COUNTERACTIVE MEASURE AGAINST CHOLESTEROL RICH FOOD

It is holiday time and naughty me have been indulging myself silly eating food that will raise my cholesterol level sky high.  So for a change, I have cooked salmon porridge as a counteractive measure.  Mind you, I have been eating this porridge for dinner last night plus breakfast and lunch this morning. I need to go for a blood test soon and so must be really careful with what I eat.
Fatty fish like salmon, tuna, mackerel, and sardines are good for me as they are a rich source of Omega 3 fatty acids and proteins. Scientific evidence shows that consuming fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids reduces triglyceride levels by as much as 25-30 percent, increases levels of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), and therefore reduces the risk of heart disease. The suggested intake is at least two servings per week.

Also I must make sure I eat a green apple a day.  Haven't been doing it for a few weeks already as I was preoccupied with other things.  However, I have been having lots of lemons which are also known to be great cholesterol busters.  

Then I read that eating a raw clove or two of garlic a day also works wonders.  It seems that garlic contains allicin which has shown to lower total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Several studies have shown that less than half a clove (900mg) of raw garlic a day can lower cholesterol by 9-12%. 

Adoi!  The things I must eat to get my cholesterol level in check.
