9. Alcohol
It is important to know that alcohol can negatively affect your cholesterol levels. Consuming alcohol can raise your bad cholesterol (LDL) levels, as well as increase your risk of developing high blood pressure, stroke, and other health complications. Therefore, if you have high cholesterol, it is recommended to avoid alcohol consumption. Additionally, if you do choose to drink alcohol, it is important to do so in moderation. For men, this means no more than two drinks a day, and for women, no more than one drink per day.
