Anyone who has ever attended a naturalization ceremony cannot help but be moved by the power of the moment. The participants enter as men, women, and children of diverse countries, but leave the room as citizens of one—the United States. For many, the path to that naturalization ceremony has been long and arduous, irrespective of whether they entered the United States as wealthy entrepreneurs or as refugees with nothing but the clothes on their backs. The process of obtaining lawful permanent resident (LPR) status, and ultimately U.S. citizenship, is often daunting. A new country, new rules, high costs, and little targeted support for new immigrants makes what should be a journey of exploration and opportunity one that may be frustrating and lonely. Consequently, in order to focus on ways to improve the naturalization process itself, we must take a step back and consider the nature of immigrant integration in the United States. The better our integration policies—and the sooner they begin—the more likely we are to improve the rate of naturalization. Integration is an often overlooked but key component of U.S. immigration policy. Successful integration of immigrants fuels their success, strengthens communities, and builds bridges between newcomers and other community members. Time and again, an influx of immigrants has been shown to reverse economic decline and breathe new life into urban areas, small towns, and rural communities. Moreover, integration can be a key to entrepreneurship and future economic growth. For example, research by Richard Florida and Charlotta Mellander found that nations which focus more on immigrant integration have higher levels of economic competitiveness, are more innovative, and have higher rates of entrepreneurship. Solid integration policies offer benefits to both the immigrant and the receiving community. The investment in immigrants, therefore, is an investment in the country’s own wellbeing. The Immigration Policy Center (IPC) participated in a major international comparative study of integration laws across Europe, Canada, and the United States. Now, the Migrant Integration Policy Index, or MIPEX, is a reference guide and tool which measures and compares the immigration and integration policies of 31 countries. After a year of collaboration and analysis, the MIPEX researchers found that the U.S. ranked 9th overall, receiving 62 of a total possible 100 points derived from averaging scores in seven categories: labor market mobility (how immigrants access jobs and job training); family reunification (who is eligible to bring family members, and which family members); access to education; political participation; Integration is an often overlooked but key component of U.S. immigration policy. Successful integration of immigrants fuels their success, strengthens communities, and builds bridges between newcomers and other community members. long-term residence (who is eligible, how does one get it, and can it be revoked); access to citizenship; and anti-discrimination laws and protections. This overall ranking is not bad, especially when the lack of a national integration policy is taken into account. Canada, for example, which ranked third, engages in extremely detailed integration planning, in which the federal and provincial governments work together to determine both the necessary level of immigration and the types of support needed to attract new immigrants to the country. From a practical and political perspective, there is little doubt that the kind of labor-intensive immigration planning that goes on in many countries, as reflected in the MIPEX survey, would be difficult to replicate in the United States. Despite the overwhelming evidence that immigration is a net positive for the country, there is no national agreement that immigration is a good thing. It is hardly surprising, then, that we have trouble scraping together support for integration initiatives, including much-needed grants to organizations that provide basic English and civics training to prepare applicants for the naturalization exam. Such initiatives, run through the Office of Citizenship at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), began under the Bush administration and have received continued support from the Obama administration. For immigration restrictionists, any kind of pro-active effort to develop programs to assist immigrants is seen as a handout to immigrants, who are incorrectly viewed as uninterested in integrating into American life. Yet the work of researchers such as Dowell Myers and Tomas Jimenez disprove this assumption, demonstrating that today’s immigrants are integrating at least as quickly as prior waves of immigrants, and, in some cases, much faster. For instance, the percentage of immigrants who become homeowners or naturalize increases the longer they are here. Jimenez notes that such increases are particularly striking, given the “laissez faire” approach to integration in the United States, which has generally relied on immigrant initiative, access to public education, and a strong economy to encourage integration. Historically, many of the states with a long tradition of immigration— New York, California, Illinois, Massachusetts—have also been important players in integration, providing training and assistance to newcomers. However, the economic downturn and stretched state budgets have reduced states’ ability to fill in the gaps. At the same time, Myers notes that the rise of immigration to “new destination” states—such as Georgia or South Carolina—has led to a whole new crop of problems, in part because local residents have little experience with immigration and therefore harbor many misconceptions about immigrants. The absence of an immigration tradition, the suspicion that immigrants don’t want to integrate, and the host of anti-immigrant laws