6 Simple Steps to Reduce Cholesterol
By Arindam Chattopadhyaya
High Blood Cholesterol is a high risk factor for coronary artery disease and the number one killer in the United States of America because it clogs the pipes.
What is Cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in all animal tissue, including humans, and is found in all foods that come from animal sources.
Bad and good cholesterol
There are two primary forms of cholesterol; low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) and high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). LDL cholesterol is considered as bad cholesterol because it tends to drop off along the way, clogging arteries and blood vessels, and contributing to plaque formation. HDL cholesterol removes LDL cholesterol from the blood circulatory system and returns it to the liver that removes it from the body.
You have cholesterol problem, you need to avoid egg yolks and organ meats such as the liver or kidneys because these are sources of dietary cholesterol.
Here is a list of 6 Natural Ways to Lower Cholesterol
1. You just need to do 30 minutes of exercise 3 or 4 times a week, which will significantly lower the risk for major life threatening disease like diabetes, heart disease. A brisk walk decreases the amount of LDL cholesterol in the body.
2. You can eat food high in cholesterol but avoid diet with high in saturated fat, from both animal and plant sources.
3. You should plenty of both types of fiber, soluble and insoluble. Please remember that soluble fiber removes cholesterol from the body by binding to it
4. Red yeast rice is extremely helpful in lowering cholesterol levels by its ability to limit the production of cholesterol.
5. Take regular deep tissue massage to reduce stress as stress increases cholesterol level.
6. Quit smoking and drinking alcohol.
There is more than 60% possibility that an adult over 45 years, may suffer
from diabetes, cholesterol or any other complicated disease. Today, all treatments are
costly so you should buy proper health insurance at the very beginning of your
career. If you are dog lover, you should take
pet insurance
for your dog because fees of veterinary doctors are also increasing. I am firm
believer of alternative medicine because a regular
massage therapy reduces stress, which helps you to control cholesterol and
diabetes.
