日醫學博士推薦：5類食品助3周讓你改善心血管健康
人體的健康是各種營養素與身體組織互相配合、調控來達成的；除了維生素D，包括EPA、維生素C等營養物質都是保健心血管重要的環節。生活中常見的一些食品都富含這些有益健康的營養素，日本池谷醫院院長池谷敏郎博士推薦5類食品來改善心血管健康
- 青背魚類：青背魚指背部呈現青綠色的魚種，像是鯖魚、鮪魚、竹筴魚、鮭魚、秋刀魚都富富含能順暢血液循環的EPA。（編輯推薦：穩穩補足EPA、DHA！男星1週把三酸甘油酯降回正常值）
- 亞麻仔油或紫蘇仔油：這兩種油類含有能在體內變成EPA的ω−3脂肪酸。建議可在每一餐中加一小匙亞麻仔油或紫蘇仔油在沙拉與湯品中。
- 洋蔥、大蔥與葉菜：富含食物纖維與大蒜素和礦物質、維生素C，攝取這些營養，能抑制血小板凝結為血栓，降低血管阻塞的風險。
- 咖啡：咖啡含有能夠改變血管狀態的綠原酸，是近年來深受矚目的養生新寵。
- 起司、乳酪：含有能夠降血壓的「乳三胜肽（Lactotripeptides，LTP）」，乳三胜肱能增加血液中的一氧化氮，幫助血管變年輕。
池谷敏郎表示，只要多攝取以上這些食物，只要三周就能開始改善血管的狀況。想要擁有年輕的心血管，不妨從攝取這些食物著手。

(The relationship between cardiovascular disease and birth month could be mediated through a developmental Vitamin D-related pathway. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels are lower and parathyroid hormone levels are higher during the winter when no supplementation is given.59 Even with maternal supplementation, seasonally dependent Vitamin D deficiency has been observed among breastfed infants60 and newborns.61 This is important because levels of parathyroid hormone and Vitamin D are associated with cardiovascular disease.62,63 Specifically, elevated parathyroid hormone is correlated with increased heart failure in elderly males.64 Studies focusing on adolescents found that Vitamin D deficiency resulted in an increased likelihood of hypertension (a SeaWAS discovered association)65,66 and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,66 both risk factors for cardiovascular disease) - https://www.edh.tw/article/15931
