How can I manage my cholesterol through diet to improve my overall health?

Let's cut to the chase and get right down to the heart of the matter (I'm sorry, dorky but I couldn't resist). A person's health is vital towards a long, happy life. And taking care of yourself through adequate nutrition is the most important thing you can do to stay in tip top shape.

A heart healthy diet and an overall awareness about cholesterol in your body is a vital component as well. Regular exercise and a balanced, nutritious diet are the easiest ways to combat high cholesterol. More important than fighting off high cholesterol is making sure the ratio of HDL to LDL is on target.

The LDL number is the type of cholesterol to be weary of and to keep to keep low. It's the most detrimental to your health. In terms of food, there a number of foods to eat to protect your heart.

Many products on the grocery store shelves today will boldly promote their heart healthy seals. But even still, simple foods like whole grains, lean meats, a wide variety of fruits and veggies, low fat dairy, and a moderate intake of unsaturated fats will surely do the trick. Some of my top recommendations include whole grains such as steel cut oats, whole wheat breads and pastas, and and unprocessed grain that has high fiber levels.

Fiber is key in heart health. To reduce cholesterol, stay away from full-fat dairy and fatty means. Opt for lean meats and skim milk products.

Also in regards to fat, limit your total intake and get your fat from Omega 3 sources where possible - almond, walnuts, avocado, fish, olive oil, etc. Those are a few basics to get you started. Hope it helps!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
