3. Cured, fermented or air-dried meats or fish
4. Aged cheeses: aged cheddar or Swiss, blue cheeses, Camembert
5. Fermented cabbage: sauerkraut, kimchi

Do's & Don'ts:

1. Use the Food Guide Pyramid to structure your eating habits. Choose a wide variety of foods from all the food groups. At each meal try to consume a portion from at least three of the food groups.
2. Limit your total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. You can accomplish this by choosing lean meats, cheeses, and dairy products. Trim the visible fat off your meat. Grill, broil, or bake meat rather than frying. Choose 1 percent butterfat or less milk and milk products. Limit total fat to 30 percent of your daily calories.
3. Limit your salt or sodium. You can achieve this by choosing more fresh or frozen foods and limiting processed foods. Go easy on condiments such as olives, ketchup, mustard, pickles, and soy sauce. Read food labels and choose foods that have a sodium content of 5 percent or less of the daily value per serving. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, which are naturally low in salt. Please note that if you have hypotension, you may be asked to increase your salt intake under a doctor’s supervision.
4. If you drink alcohol, do so only in moderation. Alcohol supplies moderate amounts of calories and few nutrients. Limit intake to one drink per day for women or two drinks per day for men.
5. Choose a diet high in fiber. A high-fiber diet may protect against many chronic diseases. You can accomplish this by selecting whole grains, minimally processed foods, fruits and vegetables.
