My total cholesterol and LDL was 257 and 159, respectively. I walked 150 mins weekly to start then more as time went on. In three months, my total cholesterol was 185, and LDL was 99. Did not change my diet. WALK and your cholesterol levels will lower. I go back for lab work in January. Hope my numbers are even lower
1.Avocados (without corn chips) 2.Walnuts (1 half cup per day) 3.Oatmeal (whole grain) 4.Oat Bran (no oat-bran muffins) 5.No meat (no pork, beef, lamb, veal) replace with fish 6.No egg yoke (if you have high cholesterol), you can eat egg whites.
Per day, Eat: 1 medium sized Avocado 1/2 a cup of Walnuts (on salads or alone) 1 to 1 1/2 cup of Wholegrain Oatmeal 1 large bowl of Oat Bran Also do these two things: i) Stop eating meat (pork, beef, lamb, and veal). Replace meat with fish. ii) Stop eating eggs (yolk). Eat egg whites only. Thanks Doc!!!!
My total cholesterol was 258. I got it down to 186. I incorporated oatmeal to pull from the blood stream, plant stanols to stop it from entering the blood stream, and 30 minutes 5 days a week cardio to increase HDL. I also try to get no more than 13g of saturated fat on most days. It works just have to keep working it.
@@thrshwll1526 I use Benecol chews and Benecol spread. I was using ChocoNUVO, instead of the Benecol chews, until their prices in 2023 just went through the roof.
Love this video Dr Joe. To the point without all the fluff.. age 78 cholesterol has always been in the 200s it’s now 242.. I’ll try these foods because I refuse to take meds.. Happy Holidays..Eat responsibly , all.
Keep working at it. Please watch this video as well th-cam.com/video/kGDnHVo_ulg/w-d-xo.html All of it. I discuss the principles of cholesterol reduction there
Thank you Dr Joe. I’m in the hospital because of my diabetes and you were more helpful and informative than the hospital nutritionist. You are not in the States. The meat industry here has a very powerful, political and dangerous lobby. So powerful that no doctor I’ve seen has the nerve to call out red meat as the danger it represents. Hence, in America diabetes and obesity in not only on the rise. It’s out of control. Thank you for this video. I’ve subscribed turned on notifications AND have shared this particular video with all my family. Please send out the video on walnuts. One of my favorite nuts.
No worries. Tomorrow's video gives an introductory angle to how we reverse diabetes. Following that the whole of June & July will be devoted to a step-by-step process of reversing diabetes and the video series will run over 8 weeks.
Ya man, Dr Joe uve now become my personal dietician guru advisor. Both myself and my wife will now follow your instructions and shall then return our results back to you to see how our progress on these diets ended up. Many Thanks from UK South Coast
Hi dr.joe i only want to share my experience last year although my ldl and total.cholesterol is ok,but my hdl is in the lowest range,but last summer here its the season of avocado and i eat it everyday i was surprised last june.my hdl is in the highest range already, i eat avocado and steel cut oatmeal everyday until now,i also have your garlic smoothie everyday,thank you very much for your advice, God bless you more
Rey GREAT INFO. Things I already know. Mine is more diet. Cholesterol is hereditary which is harder get down but not impossible. My husband got his down with diet alone. My LDL IS 230 but HDL IS 99. Even though my LDL IS HIGHER MY MY CHOLESTEROL LEVEL IS WNL. There is a ratio. You can’t just look at the numbers without doing the ratio. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
By the way, there is good evidence that HDL is not that protective. Completely over-rated. Watch this sample here th-cam.com/video/UuKmq3urGZs/w-d-xo.html
You're so right. I don't eat meat so I don't have problems with cholesterol. My cholesterol is just fine, but I'll pass this information on to other people❤❤❤
Thank you so much Dr. Joe. This has been so helpful because just 3 days ago I got tested and my LDL was extremely high raising up my BP. I have noted down all the foods that I should start incorporating in my diet and I cant wait for great results 👍
I am grateful for your information. I am glad l bumped into the video.This is because my last medical report informed me that my cholesterol level is 300 which is scary. This caused my search for tips that can help me. I am blessed listening to the video
Thanks Dr. Joe. I just found your channel. Love how you get to the point with added info. Will pass this on to my daughter who was called by her Doctor and told that her cholesterol was very high! Dr. Told her to Exercise. 🙏

How about GOUT the cherry juice, and what else would you recommend to clear out the uric acid? You are such an amazing person, with an amazing character, you reveal everything to help people with high blood pressure. Stopping the high purine foods, drinking cherry juice, I'm trying to help my husband, he has high blood pressure & gout, he doesn't drink, smoke or eat red meat (only grass-fed hamburger) had bypass last year, 155lbs, climbs ladders walks 3x wk. for 1/2 hr. pray for him. Loved tour video on blood pressure monitor "anxiety" he has that too! I just love how you explain everything, including this video about avacados, walnuts, oatmeal oat bran etc, and show us how to prepare it and how to exercise, to lower BP. God bless you and your family
Thank you for this video, God bless you Doctor. I have high cholesterol but didn't know i have to stop eating egg yoke and now i know. I have stopped eating red meat long time ago, i really don't like avocado but i have to like it now by fire by force. I also don't eat much of oatmeal but will adjust now. Once again, God bless you.
