Reduce Cardiac Risk Through Better Nutrition
Heart disease affects everyday life in quiet ways. Clients may not realize how much their food choices matter, and changing long-held habits can feel overwhelming. Even with good intentions, it’s hard to follow a heart-healthy diet without clear guidance and encouragement.
The Optimizing Nutrition for Clients with Cardiovascular Disease course was created to help caregivers step into that role with confidence. In just 30 minutes, caregivers learn how nutrition supports heart health, which foods help manage cholesterol, and how to prepare meals that are lower in salt, fat, and cholesterol—without taking enjoyment out of eating. The course also shares simple ways to support healthier routines day to day.
With the right tools, caregivers can make a real difference. Clients feel supported instead of restricted, healthy habits become easier to follow, and small daily choices add up to better outcomes. This training helps caregivers turn everyday meals into meaningful heart care—calmly, consistently, and with care.
