THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 86% of non-age-related premature deaths in our industrialized countries are the result of debilitating non-solved health issues. With heart failure on top of the list (followed by cancer). Basically due to self-applied unfavorable lifestyle factors. With poor physical activity and unhealthy diet leading this pattern. The latter due to lack of sufficient health food, manifold replaced by unhealthy processed food. This leaves us with the question about …

HEALTH FOOD FOR OUR HEART – SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED


Nature’s kingdom is brimming unlimited with food supporting for our health and longevity generally, and for heart health specifically. Tapped by our ancestors with enthusiasm for thousands of years. Although this health food is still available – for free and at low cost at least – wherever we live, our knowledge about has shrunk in our seemingly ‘modern’ times.
 
That’s why we are focusing in this blog on at least a small part of heart healthy nutrition. Based on recommendations of the U.S. governmental Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and scientifically verified internationally.
 
In more detail:
 
       * Broccoli

 
This cruciferous green leafy vegetable may prevent heart disease by lowering artery-blocking cholesterol in blood.

Similar
 
  • Legumes/pulses
 
like peas/lentils/beans/chickpeas not only can lower the heart-harming LDL     cholesterol, their contents of, inter alia, protein, fiber and antioxidant polyphenols are beneficial for health in general and heart health in particular.  
 
Based on research at, inter alia, the University of Toronto and St. Michael’s Hospital, both in Toronto, Canada.
 
In this context we may also see
 
  • Oatmeal

Accordng to research at, inter alia, the University of Kentucky in Lexington, KY.
 
  • Spinach

With reference to research at, inter alia, the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University in Corvallis, OR.
 
  • Tomatoes
 
are heart healthy too because of highly powerful nutrients like primarily potassium but also because of its content of vitamin C, choline and folate (vitamin B-9).
 
According to, inter alia, the U.S. governmental Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, GA.
 
Besides of potassium’s benefits also for muscle strength and bones, as well as it may prevent kidney stones.
 
  • Asparagus
 
Since it contains folate preventing to build up the amino acid homocysteine, it helps to ward off coronary artery disease (CAD) and stroke.

  • Nuts
 
As nuts (like peanuts/pistachios/almonds/pecans/hazelnuts/walnuts) are rich in vitamins/minerals/fiber/protein/antioxidants, and especially walnuts being ripe with omega-3 fatty acids, they are very heart-healthy.

  • Liver
 
Liver is very important for our heart health, as it is a most nutrient-dense organ meat with special reference to minerals copper/zinc/iron/chromium, and folic acid.
