12 Foods That Will Lower Your Cholesterol Levels

11. Vegetable oils

Oil is sometimes confusing especially because every manufacturer out there will claim that their brand is the healthiest.  However, if you normally go for butter, shortening, lard or margarine in your cooking, then you might want to change that up and go for something that will reduce your LDL. Instead of those, use sunflower oil, olive oil, or canola. Using liquid oil is of more benefit to you in terms of keeping your cholesterol levels in check compared to butter or lard. The best thing is that they do not alter the flavor. When baking you can go for coconut oil or ghee.
