Apple: Apple is rich in pectin, cellulose and vitamin C, which has a very good lipid-lowering effect. If you eat two apples a day for a month, most people's low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (harmful to the cardiovascular system) will decrease, while the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level beneficial to the cardiovascular system will increase. Experiments have proved that about 80% patients with hyperlipidemia will have lower cholesterol levels.
Corn: Corn is rich in calcium, phosphorus, selenium, lecithin, vitamin E, etc., all of which have the effect of lowering serum cholesterol. Indians have almost no hypertension and coronary heart disease, mainly because their staple food is corn.
Garlic: Garlic is a mixture of sulfur-containing compounds, which can lower blood cholesterol and prevent thrombosis, and help increase high-density lipoprotein.
Leek: Besides calcium, phosphorus, iron, sugar, protein, vitamins A and C, leek also contains carotene and a lot of fiber, which can enhance gastrointestinal peristalsis, have a good laxative effect, and can eliminate excessive nutrients in the intestine, including excess fat.
Lentinus edodes: It can obviously reduce the levels of serum cholesterol, triglyceride and low density lipoprotein. Regular consumption can make the high-density lipoprotein in the body increase relatively.
Onion: Onion contains prostaglandin A, which can relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. It also contains dilute propyl trisulfide compounds and a small amount of sulfur-containing amino acids, which can not only reduce blood lipid, but also prevent arteriosclerosis. People aged 40 should eat more.
Carrot: rich in pectin calcium, it is excreted from feces after running in with bile acid. If the human body wants to produce bile acids, it will inevitably use cholesterol in the blood, thus promoting the reduction of cholesterol levels in the blood.
Wax gourd: Eating wax gourd regularly can remove excess fat and water in the body and play a role in losing weight.
Kelp: Kelp is rich in taurine. Dietary fibrous alginic acid can reduce blood lipid and cholesterol in bile.
