I have really high cholesterol (280) it's part hereditary and also because I used to eat very unhealthy as a child. I am 18 years old and on Crestor to lower my cholesterol. I am trying to eat more healthy but is there something you can eat to lower cholesterol? I've heard of oatmeal but that's about it.
I am exercising almost everyday for 25-30 minutes so hopefully that helps too!
To reduce cholesterol is one of your greatest health challenges.
The most important endeavor in your effort to reduce cholesterol, is to find out what's causing the high cholesterol.
As your cholesterol is partly hereditary you must focus on medical treatment beside working on lifestyle.
Besides, take foods like almonds, soy proteins, viscous fibre (high-fibre) foods such as oats and barley, the special margarine with plant sterols, fruit, soy deli slices, tofu bake with eggplant, onions and sweet peppers and vegetables.
If you are over weight then loose weight.Get your heart pumping harder through exercise because this improves the good cholesterol and lowers the bad cholesterol.
CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR AND DIETICIAN about lowering cholesterol.
