Guest guest Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 My friend's hubby has a cholesterol problem. We were discussing it today. One of the changes they have made is an increase in exercise for him and they are thinking of going vegetarian. All this talk about pH and cancer fighting foods got me thinking. What happens when you have too much cholesteroL? Arteries clog up, right? Prevent a good flow of oxygen rich blood. Am I close? What foods/spices would most benefit a person with cholesterol problems? We all know which to avoid but are some especially helpful? My mom's best friend is in her 70s and has had cholesterol problems her whole life. Her body just makes the bad cholesterol. Here's the rub - she's been a complete vegan since she was 10 and walks everyday. She is able to manage her cholesterol levels by diet alone. It's gotta be the diet but what specifically about the diet? Any ideas? Dawne Free Pop-Up Blocker - Get it now http://companion./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
