Diabetes can create several life-threatening conditions, and the leading cause of death for diabetics is cardiovascular disease. So, we’re about to discover 10 AMAZING ARTERY CLEANING FOODS!

1) Studies show that the polyphenol content within dark chocolate can reduce your risk of heart disease. These polyphenols may lessen artery inflammation and reduce arterial plaque.

2) Oats are an excellent source of BETA GLUCAN, a type of soluble fiber which can help lower your LDL cholesterol levels.

3) The antioxidant content within onions, plus those sulfur compounds, as well as the flavanoid QUERCETIN, can all be beneficial to arterial health, and may help control your blood sugar.

4) Research has revealed that beets, especially raw beets and beet juice, can help lower your blood pressure.

5) The beneficial fat content of oily fish also has the ability to reduce inflammation, and has been shown to lower the risk of certain types of cancer.

6) Flax seeds are high in fiber and are known for having LDL-lowering properties. The true power behind seeds, especially flax seeds, are their potent omega-3 fatty acid content. Specifically, flax and other seeds can supply the omega-3 fat ALA, or ALPHA LINOLENIC ACID. ALA has been shown to prevent cholesterol build-up in blood vessels.

7) Studies show that eating 1 cup of nitrate-rich leafy greens, like lettuce, spinach, and parsley, can reduce the risk of peripheral artery disease by 26%. And, in general, nitrate-rich foods may lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

8) Berries have been shown to lower LDL and total cholesterol levels. Berries are also an excellent source of vitamin C. Vitamin C may help prevent the build-up of arterial plaque.
