Nutrients and foods to lower cholesterol

Cholesterol has a bad reputation when it comes to human health. The basics of cholesterol are actually fairly simple. Your body needs cholesterol for proper function of cells, nerves, and hormones. A healthy balance of LDL (bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol) promotes strong cardiovascular function. Consider a base guideline for cholesterol ratio to be 2:1 (LDL to HDL). According to the American Heart Association the recommended levels of triglycerides of 100 mg/dL or lower. 

You can control your cholesterol with 5 simple foods to lower cholesterol. If your blood work shows your cholesterol is high you can lower it naturally with the foods listed below and OPAL Nutrients

5 Nutrients and Foods to Lower Cholesterol: 

  1. Focus & Power
    Focus & Power was designed to contain natural coenzyme Q10 with nano-colloid delivery for proper absorption.* The technology used in Focus & Power creates a formation of a nano-colloidal solubilized CoQ10.
  2. Soluble Fiber
    Foods high in soluble fiber are fruits, vegetables, some nuts and seeds. Foods containing soluble fiber will help bind cholesterol in the digestive system. This process will allow for proper excretion of cholesterol. 
  3. Natural Olive Oil
    All natural olive oil will increase HDL cholesterol levels. 
  4. Omega-3 Fats
    Foods containing high levels of omega-3 levels like wild salmon, will help naturally increase HDL cholesterol. Omega-3 fats will also help lower your overall risk of cardiovascular disease. 
  5. Turmeric
    Spices such as turmeric, basil, rosemary and more contain high levels of antioxidants to naturally lower cholesterol. 
  6. Garlic
    Due to the sulfur compounds, garlic will naturally clean your arteries. Garlic is also beneficial for your immune system. 

 Along with adding increasing your intake of these foods, it is important to avoid certain foods as well. Certain foods common in most diets will increase your bad cholesterol which in turn will destroy your healthy cholesterol levels. Avoid foods such as sugar, alcohol, hydrogenated fats, caffeine, processed meats, refined grain products and trans-fat. These foods will cause inflammation, increase LDL cholesterol and risk of cardiovascular disease.