introduced or passed in these newimmigrant states have created even more urgency for the development of national integration strategies. Institutional barriers to LPR status and naturalization also play a role in hindering immigrant integration. MIPEX catalogs some of the legal and policy problems that plague the naturalization process. The study notes that U.S. naturalization fees “are now higher than in 25 of the 30 other MIPEX countries. Half ask for just normal administrative fees similar to obtaining passports.” The process of acquiring citizenship in the United States can be uncertain, lacking “legal time limits (unlike in 13 MIPEX countries). Many long and discretionary background checks also leave applicants slightly insecure about their status.” Not surprisingly, problems such as these are a major obstacle to naturalization. Jimenez notes that, despite the steady rise in naturalization rates over the decades, a shocking number of people do not naturalize who are eligible to do so. In 2008, for example, while more than one million LPRs naturalized, more than eight million were eligible to do so. Recognizing this gap, USCIS has begun a major public education initiative to invite LPRs to learn about the rights, responsibilities, and importance of U.S. citizenship. And state and local groups continue to work creatively with ever shrinking resources to give immigrants the tools they need to succeed. The good news is that, unlike many aspects of immigration reform, the challenge for improving integration and naturalization efforts is less about reforming existing law and more about generating support for sufficient planning and resources to create a more robust integration program. Efforts to prioritize integration and naturalization, to streamline current application processes, and to revise existing policies and procedures can be accomplished through administrative action. The most urgent legislative changes needed, as discussed by Maurice Belanger of the National Immigration Forum, relate primarily to increasing the appropriations given to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to promote integration, improve services, and reduce the high fees applicants currently pay for immigration benefits. Because successful integration is measured through a range of criteria—from educational attainment to employment to naturalization—a national integration policy necessarily involves coordination across a wide range of government agencies and must include the states. Many groups have called for the establishment of an Office of Immigrant Integration within the White House, while others see an expansion of the work of the Office of Citizenship as a logical base for promoting integration. Regardless of where the work is housed, however, taking the time to map out the steps government can take to facilitate integration would have a dramatic payoff for the country. The most obvious payoff would come from better coordination, allowing existing programs to leverage resources and strategies to encourage greater integration of immigrants. Promoting naturalization as a key step towards full civic participation, for instance, can be effectively done not only through immigration outlets, but through other government programs and agencies. For instance, few people think of the Department of Agriculture when we talk about immigrant integration, but it has long funded studies of immigrants in rural America. As the percentage of immigrants settling in rural areas increases, the opportunity for extension programs and other agricultural support programs to promote integration grows. Moreover, promoting and publicizing immigrant integration, especially in states where the new wave of immigration is taking place, offers an opportunity to overcome hateful stereotypes. Working with receiving communities to create a more welcoming environment and to educate these communities about the importance of immigrants to America’s future is also critical to a successful integration strategy. In the long run, building support for more appropriations to integration programs will be easier when the public recognizes that such support translates into a better economic and social future for our communities. In the meantime, however, if Congress insists on requiring naturalization and other immigration benefits to be self-supporting, it should at least sanction creative ways to assist immigrants who find the fees a major obstacle. Micro-loans, installment plans, and other payment options should be made available to applicants. Authorizing a citizenship foundation, much like the private foundation that supports the national parks service, is a mechanism for creating a private-public partnership which would cost the taxpayer little, but reap great rewards. Proposals to give tax breaks to businesses that provide access to English classes or otherwise support the integration process are also promising. Without the benefit of a national integration initiative, however, many of these ideas will languish because their importance is overlooked or minimized by Congress and the public. If we want to improve the naturalization process, we must urge the government to use its executive authority to improve the quality of the application and adjudication process. But we must also encourage the executive branch to think far more broadly. A national immigrant integration strategy—coordinated across the federal and state governments—is critical to changing the way we talk about immigration today. The success of such a plan would benefit individuals, strengthen our democracy, and help us break the stalemate that keeps us from addressing the broader immigration reform we need. In a classic case of “which came first, the chicken or the egg,” promoting immigrant integration will actually make it easier to justify better, smarter immigration laws.

