Doctors called the best foods to fight high cholesterol

Nutritionist Lynn Garton says too much saturated fat in your diet can raise your body’s “bad” LDL cholesterol, which increases your risk of heart disease. A nutritionist explained what changes in diet would help bring cholesterol levels in order.

healthy fats

The doctor recommended replacing high-fat yogurt and cheese with lower-fat varieties, as well as adding more nuts, vegetable oil, fatty fish and avocados to your diet. All of these foods are sources of healthy fats.

nuts

Unsalted, unsweetened nuts are a treasure trove of heart-healthy nutrients. A handful of nuts a day lowers bad cholesterol levels by about 5%.

Whole grains

The nutritionist advised instead of white bread, pasta and rice to choose whole grain options. Some whole grains, such as oats and barley, contain soluble fiber, which reduces the absorption of cholesterol into the blood.
