Eating well and managing your fat intake, maintain your healthy weight, staying active and not smoking are choices we can make to reduce total cholesterol and "bad" cholesterol levels and increase "good" cholesterol. Changing what you eat can reduce your blood cholesterol level. If the level does not come down after a few months, your physician may recommend a stricter diet.
A healthy, balanced diet can lower your risk of CVD. If you already have cardiovascular disease, balanced diet will help you to reduce the chances of getting it worse and it will also help you to stay in shape longer and as healthy as possible. Coronary heart disease is a major cause of death in the Western World and increasingly elsewhere. Although it is a multifactorial disorder, the integrated role of diet attracts enormous attention since it is the one component which can be modified by all and is strongly correlated to population behaviour.
