Dietary Advice               

A healthy diet is important to help reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, circulation problems and diabetes. This should include five portions of fruit or vegetables a day, and plenty of fibre e.g. wholemeal bread, wholegrain cereals (rice and pasta) and a low content of animal fat. Foods high in animal fats are butter, margarine, cream, cheese and red meat, and these should be used in moderation.

If you would like more information or have special dietary needs, the practice has a dietician who visits the practice once a month, or you can discuss it with any of the doctors or nurses.
