Spring is here, has the 'retention' of a whole winter added a lot of weight to you? How to occasionally 'clean' your body? Among the vegetarian dishes commonly eaten by people, there are 12 kinds that can reduce blood fat and clear the intestines. Their effects are as follows:

1. Oatmeal:

Onions almost contain no fat, so they can inhibit the increase in blood cholesterol caused by high-fat diet and help improve atherosclerosis. A substance extracted from scallions, called allin, can treat cardiovascular sclerosis. Garlic can reduce the content of total serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and β-lipoprotein. The secondary metabolite of allicin, methyl丙烯三硫, has the effect of inhibiting the synthesis of thromboxane A2, thus preventing thrombosis. Garlic can also treat obesity.
