These are some of the healthiest fruits for your arteries and glucose control.

1) Tomatoes are actually classified as a fruit, and they supply LYCOPENE - an antioxidant pigment which possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic, and anti-hypertensive properties, which can improve vascular function, and may work to prevent a variety of cardiovascular disorders.

2) Grapefruit contains PECTIN – a type of soluble fruit fiber that has been shown to significantly reduce blood cholesterol and the development of atherosclerosis. A serving of grapefruit also gives you nearly 65% of your recommended daily intake of POTASSIUM - an antioxidant that aids heart contractions, and it has been shown to lower blood pressure, and the risk of stroke.

3) Peaches supply BETA CAROTENE – an antioxidant carotenoid that has been shown to improve cognitive function, eye health, and it may reduce the risk of several types of cancer. Beta carotene has also been shown to prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, which limits the risk of developing atherosclerosis.

4) Grapes contain RESERVERATROL – an anti-inflammatory polyphenol that decreases inflammation while improving markers associated with cardiovascular health for those already suffering from coronary artery disease.

5) Blackberries are a great source of VITAMIN K – which may block the progression of arterial thickening and stiffening – meaning it may reduce the risk of atherosclerosis. Studies show that consuming blackberries and blackberry extract can improve arterial stiffness while benefiting lipid profiles and endothelial function.
