Although most recent studies show that eating citrus kernels, apples, pears and vegetable leaves protects against stroke.
Other studies show that the level of lycopene in the blood (a carotenoid found almost exclusively in tomato products reduces the risk of stroke by about 20%. In addition to carotenoids such as lycopene, dietary fiber, vitamin C, these foods, Vitamin E provides folate and flavonoids.
All of this has been associated with a reduced risk of stroke in epidemiological studies.

  •  Eat less sodium.
