I totally agree, all these foods help in lowering body cholesterol. Some simply heighten HDL which is the good cholesterol. In fact, making sure all diets include these foodstuff will definitely lower body cholesterol.

What about those who have a food allergy to fish? I have been on a statin drug lipitor for several years! Now that I don't gave any health insurance I might have to start taking niacin tablets?

You can get omega-3 fatty acids from other sources such as hemp seed oil, flaxseed oil and others. You do not need to eat fish.

It's true that soya beans can reduce cholesterol.

i love to eat ceral with nuts or walnuts and bananas in it , but the milk has cholesterol , so i guess im not really doing anything to lower my cholesterol

My LDL came in at 195 190 mg/dL at my last checkup, and my doc said I had better get it under control or I would have to go on a statin drug. I guess I thought that my days of eating good food were over. But what is great about Sterolyn is that I'm not totally forbidden to eat the kinds of foods I enjoy. It actually can have a cheesesteak or some buffalo wings from time to time, and my cholesterol is still down. I've gotten my LDL down to 130 ml/dl, which I didn't think I could ever do.

It's not a cholesterol, it's a protein that transports cholesterol to tissue. Cholesterol is a fundamental building block for hormones and without it we would die. The rating for what constitutes "high cholesterol" has been lowered over the years by drug companies.

Why is "high cholesterol" now less than half of what was accepted as normal several decades ago?

Bottom line, drug companies make money off of disease.

Yes just like cancer more people are making a living from the disease than are dying from it.
