Cholesterol Down, Revised Edition: Ten Simple Steps to Lower Your Cholesterol in Four Weeks--Without Prescription Drugs

A patient-proven ten-step plan to take control of your cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease without drugs, from renowned nutrition and fitness expert Dr. Janet Brill.

For the millions of people with high cholesterol, statins are often the first-line treatment. While these medications are effective for many, they come with unpleasant side effects and need to be taken for life. Patients who want to reduce their dosage or the need to take them altogether have another option: the Cholesterol Down Plan from registered dietitian and nutritionist Dr. Janet Brill.

Featuring her best cholesterol-reduction tactics, Dr. Brill’s breakthrough program can lower your LDL cholesterol as much as 47 percent in just four weeks. The key is to incorporate six heart-healthy foods and two supplements into your diet, along with easy-to-follow strategies for eating fewer calories and enjoying more movement. In this fully revised edition of Dr. Brill’s classic book, she explains the ten “prescriptions” of her powerful plan and the latest science behind cholesterol-lowering lifestyle changes, including:

• How whole grains, psyllium husk, and phytosterols help reduce LDL cholesterol in your bloodstream • How everyday staples, such as oatmeal and apples, slow the absorption of cholesterol in your digestive tract • Why reducing your caloric intake is key for cholesterol reduction and may even improve your longevity—no restrictive diets needed • Why walking thirty minutes a day cuts dangerous cholesterol-raising belly fat

With everything you need to stay focused, including a daily checklist, a six-month chart for tracking LDL levels, sample menus, and seventy-five delicious heart-healthy recipes, Cholesterol Down offers a safe, effective alternative or complement to statins.
