Why these recipes support healthy LDL
- Soluble fiber (oats, barley, beans, chia) forms a gel that binds bile acids, helping your body excrete cholesterol rather than reabsorb it.
- Plant sterols/stanols (nuts, seeds, legumes) compete with cholesterol for absorption in the gut.
- Unsaturated fats (olive oil, avocado, walnuts, salmon’s omega‑3s) can improve lipid profiles when they replace saturated fats.
- Sodium & added‑sugar mindful seasoning keeps blood pressure and triglycerides in check, supporting cardiometabolic health overall.
