The Healthfit Counter
is a great tool for anyone who has had a heart attack,
high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or history of heart
related problems.
The Healthfit Counter will help keep a record of how much fat,
saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium a person has eaten
in one day. The Healthfit Counter will maintain a record for
each day, week, month enabling you to monitor your performance.
Heart Attacks and Strokes are one of the nations leading
causes of death, diet plays an important part in preventing
both. Both diseases are the result of plaque buildup on
the artery walls, which can be caused from a high fat
diet. Diets that are high in total fat, saturated fat,
and cholesterol may cause a rise in your blood cholesterol
that can result in plaque buildup and increase the risk
of heart attack, stroke etc.
Fiber is an important nutrient that can help lower the
risk of cardiovascular disease. Most Americans consume
only 10-12 grams of dietary fiber per day which is half
the recommended amount. The Healthfit Counter can help provide
guidance to ensure that a low-fat, high fiber diet is
followed to help prevent cardiovascular disease.
Hypertension (high blood pressure) is
known as the silent killer because it doesn't have obvious
symptoms. Reducing the amount of sodium in the diet
can help bring the blood pressure down. The Healthfit Counter
can help you keep track of your daily sodium intake
and also help you identify very high sodium foods. Most
foods contain some amount of sodium but those over 300
mg. per serving are considered high sodium foods and
the Healthfit Counter has that information pre-programmed
in it's memory!
How
it works: The Healthfit Counter
is an electronic calorie counter and has over 2,300
food items stored in memory. You can call up foods that
you eat and save the nutritional information into daily
totals for each of the nine nutritional categories.
In addition the Healthfit Counter
lets you store an additional 400 food items, so if any
food items you eat regularly are not already built in,
then you can add them.
At any time of the day, you can use
your Healthfit Counter electronic calorie calculator to find
out how many calories, fats, cholesterol, carbohydrates,
sugar, sodium, fiber and protein you have had for
that day. This is especially helpful if you have ANY
dietary restrictions or need to monitor your intake
of certain food items.