Good evening Dr Joe (babami) I seriously appreciate you for everything you are showing and telling us on your vedio. And How you expressed d 3 Good foods items that can help us was very superb. I have the feeling that you are a Nigerian. Because of how you expressed /pronounced Okro/ how you are using it. Thank you babami; Keep it up pls. Almighty God will continue to bless and support you sir.
💔I really finding it extremely difficult to lower my cholesterol, hypertension, blood sugars, I hope after this lecturing I’ll try hard to know what to do.
My cholesterol has been high since a teen but now I'm taking it seriously now since I'm almost 48 and my recent blood work shows my cholesterol reached 290. I also have anemia with a 3% total iron. I started taking moringa powder which lowers cholesterol and also has Iron along with Megafood Bloodbuilder pills. I am going to try the foods you suggest and retest my blood in September. Love your videos about cholesterol and iron!! I even have lentils soaking for tomorrow. Thank you so much for your helpful videos!!
Dr. Joe, you are so wonderful. You are not money minded as your aim is to see your audience in good health. May God reward you a millionfold. May I ask, if someone with pre-diabetes and experiencing high Cholesterol should eat peanuts and cashews? Remain blesses.
I'll be starting a diabetes reversal series that will run over 6 weeks. Should be starting in 3 weeks time. Be on the lookout for it. The video series will answer your question in detail
🎉🎉thank you. I just found out i have high cholesterol and pre diabetic. I dont want to be on the medicine that is prescribed to me forever, so i have to make this change.
Enjoyed your presentation, very helpful. But I believe what would be helpful the items you present-how to prepare as dishes. What not do put into items. Example: Oat meal. McDonald Restaurant send it but brown sugar is cooked when it. Then you are given small package green apple and rasins. Give a duet plan Morning-Evening-Dinner. Also some fish are fatty. which one is the best.
The presentation cannot be too long as many people don't have the attention span to watch all of it. The points you raised may be the subject of another video. Thank you
Thank you Doctor 👨🏾⚕️. Am so overwhelmed by this simple explanation of how to reduce my cholesterol. I have to keep eggs and meat 🥩 completely out of my meal. What about chicken 🐓 as substitute for meat. Thanks again my senior physician
If you have high cholesterol and you want to get those numbers down, then even chicken will be best avoided until the numbers are down. If you want to eat chicken afterwards, then it should be skinless chicken. Like I said in the video, fish is a better alternative
@@drjoetvMD thank you Dr 👨🏾⚕️ Joe. I have 155 from 200 in 2021 and 168 from 200 in this 2022, from my chart. Check up is annually following the system here in Massachusetts.
Thank you so much Dr Joe. My cholesterol has been in the 200s for several years it finally went in the 300s and they put me on rovastatin. So I will work diligently in getting it down to get off of this specific drug because I don't want to be on it. Love💕
Thank you from st Albans queens Nyc 🙌 🙏🏽 I needed to hear this my companion died oct 17 2022 he was 51 years old I'm 50 with high blood pressure as well I need a doctor like you in the big apple any videos for pre diabetes
Yes, I have a number of videos on lowering blood sugar. I haven't had time to assemble them into a playlist unfortunately. Browse the channel please. Thanks
Thank you for the great information. I have high cholesterol, and I have been working on getting it lower. I will try this, and I pray that I get it down. I will come back if it’s lowered to comment again.
