Foods That Will Keep Your Heart In Good Shape

To maintain good health, your heart must be in good condition.

Your heart is the most hardworking organ in your body. It beats relentlessly

70 times in one minute, pumping enough blood to fill an average car’s petrol

tank 8 times per hour.

The heart works even while you are sleeping and it’s work rate double when

you are awake.

properly and also needs vitamins B, C and E as well as dolomite that will

strengthen the heart.

You also need to keep the veins and arteries of the circulatory system strong

and supple as well as keeping the blood pure.

Researchers agreed that eating sweet potatoes could add years to your life.

Sweet potatoes that are a deeper in colour are richer in beta-carotene.

One sweet potato could delivers 541 mg. of potassium, an essential mineral

that can lower even hard to treat high blood pressure also it keeps brain

levels of sodium under control, Two things that work to lower your risk of

stroke.

other tuber crop. Eating just one or two per week could slash your risk of
