Today, children love junk food and are instantly inclined towards fat, sugar, and salts in fast food like a magnet. It is important to include leafy vegetables in their diet as studies have found a link between increasing your intake of leafy green vegetables and a lower risk of heart disease. Leafy green vegetables like spinach, kale, and collard greens are well-known for their wealth of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They’re also high in dietary nitrates, which have been shown to reduce blood pressure, decrease arterial stiffness and improve the function of cells lining the blood vessels.

Berries

Berries can reduce several risk factors for heart disease and are also rich in antioxidants like anthocyanin’s, which protect against the oxidative stress and inflammation that contribute to the development of heart disease.

Fatty Fish and Fish Oil

If you don’t eat much seafood, fish oil is another option for getting your daily dose of Omega-3 fatty acids. Fish oil supplements have been shown to reduce blood triglycerides, improve arterial function and decrease blood pressure.

You can either make baked beans, falafel, bean salad or a normal bean sabzi with any of the carbs.

Almonds

Make sure you give them 3-5 almonds daily as they are incredibly nutrient-dense, boasting a long list of vitamins and minerals that are crucial for heart health. They’re also a good source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and fiber, two important nutrients that can help protect against heart disease. Research suggests that eating almonds can have a powerful effect on your cholesterol levels, too.
