3 Foods to Lower Cholesterol
Here are three foods you can incorporate into your diet to promote a lower cholesterol.
1. Navy Beans
Navy beans are a great source of dietary fiber. Dietary fiber promotes a lower cholesterol level, specifically soluble fiber which can lower LDL cholesterol 1% for every 1-2 grams of soluble fiber consumed daily. Aim for 25-35 grams of dietary fiber daily. Cooked navy beans provide 6 grams of fiber per ½ cup.
Some additional sources of dietary fiber include broccoli, oatmeal, blueberries, and brown rice.