PUBLISH: VCVN NOV 14, 21, 28, DEC 05, 2013 Page B3 VIDA NEWSPAPER 11-14-13 “An American, When?” By Raoul Lowery Contreras In a citation for Peralta’s (Navy Cross) medal, Navy Secretary Donald Winter credits the eyewitnesses’ account that Peralta grabbed and smothered the grenade “without hesitation and with complete disregard for his own safety.” That rare epitaph reflects the dedication and courage that distinguished Sgt. Rafael Peralta, proud American, proud Marine.” - Editorial, San Diego Union, 9/24. Herein lies a vexing question when the largest percentage of foreign-born people in a century populates the country today. When does one become an American? Is it when one is born in the United States, its territories or under its jurisdiction as per the Constitution’s 14 th Amendment? Is it when one becomes a naturalized citizen? Or, is it when one simply lives here legally with permission and looks and acts American? Certainly it is when one is born here or is naturalized. But is it when one becomes a “Permanent Resident?” I don’t think so. Just because one looks, acts and thinks like an American does that make him or her an American? The case of Marine Sgt. Rafael Peralta is a good example. He came from Tijuana legally or illegally (some say) to attend school in San Diego. He must have been legal because he had no trouble in getting a Permanent Resident card – the “Green Card” – on his own after he turned 18. He promptly joined the U.S. Marines. Peralta was not an U.S. citizen on the day in 2004 that he died in Fallujah, Iraq.

(B & P Code § 17913) /s/ DELVER ENTERPRISES INC. RAUL DELGADO PRESIDENT NOTICE - In accordance with subdi- he, as noted in the San Diego Union, an American? Certainly he acted like one, he talked like one and he died like one. One must ask, however, is that enough? There are many such people as Peralta who act more American than others who were born here or are naturalized but they lack the one essential status that I think is necessary to really be an American – citizenship. Putting aside those who are natural born citizens, that is born citizens because they are born in the United States, its possessions or through citizen parents, we must concentrate on those who are here legally and either are naturalized or carry the Green Card. In 1994, there were literally a million or more “Green Carders” in Los Angeles County of Mexican citizenship, many who had lived in the U.S. for generations. When the famous anti-illegal alien Proposition 187 was on that year’s ballot, a swing of 500,000 or so votes would have defeated it. That didn’t happen because so many of these Mexican “Green Carders” weren’t eligible to vote despite being long time taxpayers and property owners. Many of the men had served in the United States armed forces. Their excuse was that they would return to Mexico some day to live out their years on a little “ranchito” which, of course, they never or rarely do. Nonetheless, their track record was that of looking and acting like Americans. But they weren’t. Let’s look a little deeper. WWII soldier Macario Garcia was one of four Mexican citizens awarded the Medal of Honor by the United States for bravery above and beyond. He was born in Villa de Castaño, Mexico. Jose Francisco Jimenez was another, a Marine born in Mexico City. We don’t know what the legal residency status of these two was but we do know that two illegal aliens from Mexico were awarded the Medal vision (a) of Section 17920, a fictitious name statement generally expires at the end of five years from the date on which it was filed in the office of the county clerk, except, as provided in subdivision of section 17920, where it expires 40 days after any change in the facts set forth in the statement pursuant to section 17913 other than a change in residence address or registered owner.

Sgt. Jose M. Lopez was born in Mexico. Mission, Texas was listed as his birthplace on his enlistment papers making him a natural born American citizen. Someone lied. He was born in Mexico. He literally wandered across the border in the 1920s. He was born in 1910 and we don’t know when he entered Texas but as he professionally boxed as a 16-year-old in Texas he probably came after 1924 making him an illegal. Soldier Alfred Rascon was awarded the Medal of Honor for bravery in Vietnam. It was only then that it was discovered that he was an illegal alien from Mexico brought here as a young child without benefit of “papers.” These men acted like real Americans without doubt. They are men to look up to, certainly. Like Sgt. Peralta they went far beyond what many Americans even dream of doing for this country. But Peralta was not a citizen when he died and that distinction seems to me to be important. As brave as these men were they are not eligible to be President of the United States because they lack a key requisite — citizenship from birth. Some would say that is unfair because we are a nation of immigrants but a line must be drawn or citizenship is valueless. The Founding Fathers were cautious when they restricted the Presidency to “natural born citizens.” They did so because they feared rich Europeans would come to America to buy the Presidency. If they hadn’t been, who is to say that the country wouldn’t be littered today with radical foreign-born demagogues running for President using millions of petrodollars if not for the Founders’ prescience? other than a change in residence address or registered owner.

