Cholesterol

Surprise! Current research shows that cholesterol has nothing to do with heart disease. Just another ploy to keep you on drugs the rest of your life. And, statin drugs actually cause other problems. But you still see the same old tired reports on the medical watch segments on TV.

Cholsterol does play a role in heart disease, but it is not the cause. Here’s some foods you can eat to lower your cholesterol.

Lower Bad Cholesterol with –

Almonds, apple cider vinegar, avocado, barley, beans, beer, blueberries, broccoli, carrots, chili peppers, cinnamon, cranberries, eggplant, garlic, grapefruit, green tea, lemons, limes, oat bran, oatmeal, olive oil, onions, oranges, peanuts, pecans, pistachios, red grapes, strawberries, walnuts, whole grains

Increase Good Cholesterol with –

Chocolate, fiber, oatmeal, omega 3s, onions, red wine, whole grains, exercise

Beating heart disease doesn’t taste too bad, does it? 😉

In any event – instead of repeating myself like a broken record, just eat a balanced diet of real foods. Eat your fruits and vegetables. I can’t stress how important that is for your overall health – no matter what else you eat.

Get some exercise and enough sleep.

If you are taking statin drugs, be sure to take COQ10 supplements. Statin drugs deplete your bodies COQ10, which already decreases as we age.
