Suggest Natural Ways Of Keeping Cholesterol Under Control
I am a 55 yr old yoga teacher. I eat VERY healthy, weigh 115 at 5' 2". I am HEALTHY...but just got my cholesterol checked. The total is 242 with my HDL only 43 and my LDL 155. Help! I don't want to take medication. I would like to fix this naturally. I believe my body, for some reason, is producing this cholesterol. Is there a way to tell my body to stop?

Hi,
Actually you can't tell your body to stop producing bad cholesterol. But you can reduce it with some products such as fish oil.
And I would like to mention that if you don't have high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, and heredity of heart attacks in your family, there is nothing to worry. Just keep following healthy lifestyle and your cholesterol level will not affect you.
Hope I could help you
Wishing you good health
