Good Food, Bad Food

Filed Under Health | Leave a Comment

It’s true - research has shown that certain good foods, like salmon ( full of omega 3), fruits and vegetables, do increase the elasticity of your blood vessels, improving their ability to adapt to situations when the body needs increased cardiac output. And bad foods, especially fried and fatty foods, those rich in triglycerides and cholesterol, can do the reverse, cause the blood vessel to  stiffen, harden, and potentially cause calcium deposition and plaque buildup. And these effect can start hours after the meal is ingested.

So it’s proven - good food does improve your blood vessels.
