Good to hear that. I usually eat wholegrain oats for breakfast as a shake with fruits and milk. Not only is it filling but it’s very healthy. I really enjoy oats and to know it can actually be very beneficial for cholesterol levels is a major plus to continue eating it.

Great post and useful tips on preventing heart disease. I take oats meal regularly but I don’t find rice bran in our area. Salads also make a good serve of dietary fiber for breakfast.

3 is key! You should eat 3 portions of wholegrain foods per day to try and increase your intake of B-glucan, which is the important soluble form of fibre that has been shown to raise HDL and lower LDL. Remember, keep your low low and your high high!

I really need to change my eating habits. I hardly ever eat much of anything for breakfast, and what I do eat is not really that good for me. Surprisingly, my cholesterol levels were good when I visited the doctor a few months ago.

John,
Low cholesterol is not something that you should worry about

Foods that are high in fiber are also low in fat and full of vitamins, minerals and complex carbohydrates. You can’t go wrong eating fiber-rich foods. Fiber helps your body digest foods properly.

Thanks for this nice post.
But I have an other problem: My cholesterol is too low :0
I think I’m eating like a normal person.

Yeah, I eat almost every day a bowl of whole grain cereal with low-fat yogurt… You can also cut a strawberry and put it on top of all that (if you want it be a little sweet)… That’s how I like it anyways.

Nice post btw.

The reason fiber (particularly soluble fiber) is so successful in assisting the reduction of cholesterol levels is simple: It sweeps the fat out of the body before it can enter the bloodstream, where it can narrow and harden the walls of the arteries.

I have always wanted to know WHY studies show that oatmeal and other whole grains lower cholesterol. Thanks for that information. I still wonder how much of the cholesterol lowering is due to proper nutrition when doing these studies. If you are eating whole grains and oatmeal, you are less likely to be eating donuts and muffins. Just my thought.

I do believe that oatmeal helps reduce bad cholesterol. I don’t know if this is true but I heard eating nuts and raisins help as well. This is reference to Social Anxiety Disorder. I really never heard that niacin helps. I am definitely going to look into that.

This is a very informative post. Thanks alot. Oatmeal is an excellent food that reduces cholesterol. I also take a Niacin pill everyday it helps increase your “good” cholesterol level. Niacin can be bought at any grocery store or health food store. Exercise is also key when trying to lower your cholesterol.
You can do it!
