Coconut Oil
Although the doctor always tells us to avoid unhealthy saturated fats, coconut oil might be a small exception to the rule. That’s because, whilst coconut is filled with lauric acid, which increases the bad kind of cholesterol (LDL), coconut also contains the good kind of cholesterol (HDL). So, since can increase both good and bad cholesterol, it kind of balances out and a limited amount can actually be healthy for your heart.
Cauliflower
Whilst some might underestimate the powers of this albino-broccoli, research shows that cauliflower can help boost the overall health of your cardiovascular system. In fact, this cloudy flower ranger is loaded with fiber and low in carbs. It’s also delicious baked or char-grilled and makes a mean side dish. In addition, cauliflower can also help prevent oxidative stress, detox your body, prevent stomach disorders, strengthen your bones and fight against respiratory problems.
