Named a product that strengthens the cardiovascular system of older citizens
August 18 – Yakutsk.ru. According to official figures, about 31 million people in Russia suffer from diseases of the cardiovascular system. The risk of developing diseases increases after 50-55 years
Health blogger “HEALTH AND POINT” told about one useful vegetable, which is often overlooked. Its regular use has a beneficial effect on overall health.
This vegetable contains a large amount of fiber, which is essential for the human body. It is especially important to use it in sufficient quantities for people of retirement age.
We are talking about ordinary tomatoes. They contain a large number of useful elements, including vitamin C, carotene, potassium and lycopene.
To normalize metabolism, it is important to get enough vitamin C. Moreover, with age, all processes in the body slow down. Vitamin C is involved in the absorption of iron. In turn, carotene has a great influence on cognitive abilities and brain activity.
For older citizens, it is important to consume foods rich in potassium. It normalizes the functioning of the cardiovascular system and removes toxins from the body. Lycopene is responsible for the brightness of the color of tomatoes and contains a large amount of antioxidants.
Tomatoes contribute to the expansion of blood vessels and the removal of inflammation of the arteries. They strengthen the heart muscle and minimize the risk of developing hypertension, stroke and heart attack.
