Low Cholesterol Recipes

By Cathy from Townsville, QLD (Guest Post)

See if you can buy a certain type of butter in the supermarket designed especially to treat this. Also, my mum had high cholesterol, and I told her to eat half a raw onion every day. Her cholesterol levels dropped! You can also look for cholesterol-lowering tablets in the vitamin section of your supermarket or health shop. Failing that, a doctor can prescribe stuff for you. The most important thing is your diet - cut back on fats ASAP!

Get a vegan cookbook. Vegan has no animal products at all. Vegetarian can include eggs and cheese (which you don't want).
Become acquainted with tofu and tempeh (health food store).

Make recipes from tuna, sardines and salmon canned in oil, since the oil contains omega 3, which is a vital oil for treating cholesterol (you can also take omega 3 tablets). Add to your fish cans a variety of dark green leaves such as red cabbage, spinach, parsley, etc. Avoid frying food and opt for baking instead. Use ripe avocado as a substitute to butter your whole grain bread sandwiches. Bake red potatoes in their skin. Avoid fatty sweets and opt for fruits instead. And remember that some cholesterol is heredity.
