Top Ten Tips for Choosing Heart-Healthy Snacks

2 years ago by tims Leave a Comment

Maintaining a healthy heart requires a balanced diet and regular exercise. One way to promote heart health is by making healthy snack choices. Snacking is a great way to curb hunger between meals and prevent overeating during meals. However, not all snacks are created equal. Here are our top ten tips for choosing heart-healthy snacks.

1. Choose whole foods

Whole foods are foods that are minimally processed and contain no added sugars or fats. These foods are typically high in nutrients and low in calories. Some examples of whole foods include fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. These foods are great choices for snacking because they are nutrient-dense and can help keep you feeling full and satisfied.

2. Look for snacks high in fiber

Fiber is an important nutrient for heart health. It helps to lower cholesterol levels and regulate blood sugar levels. Snacks that are high in fiber can help you feel full and satisfied for longer periods of time. Some high-fiber snack options include fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grain crackers, and nuts.

3. Avoid processed foods

Processed foods are often high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, and sodium. These foods can contribute to weight gain, high blood pressure, and other health problems. Examples of processed foods include chips, cookies, and candy. Instead of choosing these snacks, opt for whole foods or minimally processed snacks.

4. Watch your portion sizes

Even healthy snacks can be high in calories if consumed in large quantities. It’s important to watch your portion sizes when snacking. One serving of nuts is typically a small handful, while one serving of fruit is about the size of a tennis ball. Use measuring cups or a food scale to help you determine the appropriate portion size for your snacks.

Related: Are You Eating Enough Fiber for Heart Health?

5. Choose snacks that are low in sodium

Excess sodium intake can contribute to high blood pressure, which is a risk factor for heart disease. When choosing snacks, look for options that are low in sodium. Some examples of low-sodium snacks include fresh fruits and vegetables, unsalted nuts, and low-sodium crackers.

6. Opt for healthy fats

Not all fats are bad for your heart. Healthy fats, such as those found in nuts and seeds, can actually improve heart health. These fats can help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Other sources of healthy fats include avocado and olive oil.

7. Plan ahead

Planning ahead can help you make healthier snack choices. When you’re hungry and in a rush, it can be easy to reach for unhealthy snack options. Plan your snacks ahead of time and keep them on hand so you always have a healthy option available.

8. Read those labels

As food companies work to provide healthier snacks, consumers need to look beyond terms like “healthy” or “natural” on the label. That “healthy” nutrition bar might have more calories than a candy bar. Also check for added sugars and high levels of sodium.

9. Watch the beverages

Drinks count as you keep track of between-meal calories. Many people are aware of the calories in soda but might overlook what’s in juice or their coffee drink. Consider options such as plain or sparkling water, unsweetened tea or coffee, or a small glass of 100% fruit juice.

10. Beware the break room

A 2019 study in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics indicated that people commonly consumed food provided by vending machines, company cafeterias and friendly employers or colleagues – and that added an average of 1,300 calories to workers’ weekly totals. So if you work outside the home, consider taking your own healthy snacks with you.

Choosing heart-healthy snacks is an important part of maintaining a healthy heart. By choosing whole foods, high-fiber snacks, and healthy fats, you can promote heart health and reduce your risk of heart disease. Remember to watch your portion sizes and avoid processed foods as much as possible. With a little planning and preparation, you can make snacking a healthy part of your diet.

How IV Certification Can Benefit Your Career

3 years ago by tims Leave a Comment

Whether you are new to the medical field, a long-practicing RN or LPN, or a healthcare professional wanting to learn new skills, an IV training course can give your career a boost. This is why HeartCert offers IV certification classes alongside our portfolio of CPR, CNA, and healthcare training courses.

There are many ways in which IV certification can help your career. Here are just a few.

4 Career Benefits of IV Certification

1. Employment Opportunities

Becoming certified in IV therapy will make you a more skilled – and, therefore, more valuable– employee. It will also allow you to work in more and different healthcare settings.

2. Salary and Pay

Similarly, having more skills will make you a more desirable employee, which often leads to more pay. In addition, you may be able to specialize in vascular therapy. This position tends to have a higher salary than a RN or LPN.

3. Licensing

Each HeartCert IV training course comes with a certificate of completion that can be submitted for continuing education credits.

