Lower cholesterol levels can protect against cancer
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
Karen Collins, a registered dietitian, talks about saturated fats and how to stay away from them by populating your diet with lean foods that prevent the onset of heart disease and cancer.
As studies show the impact blood cholesterol has on rates of heart attack and stroke, experts keep lowering the blood cholesterol levels people should strive for to stay healthy.
Although some people say they've tried everything to lower their cholesterol, they may not realize how many of the foods they eat affect it.
With smart food choices, most people can lower their cholesterol significantly and reduce their risk of cancer, too.
The most vital step you can take in lowering your blood cholesterol is to eat less saturated fat.
If you think you've been doing this and your blood cholesterol still remains high, keep a diary of everything you eat and drink for a few days.
Then consult an online diet analysis site or a registered dietitian to check your saturated fat total for those days.
