During this time, corn was on the market and it was particularly fresh, so I often cook corn for family members. I heard that regular consumption can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Is it true?

    Often eating corn can effectively prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Modern medicine believes that corn is rich in nutrients such as unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, trace elements and amino acids. Modern research has confirmed that the content of unsaturated fatty acids in corn, especially linoleic acid, is as high as 60% and above. It cooperates with vitamin E in corn germ to reduce blood cholesterol concentration and prevent it from depositing on the blood vessel wall. Therefore, corn has certain preventive and therapeutic effects on coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension.
