I would like to add another nutrient to this list and that is Acetyl Carnitine. It increases the ATP level in cardiac muscle cells and also reduces the fatty acid level in blood. It increases the elasticity of blood vessles and thus may reduce the distolic blood Pressure. Thus,on one side ,it increases the contractile force of cardiac muscle and on other side it reduces the afterload on the heart.

The fibers in vegetables and whole wheat are called insoluble fiber and they help keep you regular and lower colon cancer risk.The B vitamins, especially folate, lower heart disease risk by reducing levels of a compound called homocysteine in the blood.
