Chocolate
Up next, we have yet another delicious but surprising treat on our list. Chocolate is adored by just about everyone, though you might be surprised to hear that it can do wonders for the heart. A Harvard research has actually shown that individuals who consume raw cocoa on a regular basis have lower blood pressure levels and no indications of hypertension problems. Dark chocolate, in particular, boasts of antioxidants named flavonols so it is a good idea to eat it in moderation. Doing so will boost the flexibility of your blood vessels, decrease your blood pressure, and basically improve your cardiovascular health.

Sardines
We’re personally big fans of sardines, but we understand that not everyone is. If you are concerned about improving your cardiovascular health, it might be time to start getting cans from the store! Sardines have plenty of omega-3 fatty acids, which can then decrease the amount of triglyceride, reduce inflammation, increase the HDL levels, and reduce the likelihood of getting heart disease.
