ok, first of all u do not need dairy products, they are bad for your bones if u are no longer a child, exchange those for rice milk, and rice milk ice cream if u must: not soy milk b/c it has more cholesterol than non-fat milk.\neat lots of grains, like brown rice and grain bread with vegetables (preferably raw or slightly boiled/steamed).\nAlso, if u have access to a Japanese or Asian food market get some "Soba noodles" and boil them, they are delicious, and u dont need to drain the water after, u can just make it into a soup with veggies.\nAlso it would be good to get yrself addicted to sushi, preferably sashimi actually (just slices of raw fish).  So maybe u have some sushi-loving friends to help you out to make your own or maybe go out for some! :) I included a link (the 2nd one) of how to make your own sashimi, and note than u should exchange the white rice with brown rice or none at all.\nAlso:\nOmega-3 fish oil tablets to wonders for lowering bad cholesterol\nGarlic extract supplement (liquid)\nCayenne Pepper supplement (pills)\nthese are all perfectly safe and help reduce cholesterol as well as maintainng a healthy heart.\ncheck out the link below for some more cholesterol lowering foods.\nmy father has really bad cholesterol and has had 2 heart attacks in his life, but this new diet has been saving him.

1. Do exercise (just walkings and don't get exhausted). Always talk about this to your doctor or get a physical trainer. Exercise can raise the HDL (good cholesterol that cleans up you blood from bad cholesterol).\n2. Eat fish 2-3 times a week (salmon, tuna, macarella, fishes from cold water). They have omega 3, that helps to reduce cholesterol.\n3. Eat plenty of fruits and veggies (because of the fiber), and also grain cereals (like oat,oatmeal, grain flour). Fiber sticks to cholesterol so your intestine wouldn't be able to absorb it.\n4. Try eating pomello (grapefruit), it gots a substance that will keep vytorin (simvastatin) in your blood stream working more time.\n5. Cut off fat from beef or pork. Reduce the meat you eat and try poultry and fish. Reduce shortening and butter, lard, bacon.\n6. Try low fat milk.\n7. Cook with olive oil (high in monounsaturated fat), canola oil, safflawer oil.

To reduce Serum Cholestrol without medication, adopt a lifestyle that is conducive to normal blood lipids. What’s normal? Total cholesterol (T-Chol) less than 200 mg/dl, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-Chol)--the “lethal cholesterol”--less than 100 mg/dl, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-Chol)--the “healthy cholesterol”--more than 40 mg/dl. \n\nHere are the top 10 ways to improve your cholesterol levels. \n1. Decrease saturated fat intake. Saturated fats are found in all meats, skin from poultry, and tropical oils such as palm and coconut oil. Hydrogenated fats also count as saturated fat. You can’t eliminate them completely, but work at reducing the amount you eat.\n\n2. Decrease refined carbohydrates. When you eat too many refined carbohydrates (such as those in cake, candy, cookies, soda, and pasta), they can be converted to saturated fat by the body, and that can raise cholesterol levels.\n\n3. Increase fruit and vegetable intake. Research shows that as the servings of fruits and vegetables increase, T-Chol and especially LDL decreases (1). Your mother was right: eat your veggies!\n\n4. Eat 2-3 servings of cold-water fish such as tuna, salmon, or sardines every week. The omega-3 fatty acids help reduce cholesterol levels. Just don’t deep-fat fry the fish or add a lot of mayonnaise to your tuna salad.\n\n5. Exercise regularly. This is the only sure way to increase HDL-Chol levels. The more intense the exercise, the more HDL-Chol levels go up.\n\n6. Quit smoking. Cigarette smoking raises T-Chol and destroys HDL-Chol. Find a way to quit--whatever it takes--but do it.\n\n7. Take a fish oil supplement every day. Omega-3 fatty acids, specifically the EPA found in fish oil, can help lower cholesterol levels; a good target is 2-3 grams per day. Taking more should be done only after consulting with your healthcare professional.\n\n8. Drink green tea every day--hot or cold--or take a dietary supplement with the phytonutrient theaflavin in it. Both have been shown to lower cholesterol--especially LDL-Chol (2).\n\n9. Add almonds and plant sterols to your diet every day (3). Almonds contain omega-3 fatty acids and are high in fiber. Plant sterols are found in margarines such as Smart Balance.\n\n10. Use psyllium fiber three times per day. Recent research has shown that the fiber in Metamucil and similar products can lower both T-Chol and LDL-Chol--and constipation will be the least of your problems!\n\nHere’s a bonus: if you have weight to lose, lose it. Carrying extra body fat sets the body on a cycle of producing more saturated fat and subsequently more cholesterol than we need. You can lower your cholesterol without losing weight, but it’s easier if you do.\n\nTwo things: work with your doctor as you make these lifestyle changes. Getting serum lipids tested regularly is very important so that you’ll know what is and isn’t effective. Your physician should know what you’re doing to deal with the issue. \n\nSecond, and most importantly, if you’ve done all you can and your cholesterol is still too high, discuss taking a medication such as a statin to lower it. It’s more important to get your cholesterol in the normal range than it is to be stubborn about taking medications. \n\nReferences:\n1.Djousse, L., et al.

Normal values for cholesterol is from 150 mg/dL to 250 mg/dL.  so your values are still within the normal range.  Increased cholesterol from the normal range is not good for the heart and body.  How to avoid increased cholesterol values? Avoid fatty foods,( pork and chicken fat), dairy products ( cheese, butter, milk) eggs.  Exercise is also good to burn out the excess fats in your body and avoid their deposition in your adipose tissue.

