6. Trans Fat-Heavy Foods
Trans Fat-Heavy Foods are to be avoided if you have high cholesterol. This type of food is high in fat, and typically comes from unhealthy sources such as fried foods, processed snacks, and baked goods. Eating these types of foods can lead to increased cholesterol levels. Try to limit or avoid trans-fat-heavy foods altogether to help keep your cholesterol levels in check.
Healthy substitutions include foods that are lower in fat and higher in fiber such as fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Make sure to read food labels carefully as well, as some food items may contain higher amounts of trans fat than expected.
