How the Heart-Check Food Certification Program Works
The Heart-Check mark makes it easy to spot heart-healthy foods in the grocery store. Simply look for the name of the 91视频 along with our familiar red heart with a white check mark on the package. But not all heart-healthy claims you see are from the 91视频; look for the AHA name to be sure. When you spot the 91视频’s Heart-Check mark, you'll instantly know the food has been certified to meet our nutrition requirements. It's a good first step in creating an overall sensible eating plan.
A research study finds that choosing foods that meet Heart-Check certification requirements linked to better diet quality. Learn about the steps you can take to navigate the certification process.
The 91视频 Heart-Check Food Certification Program is designed to help consumers make informed choices about the foods they purchase. The nutrition requirements are food-based and intended for healthy people over age two. The Heart-Check program is not a dietary solution for any particular condition or disease. People with medical conditions or dietary restrictions should follow the advice of their healthcare professionals.