4. Confidence

IV skills are used in a variety of settings across the healthcare field. By obtaining IV therapy certification, you’ll be more confident in your skills, no matter where you work.

Four Reasons to Learn CPR

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

If you don’t work in healthcare, or with children or vulnerable adults, or in any other setting in which CPR training is required, it may seem like there is no real reason to learn CPR. But that’s not the case. There is a very real need for laypeople to be trained in CPR and ready to perform it should they encounter a person in cardiac arrest or distress.

reasons to learn CPR — photo credit: @artisticoperations-4161274 accessed 7/1/22 via CC0

Here are a few of the many reasons why you should take a CPR/AED training course.

Why Should I Learn CPR?

1. Most Cardiac Arrests Happen at Home

More than 85 percent of cardiac arrests take place in the home. With more than 300,000 instances of cardiac arrest every year in the U.S., there is a significant likelihood that you may need CPR to save the life of your parent, spouse, or other family member.

2. CPR Protects Against Long-Term Disability

Performing CPR immediately following cardiac arrest helps blood circulate until emergency responders arrive. This protects vital organs, including the brain, from significant damage.

3. More Bystander CPR is Needed

Bystander CPR – when CPR is performed by a layperson outside of a healthcare setting – is performed in fewer than half of all cardiac arrests in the U.S. Many more lives could be saved if more people were trained and ready to perform CPR when needed.

4. It’s Easy to Learn CPR

CPR training courses are more accessible than ever. With in-person, virtual, and private options, you can learn CPR on your schedule and in just a few hours.

HeartCert CPR is your trusted training partner for CPR, ACLS, PALS, EMR, First Aid, CNA, IV, EKG and more.

We are now offering virtual CPR courses and certifications. We continue to offer safe in-person courses at all HeartCert locations throughout the United States, including our headquarters, HeartCert CPR Eagan.

Which States Mandate CPR Training in Schools?

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

When it comes to CPR, there are three known facts. First, when CPR is performed immediately after cardiac arrest, it doubles or even triples the chances of survival. Second, that occurs in less than 10 percent of cardiac arrests that occur outside of a hospital setting. Third, CPR training increases the likelihood that a bystander will be ready and able to perform CPR when the need arises. This lifesaving opportunity is the driving force behind the American Heart Association’s CPR in Schools program.

What is CPR in Schools?

CPR in Schools is an initiative from the American Heart Association to train students in CPR, AED use, and choking relief. The training is specifically aimed at young learners, and was designed to be completed in just one class period. It comes with a toolkit that can train 10 to 20 students at once. Training can be repurposed for different classes and grade levels.

Schedule On-Site CPR Training with HeartCert

Does Your State Mandate CPR Training in School?

About 10 years ago, there was a significant effort to mandate CPR training as part of high school graduation requirements. Today, the majority of states have enacted laws requiring CPR education in schools.

In HeartCert’s home state of Minnesota, for example, students must take part in CPR training in order to graduate from high school. School districts are required to provide a onetime CPR and AED training to students at some point between grades 7 and 12.

Schools are not required to use the AHA’s CPR in Schools materials. They can set up training from a local provider such as HeartCert. Learn more about our on-site CPR/AED training options here.

HeartCert CPR is your trusted training partner for CPR. We also train in ACLS, PALS, EMR, First Aid, CNA, IV, EKG and more, in Minnesota and throughout the United States.

EKG Training Now Available Through HeartCert

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

HeartCert recently launched a new course intended to teach and refresh essential skills to healthcare workers. Our new EKG/ECG Rhythm Interpretation Training Class will help providers learn how to quickly and accurately read and interpret EKG heart rhythms. The EKG training course will be useful for workers across healthcare, in a variety of roles settings.

What is EKG Training?

EKG or ECG is short for electrocardiogram. It is a common test used to monitor heart health and detect any problems with heart rhythms. EKGs are present in medical clinics and hospitals, as well as operating rooms and even ambulances. Because electrocardiograms are done so frequently, it’s important for all healthcare providers to be able to accurately monitor EKG results.

EKGs are often performed in emergency settings, so providers need to be able to read and interpret results fast. This is why EKG training is so important, for new and experienced providers alike.

