11 Sample DASH Menu This menu follows the DASH eating plan outlined on the previous page. Serving guideline Sample menu Breakfast 2 grains 1 fruit 1 cup cooked oatmeal 1/2 cup canned pears, packed in juice Morning Snack 1 fruit 1 dairy 1 small banana 1 cup yogurt Lunch 2 grains 2 vegetables 1 dairy 2 ounces protein 1 vegetable Turkey Sandwich: 2 slices whole grain bread 2 slices of tomato & 2 large romaine lettuce leaves 1 slice low sodium Swiss cheese 2 ounces sliced turkey 1 tablespoon mustard 1/2 cup low sodium vegetable juice Afternoon Snack 1 fruit 1/3 cup nuts 1 apple 1/3 cup almonds Dinner 2 grains 3 ounces protein 2 fats or oils 2 vegetables 1 dairy 1 fruit Baked Fish with Rice and Vegetables 1/2 cup cooked brown rice with 1 tablespoon oil 1/2 medium sweet potato 1/2 cup cooked green beans 1 cup non-fat milk 1/2 cup sliced strawberries

12 Where do I start? 1. First write down everything you eat in a day. 2. Compare your meals to the DASH eating plan. 3. Online tools to track your foods and physical activity are also available. Try supertracker.usda.gov. Tips for using a DASH eating plan: Choose fruit for an easy to grab snack. Try fruit that is ready to eat like apples, bananas or canned cut fruit. Pick canned fruit that is canned in juice. Try casseroles, pasta and stir-fry dishes. They are great ways to use less meat and more vegetables, beans and grains. Add an extra vegetable serving to your lunch and dinner. Wash and cut up fresh vegetables and keep them in a clear container in the fridge. This will save you time when you want to use them. Keep frozen vegetables handy to add to stirfrys, casseroles, homemade soups and sauces. Choose whole grain products whenever you can. They will help fill you up and add fiber to your diet. Include low-fat milk with meals. Replace sweetened drinks with low-fat milk. Add low-fat milk to cooked cereals and homemade soups. Slowly reduce your portion size of meat, poultry, or fish. Fill your plate with more vegetables instead. Snack on low-fat yogurt or a small piece of low-fat cheese. Take the saltshaker off the table. Do not add salt when cooking, or cut the amount in half. Avoid processed foods. Divide your plate as a guide. Fill 1/2 of your plate with vegetables. Fill 1/4 with a whole grain. Fill the other 1/4 with lean meat, poultry, fish or beans. Have a salad and milk on the side. Add fruit for a sweet treat.

13 What s your serving size? Compare the size of your food portions to the serving sizes listed in the DASH eating plan and sample menu. Use these common objects to help you estimate the amounts of food to eat, especially when you are not able to weigh or measure the food. Baseball = 1 cup Deck of cards = 3 oz meat Golf ball = 1 oz or 2 tbsp CD/DVD = 1 oz sliced meat 9 volt battery = 1 oz cheese Where is the salt? Most of the salt we eat comes from processed packaged and restaurant foods, rather than a saltshaker at the table. Check Nutrition Facts labels to compare sodium content. 77% is from packaged and restaurant food. Nutrition Facts Serving Size 1/2 cup (130 g) Servings per container: About 3.5 Amount Per Serving Calories 130 Calories From Fat 0 % Daily Value* Total Fat 0g 0% Saturated Fat 0g 0% Trans Fat 0g Cholesterol 0 mg 0% Sodium 530mg 23% Total Carbohydrate 29g 10% Dietary Fiber 5g 20% Sugars 12g Protein 6g *Percent daily values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet. 11% is from salt added to food while cooking and eating. 12% is naturally occuring in foods. The amount of salt in food is listed as Sodium on the Nutrition Facts label. In general, adults should eat less than 2,300 mg of sodium per day blood pressure should limit intake to 1,500 mg per day. On Nutrition Facts labels a % Daily Value above 20% for sodium is considered high. Try to select foods that provide 5% or less per serving. healthvermont.gov healthvermont.gov This guide is not a substitute for the advice This of trained guide is health not a professionals. substitute for 5/30/14 the advice of trained health professionals. 5/30/14

18 Ask your doctor about getting vaccinated against pneumococcal disease, the cause of the most common form of pneumonia. It is safe to have along with a flu vaccine and for most people one dose provides lasting protection. Where Do I Get A Flu Shot? O Contact your doctor, healthcare provider or local health department for dates, times and places where flu vaccines are given. O Both flu and pneumococcal vaccines are covered by Medicare, Part B. O Make sure to talk to your doctor before getting vaccinated. Ask your doctor today Ask Your Doctor about vaccines to prevent the flu and pneumococcal disease. Because with diabetes, p re v e nt ion is cont rol, and control is your life line. Prevention Is Control. This information brought to you by and your health department. If You Have Diabetes, AFluShot Could Save If you live with Your Life. diabetes, you are more likely to die with the flu. Talk to your doctor.

