By avoiding certain foods, you can reduce your risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
This was reported by the Zen channel “Kitchen of a Technologist” with reference to the book by the German cardiologist Johannes von Borstel “Knock-knock, heart!”
What foods should you avoid for heart and vascular health?
First, you need to minimize your intake of saturated, hydrogenated and trans fats.
It is recommended that a healthy adult consume no more than 80 grams of fat per day.
Secondly, sugar. High blood sugar is one of the main causes of deposits in the vessels.
By consuming sugar in large quantities, you can develop not only diabetes, but also atherosclerosis.
And in general, it is advisable to replace simple carbohydrates with complex, long-chain ones.
