5 Foods to Eat to Control Bad Cholesterol

LET'S START

LDL cholesterol causes arterial plaque, whereas HDL cholesterol helps the body excrete cholesterol. Hormones, vitamin D, and bile to break down lipids need cholesterol.

Seeds and nuts: Use them as a snack or pasta and salad garnish. Stock up on basic flavors. Look for natural almond or peanut butter with simply nuts or nuts and salt.

Calcium-Rich Food: Choose yoghurt, milk, cottage cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, creamer, and cheese to reduce fat. Canned salmon, sardines, and other seafood are calcium-rich.

Non-Vegan Options: Try fortified cereals, juices, and green, leafy vegetables if you're lactose intolerant or vegan to make up for the calcium you're missing.

Eggs: Did you know that egg white contains no cholesterol? They are, however, rich in protein.

Balanced Meal: A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains and good fats help to control bad cholesterol (LDL).
