Cholesterol is a waxy fat-like substance made in your liver or obtained from food that your body needs to make new cells. But too much cholesterol can lead to heart disease and stroke.
LDL (low density lipoprotein or ‘bad cholesterol’) builds up inside your arteries, which causes them to narrow and causes heart disease or stroke.
HDL, (high density lipoprotein or ‘good cholesterol’) carries LDL away from your arteries and back to your liver where it's broken down and processed by your body.
Triglycerides are fats in your body which store excess fat from your diet. When you pair a high LDL with triglycerides, it leads to atherosclerosis.
A high triglyceride level combined with high LDL / low HDL cholesterol is linked with fatty build ups within the artery walls, which increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Hence, its essential to keep LDL low and HDL high.
Triglycerides + HDL + LDL = Increased Risk
A person with high cholesterol levels often has no signs or symptoms and without routine screening and regular blood tests may have a heart attack without warning! That is why it is important to be aware and act on its risk factors given below -
Obesity
Diet
Lack of physical activity
Smoking
Stress
Hereditary
Making nutrition changes and lifestyle modifications is the first step to lower your risk of heart disease and save yourself from significant medical challenges later. Knowing which fats raise LDL (bad) cholesterol and which ones don’t is key to lowering your risk of heart diseases.
Increase intake of MUFA and PUFA (↑HDL and ↓LDL)
e.g. nuts, seeds, olive oil, Omega-3, peanut butter
Reduce intakes of saturated (except MCTs) and trans fatty acids (↑LDL)
e.g. hydrogenated oil, fried fast food, red meat, full fat dairy products
Reduce processed sugar (↓HDL)

Testimonials
My name is Kalpana Rathod. I am 45 years old. I have started this diet plan to reduce weight. I have health problems like cholesterol, breathing problem and knee pain. My weight was 71 before I consulted you. After joining I reduced to 63. I followed this diet plan for four months. I got to know alot about food like what to eat and what not to eat. My cholesterol became normal. Breathing problem also stopped. Now mostly I eat according to the diet. In the morning I eat dryfruits, fruit, milk, moong dal, coconut water. In the lunch I eat jawari roti, vegetable, salad, buttermilk. In the evening I have green tea and a fruit. In the dinner I eat some snack and juice.
