It's not a list of dos and don'ts. Rather, it’s guidelines based on generally accepted bet practice. I recently spoke with Dr. Alice Lichtenstein who is a senior scientist and Director of the Cardiovascular Nutrition Team at the Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging through Tuft's University and special advisor to the American Heart Association.

Digital-exclusive health reports from Dr. Benita Zahn. Look for new episodes every Monday and Thursday.
