I need to know what i should not eat, in order to keep my cholestrol down?

Fatty/fried food : Eat healthy, with more servings of fruits and vegetables. Also remember that food consumed accounts only for one third of cholesterol levels as the other two third are manufactured by your liver. As important than lower ldl(bad) cholesterol is to improve HDL (good) cholesterol. And the only way to do that is with more exercise.
