THE DIET TO LOWER CHOLESTROL

The diet to lower cholestrol can work and can possibly save a person’s life. It can be safe, easy to use and effective. However, diet alone is not the only factor that will reduce bad LDL cholestrol levels.

Cholestrol is produced by the liver. This is then transported through the body to each cell. Excessive amounts are returned to the liver, but can also attach themselves to the walls of the arteries and cause heart disease. Despite this, cholestrol is vital for certain body functions, including membrane building, bile and hormone production, cell wall construction and the formation of sheaths for nerves. However, excess is not good. High levels of bad cholestrol can also lead to gall stones, mental problems and even high blood pressure in some people.

Some experts recommend lowering fats and high cholestrol foods through low cholestrol diets. However, simply lowering all cholestrol in a diet is unhealthy because it can in fact increase the risk of heart disease and not necessarily aid in the safe loss of weight. It has proven to be dangerous!

Thanks to extensive research, scientists have found a way to create a diet to lower cholestrol by reducing margarine consumption, not butter and eggs as originally thought. A meal or recipe that does not incorporate processed/refined foods, as well as trans/hydrogenated oils and fats are far more beneficial.

The important criteria when cooking recipes is to find ones that lower bad LDL cholestrol, but increase good HDL cholestrol. LDL that attaches to artery walls acts like plaque does on teeth. It can partially or completely block not only arteries, but veins and capillaries, limiting or halting blood flow to body cells, organs and most importantly the heart and brain. Such build up can result in heart attacks and strokes.

The advantage of increased HDL levels is that this good cholesterol wanders through the bloodstream, collecting unwanted LDL cholesterol and returning for disposal to the liver. It acts as ‘Mother Nature’s’ garbage collectors. As a result, scientists are recommending adding additional nutrients to such diets to further aid in lowering LDL levels, such as Omega 3, 6, and 9, an essential part of nutrition. This can be found in organic oils like flax seed, or can be bought in pill form from any drug store.

Other recommendations include:

Using extra virgin olive oil

Avoid virgin olive oil

Use plenty of garlic, or take a garlic supplement

Using Policosanol supplements, taken from sugar can

Using guggulipid, an Indian herb

taking CoQ10 pills, which lowers triglyceride levels and improves heart muscle strength

taking Vitamin E to improve blood circulation

taking Vitamin B3 and C to assist in further LDL reduction

only use recipes that clearly use foods that lower bad LDL and increase good HDL

Eating meals from healthy cholestrol-lowering diet plans, combined with the needed supplements and foods, will not only get overall cholesterol levels to where they should be. Most importantly, they can also assist in reducing hypertension and help with weight loss.
