A member asked:
To lower cholesterol i eat oatmeal , do i have to eat it three times a day?

No: Lipid disorders are genetic. You can not eat yourself to a lower lipid level. Oatmeal is a great breakfast choice for fiber and constipation prevention. The amount that it will lower cholesterol and related lipid numbers is small. I know the packaging touts the advantages. Have you been prescribed statin medication from a Doctor to lower your numbers? It is inexpensive and works well.
