Nutrition newsletters - I get a few of these to keep up on what folks are reading. I really like my emailed newsletter from Harvard Medical School's HealthBeat. Today, I received a reminder of how to eat heart healthy away from home. Here is the link to the article: http://view.mail.health.harvard.edu/?j=fe6417707460027c7013&m=febb15747d630d7a&ls=fdcc157077620c797215737466&l=fe57157677630c7b7217&s=fe29167975610374771474&jb=ffcf14&ju=fe2617757660027e711376&r=0

If you don't have access to this link from your app, this is what it contains:

7 tips for heart-healthy eating away from home

Get your copy of Healthy Eating for a Healthy Heart.

Despite major advances in drugs and medical treatments, maintaining a healthy diet, being physically active, and not smoking are still the best approaches to preventing heart disease. Improving your diet lowers your risk for heart disease in many ways, including helping to lower high cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar and insulin levels, as well as preventing obesity and improving the function of your heart and blood vessels. Fortunately, a heart-healthy diet is relatively easy to define, and you don't have to give up great-tasting food to eat for your heart.

Heart-healthy eating is easier to do in your own kitchen - where you have full control over the menu, ingredients, and how you prepare the meal - than it is when someone else is doing the cooking. But with these seven tips, you can stay well within your eating plan, even when dining out.

1. Curb portions. For two people, consider ordering one salad, one appetizer, and one entrée - that will nearly always provide enough food for both of you. When ordering individual meals, set aside some of what is on your plate to bring home for lunch or another dinner.

2. Resist refined carbohydrates. Just as you would at home, go for whole grains and limit white bread, white rice, and other highly processed starches. If the breadbasket is hard to resist, ask your waitperson to remove it from the table.

2. Make smart, colorful choices at the salad bar. Load your plate with plenty of colorful vegetables, fruits, and small amounts of lean protein. Skip the creamy and ranch dressings. Low-fat and fat-free dressings often contain a lot of sugar, so use healthy oils with a splash of vinegar or lemon juice instead.

3. Choose dishes that are grilled, roasted, steamed, or sautéed. This is an easy way to cut down on calories and avoid heart-unfriendly trans fats.

4. Ask for healthier side dishes. Don't be afraid to request a salad, vegetables, or fruit instead of starchy side dishes.

5. Take the opportunity to enjoy some fish. When you eat out, take advantage of having an expert chef doing the cooking and order fish or seafood.

6. Share desserts. If you decide to have dessert, share it with your dining companion(s). Don't ignore heart-healthy choices, such as fresh fruit.

The nutritionist's links are not "hot" on my iPhone pro app. Meaning I have to copy, then paste in a web browser vs. just cli king on the link and the page launching? Am I alone or is this the way it works?
