Papayas
Papayas are helpful in preventing problems such as atherosclerosis and diabetic heart disease. When oxidation of bad cholesterol takes place, it sticks to the walls of the blood vessels and forms plaque that can lead to heart attacks and strokes. The presence of the phytonutrients in papayas helps prevent oxidization of the bad cholesterol in the body. Papayas also help in preventing the plaque from sticking to the walls, thereby keeping your heart healthy.
