Chickpeas

Whether you add it to a salad or whip up a batch of hummus, enjoying some chickpeas is an easy way to improve your heart health in no time. Chickpeas pack 158 milligrams of magnesium per cup and are an easy way to make vegetarian and vegan meals more satisfying. Just one cup of these tasty legumes has 15 grams of filling, heart-healthy protein.

Brazil nuts

These nuts may be hard to crack, but all that effort is well worth it. While, at nearly 900 calories per cup, they may seem off-limits to many waist-watchers, Brazil nuts also pack 500 milligrams of heart health-boosting magnesium, as well as 964 milligrams of phosphorus, which can help fight water retention and reduce your risk of bone demineralization as you age.
