3. Broccoli
Broccoli is another vegetable that can prevent the clogging of arteries due to the fact that it is jam-packed with vitamin K. Vitamin K will protect your arteries from calcium that might otherwise damage it. Broccoli also prevents the oxidation of cholesterol which, as we explained above, could lead to clogged arteries.
Broccoli contains high levels of fiber which will reduce your stress levels and lower your blood pressure. This is good since stress can lead to plaque in your arterial walls as well as tearing. These tiny trees also have high levels of sulforaphane which further prevents plaque buildup in your arteries through the use of protein.
It’s best to get at least three servings of broccoli every week to get the best results. Broccoli is also really yummy. One of the best ways to incorporate it into your diet is by eating it together with oyster sauce and shitake mushrooms.
