lowering cholesterol

[binny]

I have been having some weird symptons lately so my Dr did a full blood work up on me. Only thing that showed was a slightly higher cholesterol level.

She said it isnt high enough to warrant medication but that I should work on bringing it down. I go in for a more throrough exam next month but in the mean time I would at least like to make an effort to lower it.

I know I should be eating healthier and work out more but help me get more specific. I am walking more now and will work on my diet a little harder. Any other ideas? I have read different things about "super foods" that target cholesterol but it seems like they get mixed reviews.
Have you tried anything that really worked for you?

Flax seed will help a great deal.

Also, if he's going to do more blood testing he'll see it, but if you're thyroid is not functioning as it should (hypo), it will cause your cholesterol to shoot up. Adjusting that will fix the cholesterol, too.
