FOOD AND HOMEOPATHY FOR HIGH CHOLESTEROL

Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in the blood. The body needs cholesterol to build healthy cells. But high levels of cholesterol can raise the risk of heart disease.

With high cholesterol, fats and other substances can build up in blood vessels called arteries. This build up is called plaque. As more plaque forms over time, the arteries can become narrowed or clogged. That makes it hard for enough blood to flow through the arteries. Sometimes a piece of plaque can break loose and form a blood clot. The clot may cause a heart attack or stroke.  

High cholesterol can be inherited, but it’s often the result of unhealthy lifestyle choices, and thus preventable and treatable. A healthy diet, regular exercise and homeopathy medicine can help lower it.

FOOD

Food is a powerful stuff for controlling many diseases including high levels of cholesterol in blood.

PLANT STEROLS:  Soya is a rich source of hormone-like substance called plant sterols. They are cholesterol busters. Other plants such oats, barley, and okra, contain soluble fibers that also reduce cholesterol level in blood. A diet consists of 50 gm soya, 35 gm almonds, and 25 gm of soluble fibers from oats and vegetables are ideal for controlling cholesterol.

NIACIN: Taking Niacin or Vitamin B3 is the most effective way to raise HDL levels and reduce LDL. 1000 mg niacin is ideal. Liver, Chicken Breast, Tuna, Salmon, Turkey, Pork, Ground Beef is the rich source of niacin.
