Garlic
Garlic is particularly known for its ability to repel vampires, but not many know about its properties that can keep the heart healthy. It is also quite famous for making many types of dishes tasty, but very few are aware that it can improve the heart’s health. It is quite effective in lowering blood pressure. It first prevents plaque buildup in the arterial walls, avoiding the constriction of blood vessels. If you are not a fan of its taste, you can take it as a pill!
Red Wine
We knew you’d love this! Yes, it’s true. You don’t really have to avoid alcohol altogether when you’re on a diet. As a matter of fact, small doses of red wine can help you keep your heart healthy. A glass of wine can go a long way because it can help your blood vessels become more flexible, thereby preventing blood clot formation. Aside from the things previously mentioned, red wine can also help increase HDL levels in your blood which decreases the chances of having a coronary heart disease. Well, if doctors recommend this to prevent heart diseases, then we certainly won’t argue with them!
