Good diet for high cholesterol

Hi kate

Soluble fibers are found in oats, fruits, vegetables, and legumes, and result in both a reduction in LDL cholesterol and an increase HDL cholesterol. For best results, at least two servings a day should be used.Cranberry juice has been shown to increase HDL levels. Fish and other foods containing omega-3 fatty acids can also increase HDL levels.Flax seeds(rich in fiber & omega3 fatty acid) is important to increase HDL levels. Amla helps to reduce the bad cholesterol & its helpful for maintain HDL level.

Any exercise, such as walking, jogging or bike riding, that raises your heart rate for 20 to 30 minutes at a time) may be the most effective way to increase HDL levels. Avoid smoking , Alcohol,oily foods & refined foods.

I completely agree with you Sujeeta,Diet rich in fibre,low in saturated fats is the best diet to reduce high cholesterol.

I agree, Diet rich in soluble helps in reducing high cholesterol.Do include blue berries, drumstick,banana flower, black soyabean, probiotic Yogurt etc in your diet.
