The body cannot be healthy without fruits in the daily diet. Some fruits not only help strengthen the immune system, reduce the risk of minor illnesses but also have a very effective effect on controlling cholesterol.

To make the most of the nutrients from fruit, people should eat it fresh. Because when we eat, we can absorb the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fiber in the fruit. Drinking fruit juice, although good for health, contains very little fiber, according to the health website. Healthline (America).

Kiwi fruit not only helps improve immunity but also reduces harmful cholesterol in the body.

To simultaneously boost immunity and reduce blood cholesterol, people should prioritize eating the following fruits:

Cam

Oranges are known for their high vitamin C content, which helps boost immunity. They are also rich in fiber and plant sterols, which help prevent the intestines from absorbing cholesterol from food.

A large orange contains about 4 grams of fiber. Most of this fiber is found in the orange pulp. Importantly, this fiber also includes soluble fiber, which helps stabilize blood sugar and control cholesterol.

Sung

Figs are not usually the first fruit that comes to mind when people think of boosting their immune system or lowering their cholesterol. However, figs are not only rich in vitamin C, but also contain a type of soluble fiber called pectin. Research has shown that pectin can help eliminate triglycerides and lower cholesterol. Both of these effects work together to prevent heart disease.

In fact, pectin acts as a binder and increases cholesterol excretion. Therefore, cholesterol will not be absorbed into the body but will go out.

Guava

One thing that not everyone knows is that a guava contains 4 times more vitamin C than an orange. In particular, guava is also rich in fiber, potassium and antioxidants. These are all nutrients that help maintain blood vessel health and prevent the risk of heart disease.

A study in the journal American Journal of Cardiology It was found that eating ripe guava before meals not only reduces blood pressure but also reduces total cholesterol.

Kiwi

Kiwi fruit is not only delicious but also rich in soluble fiber, polyphenols and vitamin C. Research in the journal International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition showed that regularly eating kiwi will help reduce “bad” LDL cholesterol and increase “good” HDL cholesterol, according to Healthline.
