| I heard that eating Artichokes can help keep my heart healthy. Is there any truth to this claim? |
| Very promising preliminary research shows that Artichokes may offer protection against heart disease in people who already have high cholesterol. More research is needed to determine the exact substances in Artichokes that make them cardio-protective, and the exact role they play in maintaining good health and preventing disease. Until then, there are plenty of other heart-healthy reasons to add Artichokes to your diet — they’re loaded with fiber, plus they are fat-free and cholesterol-free. |
