10 Health Benefits of Artichokes
Health Benefit #2: Healthy Heart
The need to keep our hearts in good condition is more obvious. A healthy heart is essential to good health overall and heart disease can be very dangerous for us. Get plenty of artichokes in your diet, though, and you will be helping to keep your heart in great condition.
Artichokes contain compounds that can help to reduce the levels of bad cholesterols, while also increasing the levels of good cholesterols. Bad cholesterols can build up in the blood vessels, potentially causing blocks that can be very dangerous indeed. Artichokes can help prevent this from occurring, though.
