A diet to lower Cholesterol....

Unhealthy levels of cholesterol can lead to heart disease or stroke.Many things are determined by genes and gender but what we eat also plays an important role.People try including some tips in your diet which will help you in reducing cholesterol.

Take-up low-fat dairy products instead of whole milk or cream.So many brands of skimmed milk,fat free yogurt are there include them in your diet.

Eat snacks which are low in saturated fats and free of trans fats.Choose low-fat snacks like homemade popcorn, carrots, dried fruits, or fresh fruits instead of high-fat ones like potato chips and candy bars.

The liquid cooking oils should be used more compared to margarine. Use nonstick pans which uses less oil. Instead of frying your food, bake, broil, roast, steam, or stew.

"Dil ko Dharakne do" or protect your heart by eating plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Nuts are very healthy snack item.They are healthful and filling source of protein.

Drink alcohol only in moderation. Regular, moderate drinking can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, but heavy drinking negates the benefits.

Whole-grain products and legumes are low in calories and high in fiber. Eat more water-soluble fiber, such as that found in oat bran and fruits. This type of fiber can significantly lower your blood cholesterol level when eaten in conjunction with a low-fat diet.

An active lifestyle can also help lower cholesterol levels. Activities can range from walking and cycling to more vigorous exercise, such as running and dancing.

Cholesterol in food has impact on cholesterol in the blood .Therefore eating food that contains cholesterol will make difference to the total cholesterol in your body. Cholesterol is a critical chemical. It's a basic building block for virtually every body function.Without it or without adequate amounts, we suffer and die. It's required to create Vitamin D. It's required for nerve function, including all mental functions.Cell membranes would disintegrate without it. Sex hormones require it. Digestion requires it. Even the heart requires it.Since it's so necessary, it's clear lowering cholesterol levels too far must be harmful. It's so important that our bodies have a cholesterol-regulating function.So try eating them in moderation.
