Dear Ramesh Babu
Thank you for the question
There are several factors that can lead to increased levels of cholesterol. Some of the factors include genetics, stress, sedentary lifestyle, medications, an underlying health condition and daily diet etc. The type and quantity of fat in the daily diet influence the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood.
Some of the guidelines to be considered
- Eat a well-balanced diet including whole grains, pulses, lentils, fruits vegetables and dairy.
- Choose healthy snacking options in between your meals.
- Good amount of fiber especially soluble fiber can help lower blood cholesterol. Some of the good sources of soluble fiber include oats, apples, peas, citrus fruits etc.
- - Consume fresh, seasonal fruits as they contain many essential nutrients and are good sources of fiber.
- - Deep Fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
- Limit the consumption of high fat foods such as butter, cheese, red meat etc.
- Consuming low fat (skimmed) milk instead of whole milk is preferable.
- Restrict consumption of foods that are high in Saturated fatty acids and trans fats.
- Engage in physical activity for a minimum of 30-45 minutes for at least 5 days a week.
- Try to follow a good sleep regimen in terms of both quantity and quality.
