Having trouble viewing this email? View it as a Web page. Holidays are often filled with festivities, family, friends, and lots of good food. With small changes, you can stay on track and continue healthy eating —even during the holidays!  We have two great resources to help! Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)  The DASH eating plan promotes a heart-healthy eating style for life and gives tips to help you meet your goals around healthy eating. DASH requires no special foods. The plan encourages eating vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fat-free or low-fat dairy products, fish, poultry, beans, nuts, and vegetable oils. It also recommends limiting sugar-sweetened beverages and sweets. DASH provides shopping tips, menus, and recipes to help you plan your meals and snacks to limit foods that are high in saturated fat, such as fatty meats, full-fat dairy products, and tropical oils such as coconut, palm kernel, and palm oils.  Learn More About DASH Here! MyPlate Plan The MyPlate Plan is a personalized food plan based on factors such as your age, height, weight, and physical activity level. It helps you figure out how many calories you need each day and shows what and how much to eat within your calorie allowance. It also provides recipes and videos that you can use to create your personal grocery list and even a cookbook of your favorite recipes!  Looking to can fruit? MyPlate has just what you need!  Learn More About MyPlate Here!  For more Tips for Healthy Eating During the Holidays, visit: Healthier Holidays in 1 – 2 – 3!
