Figs
As one of the most underrated fruit snacks, after dates or raisins, figs are actually one of the richest sources of heart-healthy nutrition. Whether raw, dried or packed into jam, these sweet fruits are loaded with calcium and fiber, which can help build a healthy heart and even help reverse the effects of heart disease.
Flax Seeds
Flax seeds are rich in Omega-3 essential fatty acids, which are the good kind of fats. Flaxseeds are a popular supplement for those that don’t eat fish or nuts, and often sprinkled on salads or added to fruit or smoothies. Each tablespoon is packed with nutrition, and rich in estrogen and antioxidants, which have heart-healthy benefits.
