Healthy: Increasing the dietary intake of oat products, legumes and other high-fiber foods can play a significant role in decreasing "bad cholesterol" (ldl) levels. Oatmeal, oat bran, beans, barley, and prunes and apples are great. Wild salmon, sardines and anchovies are all rich sources of omega-3 fatty acids hich lower ldl. Olive oil and soy products help too.

High fiber: a high fiber diet, with plenty of fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains will help you to lower your cholesterol. Cholesterol is found in animal fat, so try to decrease your intake of those products as well.
