The American Health Association has released its latest healthy diet for the heart guidelines, which have now been updated after a long time, suggesting foods that can help in everyday and long-term wellness. The recommendations with regards to diet are applied by nutritionists and wellness instructors, but it remains unclear for the fate of Nutrition or Diet Apps.
American Heart Association's Healthy Diet for the Heart
The American Heart Association has released new findings from its research regarding that is the latest healthy diet that is applicable for heart health, to help in everyday functions and the future. The food that people eat still plays a massive role in the health they have, especially with regards to their future that has massive effects on heart health.
Nutrition Apps are not yet keen to adopt the guidelines yet, as each of them has different developers and are not consolidating that they are on board with these said guidelines. Moreover, it may be so that they have already the same or close to what the AHA has released, focusing on the diet that helps the heart on its daily functions.

Healthy Heart for a Better Life and Everyday Functions
The Healthy Heart Diet released by the association has focused on preparing food that is:
- less salty
- less fatty
- rich in plant-based protein (legumes, chickpeas, nuts, etc.)
- at least twice a week of seafood consumption
- avoiding processed foods
- avoiding sugary foods or drinks
- limiting alcohol consumption
- a good amount of vegetables and fruits
- at least 150 minutes of exercise per week
Nutrition and Diet Apps
Apps now are becoming more advanced as it was when it first came out for software and the first releases of the smartphone that relied mostly on applications. Before, users needed to input this and that to get results, but now, some have a "scanner" feature that can tell if a food is fresh or not, before consumption, with the use of AI.
A lot of people have tried different fitness and diet apps to help them lose weight, but of course, to also ensure that their health is at the topmost shape and avoid future complications with regards to their wellness. Keeping the body in the topmost condition is still one of the top priorities that people should focus on, to live a long and healthy life.
Some apps boast of having followed or adopted the guidelines of this organization or what the suggestion is of the American Heart Association, but it is unsure if the recent update to healthy diet would be brought by these apps. It is important to know that each app has its developer, and it may be so that it also has a nutritionist that design the program for a healthy diet.
