10 Ways To Lower Cholesterol

Consume Polyunsaturated Fats

Polyunsaturated fats contain multiple double bonds, making them different from saturated fats. Studies have shown that they would lower levels of LDL cholesterol and reduce the overall risk of developing heart disease. Also, polyunsaturated fats would help lower the risk of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Omega-3 fatty acids are a special form of polyunsaturated fat that can benefit heart health. They can be found in fish oil supplements and seafood, such as tuna, herring, mackerel, or salmon. [3]
