Foods That Damage Heart Health – Santacruz
Avoid foods that harm your heart! Geetanjali Ahuja Mengi, Santacruz’s best dietitian, guides you on reducing processed, fried & sugary foods for stronger heart health.
Just as some foods protect the heart, others can damage it when consumed in excess. Diets high in processed foods, refined sugars, saturated fats, and trans fats are strongly linked with high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disease.
Deep-fried snacks, packaged chips, bakery items made with refined flour, sugary beverages, and red/processed meats are some of the biggest culprits. These foods increase LDL cholesterol, promote inflammation, and cause arterial blockages over time. Even excessive salt from packaged sauces and instant meals can elevate blood pressure, putting extra strain on the heart.
But completely cutting out favorite foods is often unrealistic, which is why balanced, mindful eating is the key.
In Santacruz, renowned dietitian Geetanjali Ahuja Mengi helps clients identify hidden harmful foods in their daily diets and replace them with healthier alternatives. She provides practical solutions like air-frying instead of deep frying, swapping sugary drinks with infused water, or replacing refined snacks with whole-grain options.
Her personalized plans are designed not to deprive but to create healthier habits that can be maintained long term. Clients report reduced cravings, better cholesterol levels, and improved energy within weeks of following her structured approach.
If you want to protect your heart while still enjoying food, meeting Dietitian Geetanjali Ahuja Mengi in Santacruz can help you understand what to avoid and how to build a heart-healthy lifestyle.
