A member asked:
Does instant coffee raise cholesterol? let's say 2 coffees daily with about 6 oz of whole milk?

I would guess coffee should lower cholesterol; however I would not use it to lower cholesterol if it is very high especially in familial hypercholesterolemia.

Not the coffee, but the milk. Talk to your doc about dietary adjustments and possibly treatment in case your cholesterol is high.
