Almonds contain heart favorable mono and polyunsaturated fats that prevent the risk of heart diseases. They also help sharpen brain activity. Almonds can be consumed in multiple ways but one easy way to do it is to use almond milk in your morning coffee.


Rich in vitamin E, walnuts are undoubtedly heart healthy. Some light roasted walnuts with your morning fruit juice would take good care of your muscular, blood-pumping organ.


Red wine must always stay close to you! It contains a vital flavonoid called Resveratrol that prevents damage to the blood cells and keeps the heart intact. Apart from just drinking it, you could poach a couple of pears in some red wine and make a healthy snack out of it.


Packed with monounsaturated fat, avocados can help lower LDL levels while raising the amount of HDL cholesterol in your body. A cup of avocado has about 23 percent of the recommended daily value of folate. It's also called Butter-fruit thanks to it's creamy flavour. 

Legumes such as sprouts among many others are rich in fatty acids, calcium, and soluble fiber. They curb all possible heart diseases and help maintain a light and healthy diet. Here's an interesting way to use legumes in your everyday life; whip up together legumes, cheese and salsa and enjoy the dip with some freshly baked bread.

Spinach could help curb heart diseases, overeating and lowers the risk of blood pressure. Make yourself a nice, tall glass of spinach juice as part of your breakfast. ( for juice, see in this/ or my recipe blog.)


Soy contains powerful phyto-antioxidants that effectively protect the blood vessels from lesions and haemorrhage. It is low in saturated fat, but it's still a great source of lean protein in a heart-healthy diet. Soy yogurt with some fruits sounds like a set plan.
