Frequent consumption of these products destroys vascular health, which results in many unfavorable processes in the body.
Perhaps, cancer seems to be the most terrible disease to someone, but doctors remind: the leading cause of premature aging and death in developed countries are cardiovascular pathologies. This is written, in particular, by the “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”.
Various factors influence the occurrence of heart diseases. One of the most typical is the poor condition of blood vessels, which very often suffer from a lack of physical activity and unhealthy diet. As reported by zdorovoe-pitanie.rf, doctors have named 3 worst products for blood vessels – these are saturated fats, trans fats and salt, consumed regularly and in excess.
“Excessive saturated fatty acids, trans fats and salt in the diet are proven factors in the development of cardiovascular diseases, which cause premature aging,” experts warn.
What fat should you eat?Experts note: if animal fat in the diet makes up more than a third (more than 35%) of the total daily calorie intake, this seriously increases the risk of developing atherosclerosis – a vascular pathology that creates the prerequisites for the development of hypertension, heart attacks, strokes, embolism. With additional consumption of trans fats (found in margarine, ready-made pastries and desserts, fried foods, fast food), the risk of atherosclerosis increases even more.
To strengthen the health of the cardiovascular system, you need to consume unsaturated fats in the form of vegetable oils, nuts, fish. For example, it is recommended to eat fish two to three times a week.
“It has been proven that eating 50 grams of sea fish daily reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases by 50%,” the doctors shared.
Other healthy foods for healthy blood vessels. Non-starchy vegetables, fruits, leafy salads and greens, wholemeal bread, bran, whole grains.
