I am a big fan of keeping my heart healthy. You may be interested to know that the heart, brain, and nerves in the body have lots of lecithin in them. Lecithin is a food supplement, and can be derived from soy beans. I have found that my heart is healthier when I add two tablespoons of lecithin to my oatmeal or wheat cereal for breakfast. My heart, at age 66, is in great shape.

The best BEST buttery spread around. Chock full of Omega fatty acids, zero trans fat and zero cholesterol. Olive oil base is perfect for folks obsessed with the Mediterranean diet.

But hey Zeer, it's Lee Iacocca. Although I'm sure Mr. Lacocca is a nice guy.

Fage Total Greek Strained Yogurt

in the Healthy Hearts community.

Did you know that Greek yogurt has more protein than traditional yogurt. This brand has flavors that are fat free and low fat. It has a different texture than regular yogurt. It is so yummy with just honey mixed in or fresh fruit.

For people trying to get in that daily yogurt dose why not choose Greek yogurt? That way you are getting a major protein boost with low or no fat.

This brand is my favorite. I also enjoy the Trader Joes and Stonyfield brands.

Check it out! It's a little more expensive, but is so worth it. You can even use the plain in the place of sour cream in a dip or as a topping.

Enjoy!
