Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Limiting salt won’t lower your cholesterol, but it can lower your risk of heart diseases by helping to lower your blood pressure. You can reduce your sodium by instead choosing low-salt and “no added salt” foods and seasonings at the table or while cooking.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eating good fats in place of saturated fat can also help prevent insulin resistance, a precursor to diabetes. (16) So while saturated fat may not be as harmful as once thought, evidence clearly shows that unsaturated fat remains the healthiest type of fat.

Detailed explanation-3: -Choose fish, chicken, turkey and lean meats. Use dried beans, peas, lentils and tofu. Limit egg yolks to three to four per week. If you eat red meat, limit to no more than three servings per week and choose loin or round cuts.
