Breakfast is not only a source of energy, but also an opportunity to stay healthy.
If you have problems with your heart, blood vessels or cholesterol levels, then you need to pay special attention to eating a proper breakfast.
According to foreign nutritionists, in this case the ideal breakfast is porridge.
Healthy breakfast for heart patients
As a source of fiber, porridge may be beneficial for heart health.
As is known, high levels of “bad” cholesterol greatly increase the risk of developing heart and vascular diseases and lead to diseases such as stroke, hypertension and type II diabetes.
If you eat oatmeal in the morning, your blood cholesterol levels will noticeably decrease.
Eating oatmeal has been shown to be associated with lower levels of low-density lipoprotein, better known as "bad" cholesterol.
At the same time, nutritionists believe that for this it is enough to eat 5-10 grams of soluble fiber.
Other foods rich in fiber include chia and flax seeds, legumes, avocados, fruits and vegetables.
Patients with heart disease should definitely include these foods in their diet.
For healthy people, this breakfast will help avoid health problems in the future.
