Diet and exercise will definitely help to lower your cholesterol:
* Reducing meats helps
* Reducing diary food intake helps
* Only using low fat or non fat diary is generally a must
* Increasing intake of fruits and veges helps
* Walking helps
* Being stressed less helps
There is no one specific food that will help to lower your cholesterol. It is a combination of things.
There are also many natural alternatives/supplements that can help to lower cholesterol. Some of these are reportedly more effective in lowering cholesterol than prescription medications, without the dangerous side effects
These include: guggul, policosanol, red yeast rice, pantethine etc. In addition there are at least another 30 natural supplements that can help to lower cholesterol. Hope that helps.
