Salmon. The omega 3s in fish decrease inflammation and reduce the risk of blood clots.
Blueberries. These powerful disease fighters offer a healthy dose of antioxidants like vitamin C to toughen your heart.
Soymilk. It's high quality protein lowers triglyceride levels (too much of this fat causes high cholesterol which is bad news for your heart.
Olive Oil. This unsaturated healthy fat lowers bad cholesterol and raises good cholesterol.
Oatmeal. A great source of whole grains and clock full of fibre. Oatmeal helps fight bad cholesterol and if you want to be brave like my sister you can add a few tablespoons of liquid egg white for protein. I can't bring myself to try it yet but apparently is is delicious!
Hi Colleen,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed catching up on your posts. For some reason my blog is not activating them on their own and I had to come searching. I always have to wonder which boys you are talking about - I'll have to ask Devin who was the tallest and see if he knows what I am talking about.
