Swap your Big Mac for this veggie burger, and your heart will reap the benefits. Walnuts and olive oil are great sources of monounsaturated fat, which can lower both total and low-density (bad) cholesterol and keep plaque from forming in blood vessels. The omega-3 fatty acids in walnuts may reduce your risk of a heart attack, and the beans are a super source of soluble fiber, which decreases your risk for heart attack and stroke.
