9 Foods That Are Known to Reduce the Risk of Strokes

4. Peanuts

According to the National Peanut Board, eaing about five ounces of peanuts per week along with a healthy diet, can reduce your risk of strokes. They say that a “systematic review” of about 20 studies have concluded that eating peanuts daily can reduce the risk of not only strokes, but also coronary and cardiovascular diseases. This is perhaps due to their high fiber content, which helps lowering cholesterol, a major factor in the cause of strokes.
