Heart health is one of the top benefits Americans seek from food, yet heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States and close to 90% of Americans fall short on daily recommendations for vegetables, whole grains, and dairy foods and 80% don’t meet the daily recommendation for fruits. While there is no single dietary pattern best suited to every person, there are common traits among a variety of eating patterns and cultural foodways that predict better heart health outcomes.

In this webinar, registered dietitian and co-author of “Cooking à la Heart,” Amy Myrdal Miller, MS, RDN, FAND, presents an exploration of culinary principles and practices focused on food and flavor development strategies to enhance cardiometabolic health. She shares research-based findings and practical tips that will help attendees more confidently address questions related to food choices and culinary nutrition.
