4 ways to help reduce your cholesterol:
1️⃣ Start at the grocery store – you want your Saturated Fat to be 10% of your daily total calories. There is nothing wrong with Saturated Fat but it should be limited in your diet.
2️⃣ Increase your soluble fiber – there are 2 forms of fiber: soluble and insoluble. The best way to increase your soluble fiber is to eat more fruits and vegetables.
3️⃣ Maintain a healthy body composition – for men, ~20% BF; for women ~25% BF. Having lower BF% than this doesn’t necessary improve your cholesterol, but having higher could affect your cholesterol.
4️⃣ Workout – look, there are so many different recommendations for working out from various health organizations. I recommend 4 hours a week at minimum.
