3 Ways to Naturally Lower Your Cholesterol

3 Ways to Naturally Lower Your Cholesterol Through Diet

Wouldn't you love to change your diet rather than taking a medication to lower your cholesterol? Is that even possible? Well, this week that is exactly what we are going to talk about.

There are so many different things that go into your risk of having a heart attack that you can improve through lifestyle change. Things like quitting smoking, managing obesity, controlling diabetes and taking charge of high blood pressure. But this week we are going to focus on one of the most common risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and that is high cholesterol. To be even more specific, we are going to discuss high levels of ldl, which is low-density lipoprotein.

My patients always ask me how to lower cholesterol through their diet, so I boiled it down to these three recommendations, which are science based and practical, just like me. Watch now to find out more.

Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”. The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way.

I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.
