In this regard, Elizabeth Klodas listed the products that are mainly necessary for the normal functioning of the human cardiovascular system. Healthy fats come first, the cardiologist noted.

“Omega-3 fatty acids are anti-inflammatory and help thin the blood, preventing clots from forming,” Klodas said, adding that fatty fish, for example, helps lower blood pressure and helps increase good cholesterol by time that reduces triglycerides.

To saturate the body with antioxidants important for the heart, the doctor suggested including oranges, tomatoes and berries in the menu. Desserts and drinks include dark chocolate and green tea.

Additionally, the most important aspect of a healthy and nutritious diet is fiber (vegetables, fruits, whole grains).

Klodas also emphasized that to maintain cardiovascular health it is important to work on stress management and not forget about physical activity.
