How low can you go?
Tuesday 02 September 2008
If it’s not your doctor, it’s your TV. It seems like cholesterol is always receiving bad press from some angle, but it is in fact an essential part of a balanced diet.
We get two types of this body fat from our food; LDL(bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol).
Numerous studies show that reducing your LDL levels can prevent the risk of heart disease, heart attacks and strokes. High levels of bad cholesterol have also been linked to Alzheimer’s disease.
Eating more-ish foods such as butter, cakes, and pastries which contain high levels of saturated fats causes an increase in bad cholesterol in our bodies which can lead to blocked up arteries.
Eating foods such as oily fish, nuts and vegetable oils, which contain good cholesterol, can help to lower your bad cholesterol levels.
