remedies for preventing vein obstruction
Following
foods are very useful to prevent arteries blockage, must try
Olive oil
Only
oxidized cholesterol is able to stick to your artery walls and form plaques.
Monounsaturated fats present in olive oil when mixed with molecules of bad
cholesterol become less likely to be oxidized.
Spinach
Spinach
is rich in potassium and folic acids, both of which act as a defense against
high blood pressure. Spinach is also rich in lutein, a plant carotenoid which
not only protects against age related macular degeneration but also prevents
heart attacks by keeping arteries free from cholesterol build up.
Tomatoes
According
to a study conducted by Korean researchers, lycopene, a compound present in
tomatoes that gives them their color, helps in prevent hardening of the
arteries.
Researchers
found that women with the highest lycopene levels in their blood had the least
stiffness in their arteries.
Fish
A
study conducted by researchers at Southampton University found that Omega 3
oils, present in fishes like tuna and salmon, stop the build up of fatty
deposits in the arteries. These fatty acids prevent clots from forming and cholesterol
from becoming oxidized.
Garlic
Since
ancient times garlic has been used to treat heart disease and hypertension.
According to a study published in preventive medicine, garlic inhibits coronary
artery calcification which serves as a marker for plaque formation.
Oats
Thanks
to the soluble fiber in oats, cholesterol doesn’t stand a chance. This fiber
attaches itself to cholesterol and carries it right out of your system. Some
studies have shown that eating just 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 cups of cooked oat-bran
cereal daily can lower cholesterol levels by almost 20%.
Pomegranates
Pomegranate
juice not only appears to prevent hardening of the arteries by reducing blood
vessel damage, but may also reverse the progression of this disease.
Pomegranate fruit and its juice are high in antioxidant content, which may help
fight hardening of the arteries.
Cranberry juice
This
juice strains the fat out of arteries. Instead of having fat build up in your
blood vessels, this juice boosts your cell’s ability to absorb the fat and use
it for production of energy. Drink three glasses of this juice every week to unclog
your arteries.
Grapes
Grapes
are rich in flavonoids, quercetin, and resveratrol. These flavonoids have been
found to prevent the oxidation of bad cholesterol that leads to the formation
of plaque in artery walls. They also lower the risk of developing blood clots
that can lead to heart attacks.
