Having a healthy heart is the dream of everyone. Exercising often and having a healthy lifestyle helps maintain heart conditions.
Eating quality food also has a big role to play in this. Finding quality food is not difficult, here are some quality foods that you can buy cheaply, reported on the Shape page, Monday (8/10). Not only is it healthy, but the foods below can also cleanse your arteries.
Avocado
According to a 1996 study conducted by researchers in Mexico, people who like to eat avocados every day for a week experience a 17 percent decrease in total blood cholesterol. In addition, their level of bad cholesterol (LDL) decreases while good cholesterol (HDL) increases. "Instead of using mayonnaise, you better use a few pieces of avocado on your bread," said a dietitian in New York, Megan Madden.
Whole Wheat
According to Madden, the soluble fiber found in whole grains such as whole-grain bread, brown rice, and oatmeal can bind cholesterol in your food, and bring it out of the body. When your body needs cholesterol in the following days, your body will attract a supply of cholesterol in the blood. So that it can effectively reduce total blood cholesterol levels, and also reduce your risk of heart disease.
