OK, to recap: exercise, whole grains, fruits and vegetables—especially citrus, apples/pears, and dark green leafy vegetables—green tea, garlic, and nuts. These are all things we should strive to include in our daily routines. Besides smoking and salt, is there anything else we should avoid? That’s the subject of this next video: What Not to Eat for Stroke Prevention (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/what-not-to-eat-for-stroke-prevention).