A new Hispanic Americans Face Greater... Continued from page A1 Between 1979 and 1999, middle-class Hispanic households increased nearly 80 percent. In the same period, the group of Hispanic households earnings between $40,000 to $140,000 grew to include about one-third of the total Hispanic households nationwide. Today, the U.S. Hispanic population makes up about 49 million people; by 2050 that number will increase to 132 million, accounting for nearly 30 percent of the total U.S. population. Due to the growing Hispanic population, an average longer life expectancy, and because only 16 percent of the population is in their preretirement years, Hispanics will make up a significant number of those entering retirement in the future. "Since two-thirds of Hispanics are employed in the servicerelated field, which generally does not offer employer-sponsored retirement plans, many hard working Hispanic Americans may not have the proper nest egg to retire. It is imperative that their savings are managed and invested in a secure plan that assures income for life," said Brent Wilkes, Executive Director of League of United Latin American Citizens. “AMERICAN HISPANICS FIGHT FOR AMERICA” Continued from page B2 not awarded the Medal of Honor for capturing 25 German soldiers because he was a “Private” and did not speak English well.

PUBLISH: VCVN NOV 07, 14, 21, 28, 2013 PERIODICO VIDA 11-14-13 Pagina B4 Biden lamenta la caída de los fondos destinados a violencia de género El vicepresidente, Joe Biden, visitó la sede nacional del Servicio de Atención a la Violencia Doméstica y lamentó que la partida destinada a esta institución de ayuda a las víctimas se haya reducido por los recortes automáticos de gasto público. Biden presentó en la sede nacional en Austin un nuevo servicio de atención a la violencia doméstica, en el que las víctimas pueden conversar con los orientadores y psicólogos a través de un chat en directo por internet. “Necesitamos más gente y más recursos”, sentenció en su discurso Biden, autor cuando fue senador de la ley federal sobre violencia contra las mujeres que creó hace dos décadas este servicio telefónico, y ahora digital. “El objetivo desde que asumimos la vicepresidencia y la presidencia ha sido conseguir destinar para el servicio de atención 4.5 millones de dólares (anuales) por una razón muy simple: dejamos sin contestar 52,000 llamadas el año pasado”, justificó. Según Biden, el acuerdo entre demócratas y republicanos sobre ajustes automáticos del gasto público lo ha complicado: “En estos años hemos conseguido elevar la cifra a 3.2 millones y ahora a causa de este innecesario recorte de las inversiones la cifra será de 2.9 millones”. “Eso son miles de mujeres a las que dejamos de atender”, advirtió. Por el contrario, el vicepresidente celebró la puesta en marcha de la atención por un chat porque facilitará el contacto con las víctimas jóvenes y dará mayor confidencialidad al resto. Según la presidenta del Servicio de Atención, Katie Ray-Jones, “cada vez más y más gente se pasa a los recursos digitales para informarse sobre los abusos domésticos”. Ray-Jones justifica que los usuarios se sentirán así más protegidos tras una pantalla y mejorarán la sensación de confidencialidad, como han comprobado en los primeros chats. “Hola, estoy aquí con una amiga PARA SU SALUD El vicepresidente Joe Biden indica que los recortes afectarán a miles de mujeres víctimas de violencia doméstica. mía y no sabe a dónde ir o qué hacer con una relación problemática”, explicó por chat una usuaria durante la prueba piloto este octubre. “Tiene tres hijas y pensamientos suicidas”. De hecho, durante las seis semanas de prueba, aceptaron tener chats en línea como éste el 98 % de los usuarios de la web (thehotline.org) que buscaban ayuda. A la vez, el servicio electrónico intentará descongestionar la atención telefónica de ayuda a las víctimas, puesto que, de las 265,000 llamadas recibidas en 2012, unas 52,000 no pudieron ser atendidas por falta de recursos. El 20 % de las llamadas las hicieron víctimas de origen hispano y los dos estados más poblados, California y Texas, generaron el 30 % de las peticiones de ayuda. La violencia de género no es un asunto menor, según las estadísticas que maneja el centro: una de cada cuatro mujeres estadounidenses y uno de