Bok choy is a highly nutritious vegetable and is known for its many health benefits, especially in helping to lower cholesterol.

The fact that calcium-rich kale helps reduce cholesterol has been proven by many scientific studies by international health organizations.

According to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, calcium has the ability to help reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) levels and increase good cholesterol (HDL). Calcium has the effect of supporting lipid metabolism, helping to improve cholesterol balance in the body. Calcium can reduce cholesterol levels by reducing the absorption of cholesterol from the intestines, while promoting the excretion of cholesterol through the stool.

In addition to being rich in calcium, bok choy also contains many fibers, vitamins and minerals that are beneficial for cardiovascular health. The fibers in bok choy help reduce total cholesterol by combining with cholesterol in the intestines and pushing them out of the body. This helps reduce the load on the circulatory system, reducing the risk of plaque formation in the arteries, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

The World Health Organization also recommends a diet rich in plant foods, including bok choy, to help prevent diseases related to high cholesterol. According to WHO research, adding foods rich in fiber and calcium can help reduce bad cholesterol, while reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases. A diet rich in green vegetables and calcium can help reduce bad cholesterol without the need for medication.

Calcium-rich bok choy is not only an important source of nutrition but also has a significant effect in reducing cholesterol and supporting cardiovascular health. Scientific studies from the world's leading health organizations have confirmed the important role of this vegetable in improving cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
