Sardines

While sardines may be an acquired taste for some, studies have shown that the cold fish is actually loaded with healthy heart-boosting nutrients. In fact, sardines are rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which can decrease the levels of harmful triglyceride, increase the levels of protective HDL or good cholesterol, decrease inflammation and eventually help prevent heart disease.
