Raspberries
These also bring the manganese! This chemical supports bone health and is best when combined with calcium, zinc, and copper. Raspberries also contain other key heart-protective nutrients, including polyphenols. Polyphenols have been shown to lower the chance you’ll get heart disease.

Brazil Nuts
Outside of being a tasty nut from South America, these nuts lower the risk of heart disease. Not surprising, considering they contain good fat, nutrients, and antioxidants. Though their high levels of potassium mean you don’t want to overdo it. You will find an incredible source of selenium in Brazil nuts, with a single one holding 96 mcg, well over your recommended daily intake. Brazil nuts are high in zinc, magnesium, and copper, far more than your general nut variety.
