A member asked:

What can you do to reduce high cholesterol naturally with diet and exercise?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lipids: By actually decreasing the intake of lipids to the body and increasing the metabolic consumption of the chemicals that can be used to make cholesterol in the body, it also changes the balance of cholesterol the body makes.
