15 Foods That Lower Cholesterol

Avocado

Thanks to the monounsaturated fat and fiber, avocados would help your body reduce the total amount of cholesterol, especially bad ones, and triglycerides. In addition, this kind of fruit is high in plant sterols and dietary fiber, which could decrease the absorption of cholesterol in your intestine. The key is to use them in replacement of saturated fat foods. Just think dice avocadoes instead of cheese in your burrito bowl or sliced avocados rather mayo on your daily sandwich. Many people love avocado guacamole and toast. If you want to add some creativity, consider making a satiating and creamy base for your smoothies. [7]
