Cardiovascular Benefits
Chives contain allicin, an organosulfur that is known to lower LDL or bad cholesterol and increase HDL or good cholesterol, thus lowering the risk of stroke and heart disease. Allicin also releases nitric oxide that reduces stiffness in the blood vessels and decreases blood pressure. This vegetable helps prevent calcification of arteries.
