How to Lower Cholesterol Levels Without Drugs

What’s the Best Way to Lower Cholesterol?

Introduction

You can do a number of things to reduce your blood cholesterol levels and thus lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. The most beneficial actions include:

(1) Following a healthy diet
You need to choose the correct type of dietary fat, and reduce your intake of high-cholesterol foods. In addition, your daily diet should include regular amounts of fresh fruit, vegetables and dietary fiber (especially soluble fiber).

(2) Taking regular exercise
Regular cardio-aerobic exercise (like walking, swimming) is essential to maintain the strength and resilience of your cardiovascular system.

(3) Making lifestyle improvements
Includes weight reduction if overweight or obese; quitting smoking; normalizing alcohol intake.

I haven’t posted my weight in weeks because I was getting so discouraged with the lack of movement on the scales part! I had been working so hard and my scale would not move past that icky 200! This week I bit the bullet and stepped on the stubborn thing and saw (drumroll, please) 196!! Not only that but my doctor called me personally at work to tell me that I won’t have to take cholesteral meds. My LDL had been 164 the first of the year. It is now 104! I really feel like my body is ready to let go of the fat and maybe it won’t be so hard from now on. Thanks Anne for not letting me give up! And thanks to all of you for all the encouragement.

“I started this diet four months ago motivated to lower a 261 cholestrol level. The plan at that time was to be good for three months and see where it got me. Its been four months of healthier eating, and some of it is starting to become habit. This time I think the pounds are gone for good! This make 30 pounds in less than 4 months. But hear this… my Cholesterol Count over the past few months has dropped from 261 to 204. I am so thrilled…”

“I started on the cholesterol diet in Nov 2004. I got a letter from my doctor with my physical results and my cholesterol has changed dramatically since last January!

Overall: 188 (was over 260)
HDL: 36 (still needs some work)
LDL: 127 (was over 150)
Triglycerides: 124!! (was over 300!)

That is amazing considering my family history of terrible cholesterol.”
