Cholesterol is broken down into two parts: good cholesterol (HDL) and bad cholesterol (LDL). The goal is to increase the good and reduce the bad. The latter can accumulate in your arteries, restrict blood circulation and eventually clog them completely. Under these conditions, you are at risk of cardiovascular disease. Since the arrival of “junk food” or sedentary lifestyles, this scourge affects more and more people. So, to take care of the health of your heart and your arteries, you must have a healthy lifestyle. We often say it, but it’s all in nature. Indeed, you must adopt a certain food to lower your cholesterol. Discover in this article the five fruits that have indisputable virtues to control your levels.

Avocado is an exceptional fruit for your body. It controls the level of your cholesterol thanks to its monounsaturated fats which are important to protect the heart area. These fats also help reduce lipids in the blood and therefore control your blood sugar. In addition, they are transformed directly into energy. So, by eating half an avocado every day, your cholesterol levels will naturally improve after about four weeks. Of course, in addition to this fruit, you will have to pay attention to the rest of your diet. The only negative thing about avocado is that it comes from far away and it’s not very eco-friendly to consume. So take advantage and savor this chance.
The red grapefruit
The second fruit that keeps your cholesterol levels at a good level is red grapefruit. The antioxidants it contains will protect your heart health. For this, incorporate half a serving of this fruit into your daily breakfast routine to have positive effects. In general, always try to buy organic fruit.

If you didn’t know, oranges contain molecules called sterols. This ingredient is also found in nuts and grains, but also vegetables. This fruit will limit the overall cholesterol level and especially act on the bad called LDL. Sterols help maintain good HDL cholesterol. So, drink a glass of orange juice every day for several months and you will see the positive effects on your blood test.

Fruit is full of benefits. Indeed, strawberries, red grapes, cherries, berries or blueberries have the power to lower bad cholesterol levels. Their antioxidant properties allow you to take care of your heart health. However, these fruits are not available all the time. When it’s in season, try to eat about 15 each day. Of course, no added sugar or cream!

It is known that the apple is a magic fruit. In addition, it is available all year round and grows on our French lands. Eating an apple a day would ward off cancer. The pectin and polyphenols contained in this fruit reduce inflammation and cholesterol, and therefore vascular or heart problems. So, do not hesitate to eat this food without moderation.
In addition to eating a healthy plant-rich diet, also try to get active every day. It is common to say that thirty minutes of physical activity a day can ward off health problems.
