how to lower LDL cholesterol naturally

don’t underestimate the importance of cholesterol 🫶🏻

cholesterol is made by your liver & there are two types! LDL which is known as bad cholesterol and HDL which is your good cholesterol ✨

When your bad cholesterol is high it can affect your heart health! To reduce LDL naturally, you can make lifestyle changes:

reduce saturated fat & avoid trans fats: eat less fatty processed meat, fried food, lard, palm oil, processed deserts, processed snacks, & fast food!! Eating too much saturated fat changes how your body processes LDL cholesterol & makes it less efficient which raises your cholesterol.

increase omega 3’s: omega 3 fatty acids can lower your LDL & raise HDL! You can eat more avocados, nuts, seeds, wild caught salmon & other fatty fish. You can also take a high quality EPA & DHA omega 3 supplement.

eat more fiber: soluble fiber that’s found in oats, lentils, apples, brown rice, broccoli & more is fiber that attaches to the cholesterol in the intestines & prevents it from entering your bloodstream!

exercise regularly: daily exercise can help move bad cholesterol to the liver to be removed from the body! You could do yoga, run, walk, Pilates, cycling etc! Find what works for you 🥹

support your liver: limit alcohol & toxins! When you drink or smoke/vape it puts extra stress on your liver! By cutting back on those things, it makes your livers job easier & can process cholesterol better!

Hope this helps!✨
