I dont think there is anything better for cholesterol than to excercise aka ride your bike. Of course you may want to counsult a doctor because im not one. So I say ride like crazy and watch your meats and junk food the biggest casues of cholsteral problems. maybe eat vegeteain a coupel times a week wich is real good for your heart and all of you from what i understand garlic is anothier good way to help with cholesteral. Of course im not a doctor so Id ask him. Do not take my advice as a substittution for a doctors.

c'mon ralph - we've been through this before.... you are not eating enough....

fyi: things that are high in cholesterol include things with animal fat - therefore red meat=bad for your diet.

lean cuisine - usually full of sodium and not enough food to fill you up.

try eating 5-6 small meals a day with equal amounts of protein and carbs in each one (rather tough to do). you have a foremen grill - use it to cook lots and lots of chicken. do you like tuna? eat that too! slim fast = bad. more complex carbs and green stuff all day - like have a salad with lunch and with dinner......

more?

slim fast, yeeeecccccchhhhhh... and even worse, its nothing but sugar.

you are better off having a bowl of low sugar/high fiber cereal with milk.

or cottage cheese with fruit.

or an egg white omelette with red & green peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and some cheese on top.

there's too much simple carbohydrates (sugars) in our diets, and not enough complex carbohydrates.

Unfortunately, there are cases when diet and excersise alone can't riegn-in the problem. Have you seen a doctor? See what he or she would recomend, but in the mean time ride like a mutha!

We try not to keep meat in the house, so we eat veg for the most part Mon-Fri, then we treat ourselves on the weekend. I am really watching mine, as my family has a history of choleterol problems. Good luck man.
