Eating food that does not contain high cholesterol and an increase in high blood pressure is also important.

Other fish are mackerel and sardines that contain omega 3 which promotes a healthy heart other protein staples are lobsters and oysters. However, attention must be paid that they are well cooked. Nuts Cashew nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds, and pecans are all tree nuts, and a number of studies have documented their potential health benefits.
