Chocolate with nuts will reduce high cholesterol no worse than statins – special drugs. American scientists came to this conclusion.

A person does not feel a high level of cholesterol in the blood. At the same time, it is dangerous for health: the risk of plaque formation in blood vessels increases, which with an increased chance can lead to a stroke or heart attack.

A large amount of cholesterol also causes atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and hypertension.< /p>

To lower cholesterol, doctors use statins, special drugs. According to the results of the conducted research, a bar of chocolate with walnut can also become a medicine. As it turned out, the fiber contained in sweets will help block the absorption of cholesterol into the bloodstream from the intestines.
