Are you gaining weight? Does this make you worry about your cholesterol level? Do you feel like you need to do something about your eating habits particularly your cholesterol diet?
Good idea…Unhealthy cholesterol levels like hypertension, does not exhibit symptoms until complications like serious heart disease resulting in heart attacks occur. Lowering cholesterol's with medications have been found out to be effective. However, a lifestyle change that would include a good cholesterol diet as a first step would work best. Drugs as lone solutions to lowering a person’s cholesterol level may not be as efficient if not coupled with some physical activities and better cholesterol diet. These are very essential partners.
Regardless of the fact that fat is a major source of energy in the body; it is also not the only source. Too much fat in a person’s diet can increase the blood cholesterol levels resulting in heart attack. However, fat content is not a good gauge of a food’s cholesterol content. Liver and other organ meats may be low in fat but have high cholesterol content.
