How to Lower Cholesterol Naturally

How to lower cholesterol naturally is as simple as looking in your pantry and examining your fitness regime. Cholesterol is a waxy, fat like substance that presents itself naturally in cell walls and membranes everywhere in your body. Your body uses this fat to produce hormones, vitamin D and the bile acids that help to digest it.

Phytochemicals

With the passage of time, a north american diet appears to almost always contain more fatty processed foods and less natural plant based foods than in the past. The end results of this obvious trend can be seen in research statistics relating to cancer, heart disease, strokes, elevated cholesterol levels and many other forms of degenerative diseases suffered by numerous individuals.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E presents itself in eight forms called isomers, four of which are tocopherols and the other four are tocotrienols.

All the isomers have chromanol rings with hydroxyl groups which provide the hydrogen atom the component to reduce the free radicals to make a hydrophobic side chain which penetrates through the biological membranes of the body.


Vitamin B6

Vitamin B6 (also known as Pyridoxine, Pyridoxamine or Pyridoxal) is a vitamin that can easily be dissolved in water which means the body is not able to store it for a long time. This also means that person should get a normal supply of it since it is easily excreted through the urine.