19 Preserve YourLife For people with diabetes, the flu can be more than aches and pains. It can mean longer illness, hospitalization, even death. Because diabetes can make the immune system more vulnerable to severe cases of the flu. In fact, people with diabetes are almost 3 times more likely to die with influenza ( the flu ) or pneumonia. Flu vaccines are available at little or no cost in fact, they re covered by Medicare, Part B at doctors offices, clinics, pharmacies and grocery stores before flu season starts in the fall. But talk to your doctor first. Some people shouldn t get vaccinated. Take Control Consider the odds: O During flu epidemics, deaths among people with diabetes increase 5-15%. O People with diabetes are 6 times more likely to be hospitalized with flu complications. O Each year, 10-30,000 deaths among people with diabetes are associated with influenza and pneumonia. When you live with diabetes, you watch your diet, exercise and see your doctor regularly. Now you can add an annual flu vaccine to your routine. It s one more way to stay in control of your diabetes. Can A Flu Shot Give Me the Flu? No. Flu vaccines do not contain a live virus, so they cannot infect you. Some people coincidentally catch a cold a week or two following immunization. This is not a result of their flu vaccine the flu is not a cold. If you do develop the flu despite vaccination, the vaccine will still help prevent lower respiratory tract involvement or other secondary complications, reducing the risk of hospitalization and death. Do I Need AFluShot Ever yyear? Yes. Flu viruses vary from year to year, so it s important to get a shot every year to be sure you re protected. Does My Family Need Flu ShotsToo Yes. The flu is highly contagious, so immunizing your? family not only keeps them healthy, it decreases your chances of catching the flu from your loved ones. Pneumonia: Just as people MoreRough with diabetes are more susceptible to the flu, they are also at high risk of developing pneumonia. Water

20 GUIDE TO LOWERING YOUR CHOLESTEROL Approximately one in every six adults in the United States has high blood cholesterol. A person s risk of heart disease and stroke rises as blood cholesterol levels increase. Too much cholesterol in the blood can lead to cardiovascular disease which is the No. 1 cause of death. The good news is, you can lower your cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke by making lifestyle changes such as: 1) eat a heart healthy diet, 2) lose weight if you need to, 3) exercise minutes per day five days a week, 4) control blood sugar, and 5) stop smoking. /CVH Your ideal total blood cholesterol level should be 200 mg/dl or less and your LDL cholesterol level should be 100 mg/dl or less. A diet to lower your cholesterol includes foods from MyPlate that are low in total fat, saturated fat, transfat, and cholesterol. For a quick estimate of what and how much you need to eat and exercise, please visit BALANCE CALORIES Find out how many calories YOU need for a day as a first step in managing your weight. Go to to find your calorie level. Being physically active also helps you balance calories. ENJOY YOUR FOOD, BUT EAT LESS Take the time to fully enjoy your food as you eat it. Eating too fast or when your attention is elsewhere may lead to eating too many calories. Pay attention to hunger and fullness cues before, during, and after meals. Use them to recognize when to eat and when you ve had enough. AVOID OVERSIZED PORTIONS Use a smaller plate, bowl, and glass. Portion out foods before you eat. When eating out, choose a smaller size option, share a dish, or take home part of your meal. FOODS TO EAT MORE OFTEN Eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and fat-free or 1% milk and dairy products. These foods have the nutrients you need for health including potassium, calcium, vitamin D, and fiber. Make them the basis for meals and snacks. MAKE HALF YOUR PLATE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Choose red, orange, and dark-green vegetables like tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and broccoli, along with other vegetables for your meals. Add fruit to meals as part of main or side dishes or as dessert. SWITCH TO FAT-FREE OR LOW-FAT (1%) MILK MAKE HALF YOUR GRAINS WHOLE GRAINS FOODS TO EAT LESS OFTEN COMPARE SODIUM IN FOODS DRINK WATER INSTEAD OF SUGARY DRINKS They have the same amount of calcium and other essential nutrients as whole milk, but fewer calories and less saturated fat. To eat more whole grains, substitute a whole-grain product for a refined product such as eating whole wheat bread instead of white bread or brown rice instead of white rice. Cut back on foods high in solid fats, added sugars, and salt. They include cakes, cookies, ice cream, candies, sweetened drinks, pizza, and fatty meats like ribs, sausages, bacon, and hot dogs. Use these foods as occasional treats, not everyday foods. Use the Nutrition Facts label to choose lower sodium versions of foods like soup, bread, and frozen meals. Select canned foods labeled low sodium, reduced sodium, or no salt added. Cut calories by drinking water or unsweetened beverages. Soda, energy drinks, and sports drinks are a major source of added sugar, and calories, in American diets.
