Scientists have found that strawberries help get rid of visceral fat that causes a heart attack.

This berry is rich in fiber, so it helps the body burn visceral fat around the abdomen. The Daily Express writes about it.

It is known that visceral fat disrupts the balance and functioning of hormones, impairs the sensitivity of cells to insulin and contributes to blood clots, which leads to heart problems and sometimes even a heart attack.

Experts at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center found in a study that soluble fiber slows the process of digested food from the stomach to the intestines and thus helps get rid of visceral fat.

"For every 10 grams of soluble fiber per day, visceral fat is reduced by 3.7 percent over a period of five years," the experts emphasized.

It was previously reported that moderate beer consumption reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.