Register for the HeartCert EKG/ECG Training Course

In our EKG course, you will learn how to quickly read and interpret EKG heart rhythms, or hone existing skills so you can read EKGs greater speed and accuracy.

The HeartCert EKG/ECG Rhythm Interpretation Training Class is fully virtual and accessible to providers across the country. CEU certification is included in the course fee.

Learn more about our EKG/ECG course here, and contact us with any questions.

HeartCert CPR is your trusted training partner for CPR, ACLS, PALS, EMR, First Aid, CNA, IV, EKG and more, in Minnesota and throughout the United States.

HeartCert Offers Free CPR Training

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

HeartCert was founded with the mission of making CPR training more available and accessible – and, in doing so, saving more lives. Now, in an effort to further that mission and improve bystander CPR rates, we’re excited to announce that we’re offering free CPR training!

What is Bystander CPR?

The term “bystander CPR” refers to lifesaving CPR, AED, and first aid procedures that are performed by a layperson in a public or private setting. Generally, bystander CPR takes place outside of a hospital or medical facility.

Why is Bystander CPR Important?

According to the American Heart Association, more than 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside of a hospital setting every year in the U.S. A staggering 90 percent of people who suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest do not survive. But when CPR is performed immediately upon cardiac arrest, survival chances double or even triple. Put simply: bystander CPR saves lives!

Free CPR Training with HeartCert

There are many barriers to performing bystander CPR, and lack of accessible training is one of them. This is why HeartCert is offering free CPR training for anyone who is interested.

In these free training courses, you will learn the basics of CPR, AED use, and first aid at no cost. These courses are only informational, and attendees will not receive a certification. (If you need CPR certification, check out one of our other in-person, virtual, or private CPR course options.)

Actor Says CPR, AED Saved His Life

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

When actor Bob Odenkirk collapsed on the set of his television show “Better Caul Saul” in the summer of 2021, his co-stars immediately called for help. The show’s health officer rushed over and began performing CPR. In interviews a few months later, Odenkirk credited that quick response, the use of an AED, and his recent physical activity for saving his life.

actor saved by CPR — photo credit: @mikhail-nilov accessed 4/10/22 via CC0

Actor Credits CPR For Saving His Life

Odenkirk says he suffered a “heart-related incident” and collapsed on set in July 2021. The on-set health officer performed CPR for 12 minutes. She then asked another person to take over, while she retrieved and administered an AED, or automated external defibrillator.

Odenkirk had to be shocked with the AED three times before his heart resumed its rhythm. His representatives later told the media that he was in stable condition.

In interviews, Odenkirk credits the quick action of his co-stars and the health officer in immediately starting CPR and using the AED when appropriate. He also says that he had recently increased his physical activity and stamina while training for a movie role. Not only did this improve the health of his cardiovascular system, but it made CPR more effective. He believes it also made recovery easier.

Odenkirk is fortunate that he had someone on set who was trained in CPR and AED use. The majority of people who suffer a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting don’t fare so well. This is why CPR training is so important. You could save a life! Register for a HeartCert CPR course today.

Introducing a Private CPR Training Option

3 years ago by bwadmin Leave a Comment

HeartCert is excited to introduce a new, one-of-a-kind CPR training option. Our private CPR course allows you to choose a time that works for your schedule. CPR certification has never been easier!

Why We Launched Our Private CPR Course

There’s no question that CPR saves lives. According to the American Heart Association, more than 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside of a hospital setting every year. Only about 10% of people who experience cardiac arrest in a non-medical setting survive. But if CPR is performed immediately, the chances of survival double or even triple.

Read: What’s the Difference Between Heart Attack and Cardiac Arrest?

Unfortunately, bystander CPR is performed on fewer than half of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. By offering CPR training courses that are easy and accessible, we’re hoping to change that number.

How Does Private CPR Training Work?

When you enroll for our private CPR certification course, you’ll be able to choose a time that works for your schedule. You’ll receive immediate access to online training materials and videos. When you’ve completed the coursework, you’ll have access to our Eagan, MN headquarters at your scheduled time.

Then, an instructor will connect with you virtually to take you through the final steps of the CPR certification process. You will receive an American Red Cross CPR certification, which is valid for two years.

See how it works:

We’re offering two options for private CPR training: Basic Life Support (BLS) and Adult/Child/Infant CPR/AED with First Aid.
