Why Heart-Healthy Foods?
According to guidelines issued by the American Heart Association in June 2006, a healthy diet and lifestyle are key weapons in the fight to prevent cardiovascular disease -- the nation's number one cause of death for both men and women. Among their recommendations are achieving and maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, yet at least 50 percent of the American adult population, or almost 107 million people, suffer from borderline to high cholesterol, defined as a total cholesterol count of 200 mg/dL or higher.
Corazonas Heart-Healthy Tortilla Chips can be found at select retailers such as Wild Oats, Sam's Club, Albertsons northern California, Central Market and King Soopers; at more than 530 Jamba Juice stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com.