cada siete hombres han sufrido violencia física o mental severa por parte de su actual pareja o alguna precedente. En EE.UU. se calcula que cada minuto 24 personas sufren una intimidación, violencia física o incluso violación por parte de una pareja íntima. La presencia de las consultas por internet también debería dar respuesta a un problema creciente, especialmente entre los adolescentes, como es la intimidación o el abuso de parejas a través de la red o de los mensajes de texto. Biden, que visitó recientemente el centro por tercera vez en los últimos años, pidió esfuerzos para que los jóvenes estadounidenses crezcan sin repetir los problemas de roles que genera la violencia doméstica. “Nunca, nunca es culpa de la víctima”, recordó emocionado el vicepresidente. “Decir ‘no’ significa ‘no’, y punto. Y quien vaya en contra de un ‘no’ está cometiendo un delito, y punto”. El centro de atención telefónica, que orienta a las víctimas sobre cómo actuar, se mantiene en un 70 % por fondos federales y también recibe donaciones privadas. La prueba es que el nuevo servicio de chat ha tenido como fuente principal de financiación una ayuda de 250,000 dólares de la compañía telefónica Verizon y el centro espera recibir una cantidad similar por parte de otra gran compañía. El servicio de atención a las víctimas llegó el pasado verano a la cifra de 3 millones de llamadas atendidas durante sus casi veinte años de historia. “Si se hicieron tres millones de llamadas quiere decir que todavía quedan tres millones que no se han atrevido a llamar”, dijo Biden. CHISTE Chiste de Cornudos Un domingo, al día siguiente de una fiesta en casa de su jefe, un hombre se levanta con una cruda marca diablo de esas que uno no quiere ni seguir vivo, le pregunta a su esposa : - ¿Oye, que paso anoche ? No recuerdo nada... - Nah... te emborrachaste, perdiste el control, montaste un numerito en la fiesta y tu jefe te despidió y con sobrada razón, hasta la madre le mentaste - Que regazón hice! Y a ti que te hizo o que te dijo?... - Si, si me dijo y me hizo muchas cositas y es por eso que puedes presentarte a tu trabajo mañana. Página B5 PERIODICO VIDA 11-14-13 Afroamericanos e hispanos Aleje a sus hijos son los mayores usuarios de las drogas de telefonía móvil Las mujeres hispanas son las que más hablan Los afroamericanos y los hispanos son los más aficionados a la telefonía móvil en Estados Unidos, ya que son quienes más tiempo dedican al mes a hablar por su teléfono celular y más mensajes de texto envían y reciben, según señala un estudio publicado por la firma de análisis Nielsen. Las conclusiones, extraídas de las facturas de 60,000 usuarios de teléfonos móviles en este país, señalan que la comunidad afroamericana es la más habladora al pasar más de 1,300 minutos al mes conversando por teléfono móvil (unas 21.60 horas), seguida de la hispana, que dedica una media de 826 minutos al mes a comunicarse por el celular (unas 13.75 horas). Ambas cifras superan a las registradas en las facturas de los consumidores definidos como caucásicos o blancos, el grupo de población menos comunicativo al tan sólo 647 minutos al mes en llamadas, por detrás de los de origen asiático (692 minutos). El liderazgo de la población afroamericana en el consumo de telefonía móvil no se limita a las llamadas, ya que también encabeza la lista en el apartado de los mensajes de texto al enviar y recibir una media de unos 780 SMS al mes. Los hispanos los siguen de cerca como usuarios muy ágiles en el uso de los mensajes de texto, ya que envían y reciben una media de 767 SMS al mes, por encima de los blancos y los asiáticos, que contabilizan 566 y 384 mensajes al mes de promedio, respectivamente. El estudio de Nielsen señala que, por sexos, las mujeres son las más comunicativas, puesto que, además de consumir un 22 por ciento más de minutos que los hombres colgadas al teléfono móvil, son las que más mensajes envían y reciben: 601 SMS al mes, frente a los 447 de los varones estadounidenses. El uso de telefonía móvil también varía según los estados y, cuanto más al sur del país, mayor consumo de minutos telefónicos se registra, según destaca Nielsen. Las mujeres son las más comunicativas, consumiendo un 22 por ciento más de minutos que los hombres en su móvil y enviando más mensajes de texto, segun un estudio.

