Although
tomatoes can certainly help to "rinse"
arteries clean, adding goo on top can certainly
hinder. If heart health is your goal, it
might be time for an oil change.
Olive oil, “when
mixed with nitrite-rich vegetables like
lettuce [produces] compounds called
nitro fatty acids.” These acids can
help to lower blood pressure.
For even
greater protection against heart disease, Best Life offers the follow tips: become
engaged in some regular cardio exercise
routines, remain well hydrated throughout
each day, eat potassium-rich foods such
as bananas and spinach, use anti-inflammatory
spices such as ginger and turmeric,
rescue a pooch and make it your
faithful companion, sleep in a dark and
quiet environment, limit salt and sugar intake,
and have more fun.
