If your cholesterol is creeping upward your doctor has probably told you that diet and exercise the traditional cornerstones of heart health could help to bring it down and if youd prefer to make just one change at a time to lower your cholesterol naturally you might want to begin with your diet. The singular focus on treating cholesterol as a means to prevent heart attacks is leading to the deaths of millions of people because the real underlying cause of the majority of heart disease is not being diagnosed or treated by most physicians for example i recently saw a patient named jim who had normal cholesterol levels yet was taking the most powerful statin on the market crestor. A study of 24 adults with high blood cholesterol came to the same conclusion where eating a diet high in monounsaturated fat increased beneficial hdl by 12 compared to a diet low in saturated fat . For patients who cant tolerate cholesterol lowering statins natural remedies like bergamot garlic and green tea may be a useful alternative based on a recent statement published in the journal of the american college of cardiology
