LDL: Avoidance of saturated fats and trans fats are mainstays of treatment to lower total and LDL cholesterol. One visit with a registered dietician can determine your ideal weight, ideal daily calorie intake depending upon the level of your daily physical activity, critique your eating habits and even give you a sample diet. Exercise, eating soluble fiber, taking omega 3 fish oil can help.
