Episode description

Lower Your Cholesterol

- In a recent study (July 2019) the Portfolio Diet lowered cholesterol by 27%

- This is a flexible diet that gives you 4 "food components" from which you pick low-saturated fat / low-cholesterol foods

- This is not a weight-loss diet - it is for lowering cholesterol

- If your cholesterol is very high you can combine this with a lower level of statin therapy

- The original diet is plant-based but there are variations that allow for small amounts of lean meats and dairy products

- I hadn't heard of this diet before but it does look like it would be another good way to bring your cholesterol down

- You can get more information from your doctor or download this Portfolio Diet Infographic
