Be kind to your heart and cut down your fat intake by using low-fat and reduced-fat dressings and spreads.
Heart-Smart Fats, Spreads, and Dressings
When purchasing fats, remember to stick with predominantly unsaturated ones. Also, opt for the reduced-fat or fat-free versions of the original dressings and spreads. You'll substantially cut down on your fat intake (and they're usually lower in calories, too).
Here's a master list to select from:
| Monounsaturated | Others that May Come in Handy |
| Olive oil | Nonstick cooking sprays |
| Canola oil | Fat-free and low-fat salad dressings |
| Low-fat dips, soft-tub margarines (regular and reduced fat) | |
| Plant sterol and stanol spreads | |
| Butter substitutes (sprays or granules) | |
| Low-fat mayonnaise | |
| Soy mayonnaise | |
| Natural peanut butter | |
| Almond butter |