Los blancos y finalmente asiáticos son los grupos étnicos que se benefician de percepciones favorables por parte de los agentes en este tipo de situaciones, según el estudio, publicado en el número actual de la revista científica Journal of Social Issues. El estudio halló que los participantes fueron más rápidos en general al identificar y disparar en situaciones simuladas contra afroamericanos e hispanos que a asiáticos y blancos. “Debido a que el país se está volviendo cada vez más diverso, los intentos para enfrentar las abiertas y sutiles formas de prejuicio y discriminación basadas en la raza y/o etnia son de mayor importancia”, escribieron los autores del estudio, que busca también hacer recomendaciones para el entrenamiento de policías. El estudio presume de ser el primero en investigar el sesgo contra hispanos en dos escenarios de simulación de situaciones sobre disparar. El primero de ellos estuvo enfocado a la respuesta de estudiantes universitarios en determinar si un probable blanco de cada grupo racial estaban armados, y su tiempo de respuesta estuvo relacionado con combinaciones estereotípicas, como la de hispano es igual a hombre que porta un arma. En el segundo estudio se examinó sesgo implícito en los tiempos de reacción y errores por parte de oficiales de policía y si estuvieron relacionados con las características de las comunidades y las creencias personales o culturales de los oficiales. 1 muerto y 2 heridos en balacera Viene de la página A1 a la policía haber visto a dos personas escapar del área poco después de que se escucharan los disparos, aunque podrían haber sido más personas. Los investigadores del caso exploran la posibilidad de que el incidente pueda estar relacionado a las pandillas, aunque hasta el mo- mento es muy temprano para determinarlo, indicaron. El motivo del crimen continua siendo investigado. De acuerdo a récords de la corte, en el año 2000, Dominguez fue detenido en dos ocasiones por estar ebrio en público y en el 2010 se declaró culpable de asalto físico por un incidente que ocurrió en el 2009, el cual fue un crimen menor. Algunos de los residentes indican que el área donde ocurrió el incidente es una zona popular para la compra y venta de drogas, ya el parque de esa colonia facilita este tipo de actividades.

Las enfermedades del corazón o afecciones cardiovasculares son las principales causas de muerte en Estados Unidos y el panorama entre los latinos no es alentador. De acuerdo con la Asociación Americana del Corazón, AHA, por sus siglas en inglés, las enfermedades cardiovasculares son la causa número uno de muerte entre los latinos; se calcula que el 27 por ciento de las más de 133 mil muertes anuales de latinos en Estados Unidos se debe a enfermedades cardiovasculares. Así las cosas el llamado a la acción debe hacerse en voz alta. La forma en que decidimos vivir nuestro día a día tiene una influencia directa en la salud de nuestro corazón; por eso, si nuestra intención es vivir una buena y larga vida, lo mejor es tomar desde ya las medidas necesarias para tener un corazón saludable. Para eso debemos darle especial atención a nuestras costumbres alimentarias, a las actividades físicas que realizamos, al control de hábitos como el de fumar y a la revisión permanente de la presión arterial y los niveles de colesterol. La hipertensión o presión arterial alta es el factor de riesgo más importante de las enfermedades del corazón, de no controlarse puede causar serios daños si no la muerte. Conocida como la asesina silenciosa, la hipertensión no presenta síntomas, por eso aunque uno de cada tres adultos la padece, el 21 por ciento de ellos lo ignora. ¿Cómo controlarla? El estilo de vida es la clave. Además de los medicamentos recetados cuando ya se ha convertido en un problema de salud, la hipertensión se puede controlar ingiriendo una dieta saludable para el corazón que puede incluir la disminución en el consumo de sal, realizar actividades físicas regularmente, mantener un peso saludable, controlar el estrés y evitar el alcohol y el humo del tabaco. Mantener una rutina de actividad física es uno de los retos más complicados. Sin embargo, puede estar seguro de que “sacrificar” unos minutos diarios para dedicarlos al ejercicio, le traerá más ventajas de lo que sospecha. La primera ventaja es que – con sólo 30 minutos por día de ejercicio moderado- reducirá el riesgo de contraer enfermedades del corazón. ¿Por qué no estacionar su vehículo, un poco más lejos de su destino la próxima vez o elegir escaleras en lugar de ascensores con más frecuencia? Caminar, trotar o nadar con frecuencia le harán a su corazón un servicio incalculable. Trate de encontrar en su rutina diaria el mejor momento para regalarse un poco de ejercicio y si quiere atender su corazón, no olvide que debe llevar una dieta saludable. La AHA recomienda una dieta rica en frutas y verduras; ricas en vitaminas, minerales y fibras, y bajas en calorías. El consumo de frutas y verduras puede ayudar a controlar el peso y la presión arterial. El consumo de pescado al menos dos veces por semana, es altamente recomendado. Está demostrado que el consumo de pescado que contenga ácidos grasos omega-3 como el salmón, la trucha y el arenque, puede reducir el riesgo de muerte a causa de enfermedad de las arterias coronarias. Elija carnes con la menor cantidad de grasa posible, de ave sin piel y prepárelas sin grasas saturadas y prefiera los productos lácteos bajos en grasa o sin grasa y evite al máximo el consumo de sal. La prevención es su mejor aliada, vi- site a su médico periódicamente y si no tiene seguro médico, recuerde que en casi todos los estados, ciudades, condados y localidades hay un lugar donde pueden atenderlo. Cuide su corazón, lo necesita para toda la vida.
