How can I bring down my cholesterol levels?
If you do not have hereditary hypercholesterolemia, I advise you look to lifestyle and environmental actions to help lower cholesterol, such as: for 90 days 1) stop eating meat 2) stop eating and drinking dairy, 3) get 7-8 hours uninterrupted sleep at night, 4) walking exercise 10,000 steps/day, 5) eat enough fiber to have 1 - 3 BMs daily, 6) eat 3-5 servings of vegetables daily, 7) eat 2 - 4 servings of fruits daily and 8) check your cholesterol levels in 90 days. If there is no significant reduction in your cholesterol, then you need a comprehensive physical exam. Wishing you well, Lindy Burnham, MD FAAFP READ MORE
