These are the 5 Harvard Medical School-issued cholesterol fighters.
EGGPLANT AND OKRA
Two low-joule veggies with extra high levels of soluble fiber, they help expel cholesterol from your system before these harmful fatss get too cosy with your bloodstream.
FATTY FISH AND NUTS
The omega-3 fatty acids in fish help prevent abnormal heart rhythms and lower LDL cholesterol levels. Nuts provide a heart-healthy, satisfying alternative to saturated fats.
BARLEY, OATS, BROWN RICE AND OTHER WHOLEGRAINS
Increase the proportion of these powerhouse grains in your eating plan; they pack a mighty punch of cholesterol-lowering soluble fiber.
BEANS
Defend your heart on two fronts: beans are loaded with soluble fiber and takes time to digest, so you'll feel full for longer and be less likely to grab a heart-harming snack.
APPLES, GRAPES, STRAWBERRIES AND CITRUS FRUITS
These colorful fruits are rich in pectin, a soluble fiber that lowers LDL. Pack some daily to feed your afternoon craving.
Boost your heart's health naturally with this nutritious, artery-cleansing foods.
So, Let's EAT MORE OF THESE! Live healthy everyone. ^_^
