Is your cholesterol high?

Seven ways to naturally lower your cholesterol

- 

If you are diagnosed with hyper-cholesterolemia, there are natural ways to lower and maintain it at normal levels, so hopefully, you can eventually get off medications if you have already been prescribed statins. Here are seven ways to help lower your cholesterol level.

Drink water regularly and stay hydrated throughout the day. If you don’t drink at least eight glasses of water or more when you are physically active or in hot weather conditions and your cholesterol level is high, that means that your blood consistency is thickened. This leads to low blood volume, a higher concentration of LDL or bad cholesterol in circulation, and increased blood pressure that is damaging to the heart and entire cardiovascular system. It is important to intentionally drink water regularly throughout the day. Don’t wait until you are thirsty because that is already a sign that you are in a dehydrated state.
