How to Lower LDL Cholesterol

Soluble fiber lowers the LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol). Five servings (a serving is 1/2 cup) a day of fruits and vegetables will help. Eat foods high in soluble fiber such as apricots, apples, citrus fruit, berries, carrots, prunes, cabbage, sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts.
Beans are another source of high soluble fiber. All of the beans or legumes also provide soluble fiber. Eat daily 1/2 cup of any bean like kidney beans, black-eye beans, lima beans, or other dried beans will reduce your cholesterol (total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol).
Recent studies have shown that stanol esters and plant sterols block the absorption of cholesterol from the intestines, reducing the cholesterol. New margarines, Benecol and Take Control in USA, Flora Pro-active and Logicol in Australia contain these ingredients.
Eat oats, soy products, nuts, and garlic.
Reduce your intake of meat. They are high in cholesterol.

One should try to reduce or lower LDL cholesterol and raise HDL cholesterol to achieve a LDL HDL ratio below 3.
