Eternal Valley Memorial Park Mortuary is providing all visitors with complementary, “heart-healthy” recipes from the American Heart Association in celebration of Valentine’s Day. The recipes will be available in the reception area. Eternal Valley is located at 23287 N. Sierra Highway, Newhall, 91321.
“Many families celebrate Valentine’s Day by cooking together, and making heart-healthy recipes is just one more way to show how much you care,” said Curtis Woods II, General Manager, Eternal Valley Memorial Park Mortuary. “In providing these recipes we hope to help everyone in the communities we serve live in good health.”
In addition to the recipes, Eternal Valley is sharing the following Heart-Healthy Living Tips from the American Heart Association.
* Park and walk. How many times have you circled the parking lot to find “the” spot? Spare yourself the stress and gain more energy by parking far away (or even in a remote lot) and walking farther to your destination.
* Skip the cake, say goodbye to pie and take a family walk after dinner. You’ll get a reward that’s sweeter than dessert: more time together.
* Warm up before you work out. If you plan to run, start by walking. Then walk fast, and speed up to a jog to increase your heart rate. When you aren’t active your muscles are cooler and tighter. Go easy on them by letting them gradually get loose and warm instead of making them go straight from cold to hot.
* Stretch after every workout to help prevent injury or strain. Pick two or three of your favorite songs to play while you stretch — and don’t stop until they’re over. The minutes will speed by and you’ll get all the stretching you need.
* Hydrate. Water is your friend. The harder and longer you work out, the more you need. Did you know that 70 percent of your body is made of water? Make sure to replace whatever water you sweat out after each workout. Your body needs it.
According to the American Heart Association’s website, “Good nutrition is one way to reduce your risk of developing heart disease and stroke. Making healthy but tasty dishes at home can help you control your cholesterol levels, blood pressure or diabetes. These recipes can to help you prepare meals that not only taste great, but are good for you.”
