Cholesterol can be good and bad.
The good cholesterol, called the HDL is really good for your body. While the
bad cholesterol called the LDL harms your heart and general well-being.
There are some food items which
will boost your HDL. Don’t feel bad about consuming cholesterol for once!
Dark Chocolates
100 gm of dark chocolate everyday
raises the HDL level by 9 percent in a week. But beware! That’s loads of
chocolate, worth 500 calories! Watch your chocolates, but don’t deter from
having them. Try, smaller doses (15 gm) over a long period of time. That should
be helpful.
Salmon
Consume salmons, other fatty
fishes like mackerel, herring, sardines. 115gm of these fishes every week for
four weeks should increase the HDL level by 4 percent.
Berries
Have plenty of berries, even if
they aren’t fresh! A cup of berries every day for eight weeks, increases the
HDL by 5 percent.
Eggs
Eat egg every day for 12 weeks,
and the HDL will increase by as much as 48 percent!
Go ahead! Have a mouthful of
these good cholesterol rich food every day!
