12 Foods That Unclog Arteries (That Are Unknown To Most People)

Flaxseeds

Flaxseeds also contain pro-plant-based omega-3s (alpha-linolenic acid), fiber, and antioxidant plant-based products known as lignans. Regular flaxseed consumption can lead to lower blood sugar and insulin levels, as well as improved insulin sensitivity, in overweight and obese people with prediabetes.

Furthermore, preliminary animal research suggests that long-term flax consumption can help slow the progression of atherosclerotic plaques. Just keep in mind that whole flax seeds aren’t fully deconstructed during digestion, so choose ground flax seeds and keep them in the fridge to get the most out of them.