The best I know tryglyceride is 3 molecules of LDL stick together. I read somewhere I cann't remember. LDL is what so falsely crowned to be bad cholestrol. But it is produced by own liver to carry out the repairing of weakened or "cracked" artery wall.... but when liver makes in excess then problems arise....\nMy personal experience, I have the level lowered by (i) regular jogging under mild sunlight, at least half an hour once, five times a week, at the pace that you cannot easily chat with the jogging-mate, if possible with deep breathing which will tripple the benefit.(ii) low sugar of all types (iii) lower intake of carbohydrates, cut rice or flour products and meat intake to half, and increase the intake of vege and fruit to stomach satisfaction.On top of all this I am on higher vitamins, minerals, & protein supplements. Vitamin c is very important to human body... body tolerable limit is you purge lightly, lower slightly that is your need. It varies from person to person. I suggest you try obtain the book- "Why animals Don't Get Heart Attacks... but People Do!" by Dr. Matthias Rath, M.D.\nIt is the best book that is ever read by me. It is near US$20.00. It is published by MR Publishing, Inc., Fremont, CA, USA. If you have problem obtaining it liais with me, may be I can help out.

Artichoke juice has been proven to reduce high LDL cholesterol.\n\nShrimp and other shellfish are fairly high in cholesterol; however, they are low in saturated fat. Therefore, these foods can be eaten in moderation -- even if you have high cholesterol.

"For Cholesterol"?\nDo you mean to lower it?  \n\nJust basically eat the Mediterannian Diet:\n"- high consumption of fruits, vegetables, bread and other cereals, potatoes, beans, nuts and seeds \n\n- olive oil is an important monounsaturated fat source \n\n- dairy products, fish and poultry are consumed in low to \nmoderate amounts, and little red meat is eaten \n\n- eggs are consumed zero to four times a week \n\n- wine is consumed in low to moderate amounts "\n\nYou should also try using "Smart Balance" instead of butter all around.  It even tastes better, IMHO.  My mom has really bad high cholesterol, and she has to be on this diet to not have to take medication for it.

Three cups of orange juice a day over a 4-week period can significantly increase HDL levels \n and improve a patient's LDL:HDL ratio, suggests this small study of healthy adults with \n moderate hypercholesterolemia. When Canadian investigators asked 25 men and women with \n elevated total and LDL cholesterol and normal triglyceride readings to drink 1, 2, or 3 cups of \n juice a day in three separate 4-week periods, those on the highest dose (750 mL) saw their \n HDL levels increase by 21% and their LDL:HDL ratio decrease by 16%. The researchers also \n observed a 30% increase in plasma triglycerides, but those readings remained in the normal \n range. \n\nVitamin C \nThe Dietary Guidelines (2005) have identified vitamin C as a “nutrient of concern” in the American adult diet, because only about 50% of U.S. adults consume adequate levels of the vitamin.(1) As you know, vitamin C is a very important antioxidant that has many functions, such as the promotion of healthy skin and gums. Vitamin C also enhances the absorption of iron from non-heme iron sources (iron-rich grains and other plant foods such as whole-grain cereals) when ingested at the same time as the iron. An easy way to make sure you get adequate amounts of vitamin C each day is by drinking orange juice. Just one 8-ounce glass of Pure Premium orange juice provides a full day’s supply of vitamin C.\n\nPotassium\nWhile you are probably aware that a potassium-rich, low-sodium diet can help maintain healthy blood pressure and help decrease the risk of stroke, a majority of your clients are not. No age group in the United States consumes the recommended level of potassium.(2) For people 14 and older, the recommended intake is 4700 milligrams/day.(2) \n\nSince potassium is found in many foods, but only in relatively small amounts, it is important to educate your clients about foods that are good sources of potassium.Pure Premium orange juice is one of these foods, containing 450 mg of potassium in an 8-ounce glass. Check out the chart below for more potassium-rich foods to recommend to your patients.(1) \n\n \n\nIf you are looking for other foods that contain potassium, try some of these: 1 baked potato (610mg), 3-ounces cooked halibut (490mg), 1/8 medium honeydew (365mg). \n\nFolate\nFolate has a wide variety of benefits including its ability to help reduce the risk of neural tube birth defects and promote healthy red blood cells. Unfortunately some Americans are not getting enough of it. An easy way to help your clients increase folate consumption is by recommending orange juice.Pure Premium orange juice is naturally a good source of folate, providing 15% of the daily value (DV). \n\n2005 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee Report. \nInstitute of Medicine, Food and Nutrition Board, 2004.

As mentioned above:  exercise (preferably aerobic enough to get you sweating) and soluble fiber* - oatmeal is one source (probably the best source), but isn't the only source.  \n\nAnother method of reducing cholesterol is to take niacin.  Note that niacin had a side effect called "niacin flush" which is rather unpleasant.  To prevent this, take a timed release version of niacin.\n\n*The more I learn, the more I find out that most health problems are due to either a lack of exercise or inadequate fiber.

Rice, sugar, and potatoes should be fine for your husband as long as they are prepared well. \n\nTraditionally, people with high cholesterol are advised to avoid foods with high levels of saturated fat and/or unhealthy cholesterol, such as that from fatty animal meat. Total fat intake should be reduced, as it is clinically proven to lower cholesterol with weight loss. Salt should also be reduced and monitored, as this can trigger higher cholesterol levels. High-fiber foods should also be eaten regularly.\n\nThough contrasting previous beliefs, new research shows that dietary cholesterol, such as those found in nutritious foods such as seafood or eggs, are less effective in cholesterol levels. \n\nBut back to the rice, sugar, and potatoes - these foods are great, and have good amounts of vitamins and minerals. It is what you add with them that will negate your health, such as creams, butters, and other high-fat sauces. \n\nGood luck! :)
