Beans
We have already mentioned several types of beans on this list, but we still think that beans should still be given a spot here. Some of the most common ones are lentils, legumes, peanuts, peas, green beans, and soybeans. All of them have low-fat, high-fiber, and high-protein content. The phytochemicals in beans also help in reducing the risk of developing heart disease.
Pears
This bell-shaped fruit has a lot of similar properties with apples. Just like apples, pears are also crunchy and delicious, good for desserts or snacks. These fruits are bursting with nutrients, antioxidants, and fiber. This means that they, too, can help in the reduction of cholesterol, decrease blood pressure, as well as lower the risk of having heart disease.
