If you have high cholesterol, chances are you are taking medication and have been told to exercise, lose weight, and stop eating certain foods.
We have listed below 5 foods that will actually help you in the process:
Oats—Oats are rich in soluble fiber, which lowers cholesterol by blocking its absorption from the intestine into the bloodstream. But it can take several servings a day (up to 1.5 cups of oatmeal) to have a notable effect. Other great sources of soluble fiber are barley, beans, peas, eggplant, apples, citrus fruits, and psyllium.
Stanols & Sterols—Like soluble fiber, stanols and sterols are plant compounds that reduce cholesterol absorption. They can be found in yogurts, cereals, bread, granola bars, salad dressings, juices, and soft-gels (sold as dietary supplements). It takes regular consumption of two grams of sterols and/or stanols daily to lower LDL by an average of 10%.
Nuts—All kinds of nuts, from almonds to walnuts, have been shown to lower both total and LDL cholesterol, due mostly to their unsaturated fats. Nuts also contain arginine (an amino acid that makes blood vessels more flexible) and other substances that help keep the heart healthy. But, since nuts are so high in calories, limit your consumption to a small handful.
Olive Oil—Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats, which lower LDL cholesterol and may also raise HDL (good) cholesterol when used in place of saturated fats. Be sure to look for “extra virgin olive oil” and “first cold pressed”.
Soy—Aim for 2-3 servings daily of tofu, soy nuts, soy burgers, edamame, or canned soybeans. An easy chili recipe is: Add 1 packet of vegetarian chili mix to 2 cans of soybeans, plus 1 can of pinto or black beans, and 1 can of low-sodium diced tomatoes; cook in a crock pot and season to taste.
Progesterone Cream Side Effects
Progesterone can have TEMPORARY adverse side effects. These TEMPORARY adverse side effects can be voided by avoiding Xenoestrogens in your environment. Xenoestrogens are found in household products like laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, and cosmetics. If women do not avoid Xenoestrogens in their environment, then 30%-40% of women taking progesterone in the form of progesterone cream, progesterone pills (Prometrium), progesterone oil, or progesterone suppositories will have adverse side effects. You can avoid progesterone bad side effects by avoiding Xenoestrogens.
Side effects are:
Temporary increased body weight on hips and belly
Temporary increased thinning hair
Temporary increased menstrual cramping
Temporary increase in painful breasts
Temporary increased painful ovaries
Temporary increased mood swings
Temporary increased hot flashes
Temporary increased fibroid size on the uterus
Temporary increased headaches
Temporary increased bloating
Temporary decreased sex drive
Again, these temporary side effects are due to NOT avoiding Xenoestrogens. Anything put on the skin has 10 times the potency of an oral dose. For instance, an oral dose of progesterone is 200 mg/day. However, the equivalent skin dose of progesterone is 20 mg/day. So you must be extremely careful of anything that is put on the skin. This includes laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, and cosmetics. Even so called “healthy” products from the health food store can have estrogenic herbs in them. High doses of progesterone cream over long periods of time can cause mental confusion – 200 mg/day is considered a high dose.
Reduce Diabetes Risks
Seafood helps protect Diabetes. People with diabetes who eat fish twice a week are 75% less likely to develop complications like kidney disease. This information comes from a recent study of more than 22,000 adults in the American Journal of Kidney Diseases.
Sunburn on brown skin?
Very dark skin types, which are most common in African Americans, while having more melanin, are found to burn. A recent study documents very dark skin can burn, even though it doesn’t show as much, is prone to sun damage, and actually more susceptible to developing brown spots. Protectant guidelines for UVA and UVB rays are just as important for very dark skin types as they are for ashy or fair complexions.
