Cholesterol is a fat-like substance basically found in non-vegetarian sources like chicken,
meat, beef, and pork, etc.
Excessive consumption of cholesterol-rich foods can cause the deposition of plaque in
the arteries, higher blood cholesterol levels, and ultimately leads to the blocking of the
arteries.
Saturated and trans fats found in packaged and processed food items like chips, ice
creams, sausages, and baked items like pies, cookies, and pastries also contribute to
higher cholesterol in the blood.
To reduce cholesterol in the body, several tips need to be followed, such as:
i. Consumption of high-fiber foods like fruits and vegetables is helpful in reducing bad
cholesterol in the body.
ii. Inclusion of healthy fats like omega-3 fatty acids from nuts, seeds, avocados , and
fish is beneficial in increasing good fat levels in the body.
iii. Increasing physical activity and exercise helps in reducing cholesterol in the body.
iv. Smoking and alcohol intake trigger high cholesterol in the blood. Thus , excluding
smoking and reducing alcohol intake helps in lowering bad cholesterol in the body.
v. Reducing junk foods, processed and packaged foods, and cholesterol-rich foods like
meat, beef, and pork can assist in lowering cholesterol levels .
