In the last post I gave you the first step towards lowering cholesterol. Here is the third. Remember, by implementing these basic steps, you're establishing a solid foundation that will support heart health and increase the effectiveness of medications and supplements.
Step 3: Lose weight and/or maintain a healthy weight.
Weight has a significant impact on your heart health and cholesterol levels. Weight loss alone may lower triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol levels. Losing as little as 10% body weight could drop your cholesterol back to the heart healthy range.
All the best,
