Chocolate
Do you consider yourself a chocoholic? If the answer to that question is ‘yes’, you’ll be thrilled to hear this. Apart from being completely delicious, the treat can actually reduce your chances of contracting stroke and heart disease! A Harvard study has revealed that people who regularly consumed raw cocoa generally displayed reduced blood pressure levels and zero signs of hypertension. Dark chocolate is full of antioxidants called flavnols and moderate consumption will result in lower blood pressure, flexible blood vessels, and the prevention of cardiovascular conditions.

Sardines
Sardines might be considered an acquired taste, though there are plenty of reasons why you should learn to like it if you’re not a fan. The cold fish is full of healthy nutrients for the heart! Sardines boast of omega-3 fatty acids, which can improve the levels of good cholesterol, aka HDL, lower inflammation, decrease triglyceride levels, and ultimately prevent conditions of the heart.
