Family Dinners for a Healthy Heart

Want your family to have healthy hearts? Start with the family dinner table. Not only do most adults consume too much sodium, most kids do as well. Eating too much sodium can increase risk for high blood pressure which can eventually lead to heart disease, stroke and kidney disease.
