Take in fewer calories. Large meals predispose to obesity - the biggest enemy of heart.
Eat foods rich in fiber. In a 1996 study says that men who take through food daily 28 g fiber, significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular attack.
Reduce coffee. Caffeine contained in it is directly related to the level of cholesterol in the blood, particularly in people consuming more than three cups of coffee a day.
Eat fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish, dairy products (low-fat), lean meats, nuts and seeds. Including these products in your diet, you will take less fat and cholesterol.
This type of diet will lower cholesterol and fats in the blood by about 20%. The
risk of heart disease decreases by 2% for each 1% reduction in
cholesterol, if you apply a diet low in fat, high in fiber and contains a
variety of complex carbohydrate foods. Or in general, you can reduce your risk of heart disease by 40 percent.
Here
are the foods that are especially important for heart health: brewer's
yeast, garlic, ginger, green tea, oatmeal, onions, plums - dried soy and
wine.
