# An Ayurvedic drug Guggul is considered to be the best for cholesterol reducing regimen. It is considered that Guggulu reduces LDL by 35% and increases the HDL by 20% in just 12 weeks if taken regular and with instruction.

# Cook food with sunflower oil instead of solidified oils like cream and butter. This will help in lowering cholesterol level up to certain extent. Sunflower seeds contain a substantial amount of linoleic acid that is helpful in reducing the cholesterol deposits from the wall of the arteries.

# One can also use an onion juice to reduce the cholesterol. This will clean the blood and regulate the heartbeat.

# Take enough fibers in your diet. Fiber helps to lower the cholesterol pressure in the blood. It is useful in lowering cholesterol.

# Give up junk food, fried food and food available in packets. They may contain preservatives and therefore shoot up the level of cholesterol.

# Spicy food and oily food is to be avoided at any cost. Oily food increases the levels of cholesterol in the blood.

# Vitamin C is also very much important for lowering cholesterol. This can be taken with bioflavonoids for better results.

Very useful information. Regular or much intake of red meat also increases cholesterol. Try to eat more vegetables instead of meat. Dried fruits are also a contributor for cholesterol.
