Diet: 5 Simple Steps To Lower Cholesterol

You can lower cholesterol without drugs by following some basic
steps that will not only change your cholesterol readings, but also
improve your health today and in the future. So often we use a
prescription drug and hope it will magically cure whatever ails us.
The truth is prescription drugs for lowering cholesterol do work.
The problem is both the short term and long-term side effects.

Even more dangerous than the side effects of prescription drugs to
lower cholesterol is not getting cholesterol under control. Over
time, high cholesterol can lead to numerous conditions of the heart
and arteries, not the least of which are atherosclerosis (hardening
of the arteries), stroke or heart attack.
