para ver la cantidad de sodio que contiene cada alimento • Busque alimentos con el 5% o menos del valor diario recomendado de sodio (DV, por sus siglas en inglés) - alimentos con 20% de sodio o más contiene mucho sodio. • Busque alimentos cuya etiqueta indique que contienen poco sodio (low sodium) o menos sodio (reduced sodium), o que no tienen sal adicional (no salt added). • •

Lleve la siguiente lista a mano la próxima vez que vaya al mercado. Verduras y frutas

Leche y productos lácteos

Compre abundantes frutas y verduras.

Opte por leche y yogur descremados o semidescremados. Lea la etiqueta del queso, ya que este puede contener mucho sodio. La leche y el yogur también son buenas fuentes de potasio, que puede reducir la presión arterial.

• • • • • • •

Cualquier fruta fresca, como manzanas, naranjas o plátanos Cualquier verdura fresca, como espinaca, zanahorias o brócoli Verduras congeladas sin salsas adicionales Verduras enlatadas que contengan poco sodio o no tengan sal adicional Jugo de verduras con poco sodio Frutas congeladas o secas (sin endulzar) Frutas enlatadas (en agua o en jugo al 100% en vez de almíbar)

Panes, cereales y granos

• • • •

Aderezos, aceites y condimentos Cuando prepare los alimentos, use ingredientes que contengan poco o nada de sodio. •

Compare las etiquetas para encontrar productos que tengan menos sodio. • • • • •

Cuando cocine arroz o pastas, no le agregue sal. Pasta o arroz Avena sin dulce Palomitas de maíz sin sal Consejo: Si el alimento trae un paquete de especias, use solo una parte del paquete para reducir la cantidad de sodio.

Carnes, nueces y frijoles Elija carnes frescas cada vez que pueda. Algunas carnes frescas tienen sodio adicional; por eso siempre debe leer la etiqueta. • • • • • • •

Pescados o mariscos Pechuga de pollo o de pavo sin pellejo Cortes magros de carne de res o de cerdo Nueces y semillas sin sal Chícharos (alverjas) y frijoles secos Frijoles enlatados sin sal adicional o con poco sodio Huevos

Leche descremada o semidescremada (al 1%) Yogur descremado o semidescremado Queso con poco sodio o con menos sodio (como el queso suizo natural) Leche de soya enriquecida con calcio

• • • •

Margarina, aceites semisólidos (en barra o en crema) o aceites líquidos que no contengan sal ni grasas trans Aceites vegetales (colza [canola], oliva, ajonjolí, cacahuate [maní]) Aderezos para ensaladas y mayonesa con bajo contenido de grasa, sin sodio Salsa de tomate (kétchup) con poco sodio o sin sal adicional Vinagre

Sazonadores Para darle sabor a la comida, cocine con estos sazones en lugar de la sal. • • • •

Hierbas, especias o sazones sin sal Verduras picadas (ajos, cebolla y pimiento) Limas y limones Jengibre

Esperamos llene su carrito de alimentos que le ayuden a mantenerse saludable y con energía todos los días del verano. (http://healthfinder.gov)
