Exclusive translation: Nutrition experts have revealed several foods that help the heart be in the best health and eliminate cholesterol.
Oats
Oats contain a high percentage of soluble fiber, which binds to cholesterol and prevents its absorption.
Nuts
Nuts, especially walnuts and almonds, are rich in monounsaturated fats that help lower LDL (bad) and increase HDL (good), and are rich in vitamin E, which helps protect cells from oxidative stress that can contribute to disease.
olive oil
It is rich in monounsaturated fats that reduce harmful cholesterol and raise good cholesterol. This oil is also full of compounds such as oleocanthal, which have been proven to reduce harmful inflammation in the body.
Winter root vegetables
In addition to fiber, which lowers non-HDL cholesterol, sweet potatoes and squash are packed with potassium, which is essential to help balance fluids in the body, which is linked to blood pressure.
Leafy vegetables
Cabbage is good for heart health because it is rich in potassium, magnesium, fiber, as well as nitrates that are converted into nitric oxide (NO), which helps dilate blood vessels and improve blood flow.
Oily fish
Salmon, trout, herring, mackerel and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids that can help increase HDL and LDL cholesterol, as well as reduce triglycerides in the bloodstream.
