Pears
While always playing second fiddle to the ever-popular apple, pears are an “appletizing” option that brings some of the same benefits with a comparable blend of fiber, nutrients, and antioxidants. Pears help lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and risk of heart disease. Pears also contain plenty of niacin and folate, which are essential for keeping your body’s cells in top working condition. Keep an eye out for reddish pears, which are bound to contain anthocyanins, compounds essential for boosting your heart’s wellbeing.

Asparagus
If your heart could talk, it’d say “asparagus is a great pair for us!” Asparagus is a great pairing for your heart health cause it’s loaded with vitamins A, C, E, & K; folate, and fiber. That’s great for everything from regular bowel movements and general digestive health to endocrinological health (i.e., diabetes) to cardiovascular health. You probably wish this list was all wine, chocolate, and coffee but, as you can see, vegetables are so important to heart health!
