It is possible to have up to 80 percent closure of arteries without ever feeling a single symptom! Here are 5 tips you can use straight away to start lowering your cholesterol today:1. Reduce fat in your diet. Buy leanest cuts of meat you can find. Regularly substitute poultry (without skin) and fish for red meat. Both are lower in saturated fat. Switch to low fat cottage cheese and yogurt, reduced fat hard cheeses and skim or 1 percent milk. 2. Eat no more than four egg yolks a week. Many people don't have to worry about eating cholesterol. Normal bodies adjust to increased intake by cutting back on regular product. However, since one third of Americans are cholesterol responders their blood cholesterol does go up when they eat cholesterol. You probably don't know if you fall into this category so play it safe.

You need to institute low fat cooking methods to keep cholesterol from sneaking back in to your diet. Remove fatty skin from chicken and turkey. Don't fry foods. Roast, bake, broil, grill or poach them instead. Use fat free marinades or basting with liquids like wine, tomato or lemon juice. Use olive or canola oils for sautéing or baking. Both are very low in saturated fat. Use diet, tub or squeeze margarines instead of regular. Watch for term "hydrogenated," which means some of fat is saturated.