Very difficult to balance different health issues. Protein and fat brings satiety as well, so becoming hungry may be a problem if fish isn’t easily accessible. Meanwhile, Oatmeal can spike blood sugar. Bit of a minefield! Interesting video. Thank you.
@@drjoetvMD ,,, Stop eating meat will have its negative effects as far as your hemoglobin/ red blood cells are concerned. I curtailed meat and my iron levels fell dramatically. The non- heme iron in veggies and plants are not readily metabolized. Had to restart meat again. The good thing is that my HDL is very good ( high) at 148. Total cholesterol is high at 5.8 . I exercised ritually.
@@michaell3711 If that figure of HDL you quoted is correct, I wouldn't be dancing with it. It's too high. Very high HDL is bad. I know people get excited about high HDL, but there is a sweet spot. Too high HDL is not a good thing. Just saying...
@@drjoetvMD ,,, HDL cholesterol normal range is up to 2.5 ,so mine is within range. I do have a lot of avocados, which is the main character of my HDL. Doctors have different views on cholesterol levels. I got to understand that it is the RATIO that matters. Cholesterol ratio is calculated by dividing total cholesterol by HDL. The truth is I am an healthy eater who exercises almost daily. All my other lipids except for hemoglobin levels (12) are great. My A1C is 4.8 and liver profile, creatinine BUN etc are all good. I am 54 with a BMI of 24 . I won't be alarmed about a HDL which is within reach.
@@michaell3711 HDL and its usefulness has been overblown. New data tells us HDL is not as protective as we once thought which casts question marks over the ratio you talked about. The data you shared about yourself is pretty good. I'm not trying to scare you. Not at all. It's just that there is research evidence to suggest that too high HDL is not actually a good thing. Sorry to be a pain in the bum
Great info and a joy to watch your caring attitude for your viewers. Do we pick 1 or 2 of these foods daily or eat all of them daily? I do like how you gave us the amounts to eat 😊
The idea will be to fit these foods into your weekly dietary plans. You don't have to eat all everyday but strive to include them in what you eat each week
@Dr Joe TV thank you so much. I was blessed to be raised by a Mother who taught me to eat good foods so they are the foods I enjoy still at age 65...avocados, oats, walnuts, salmon, vegetables, low glycemic fruits, nuts, seeds, salads, olive oil, olives etc...I also make homemade almond milk, elderberry syrup, pita bread and sourdough bread. I'll be watching more of your videos, and thank you again for your helpful advice and response.
You are a blessing from God and I pray that God continues to give you strength and give you the best of health so that you can continue to help others God bless you Dr Joe I love you
Thanks Dr. For all that good information. I'm concerned about my cholesterol level. LDL is always high. The last time I checked it was 267. Only now I realize I need to stay away from pork, eggs and meat. I will try to put the tap off
1 egg a day (boiled) probably won't do you too much harm if your cholesterol is high. The problem though is that human beings are greedy. Who eats one egg a day for instance. Even those who do will have it preferably greasy. Not helpful. Also context is important. Having your eggs in cakes, buns & pastries with refined flour just makes the cholesterol problem worse. The mindset will be, well they say I can have eggs even though my cholesterol is high. Not helpful. I will prefer those with cholesterol issues to stick to egg whites. That's a safer bet in my opinion
Walnuts are fantastic. Just be sure to get them whole in the shell (shelled ones are most probably already spoiled - which is worse than eating NO walnuts at all)
Thanks so much for the information. I really like your videos and follow them. Pls always put those of us in nigeria into consideration letting us know our kind of food that can help in these situations. I watched one of your videos that says strawberries are also good in lowering cholesterol, but in nija here we cannot get them easily.
Noted, Helen. But saying that I'm sure if you look hard enough you will any of these foods in Nigeria unless you are living in the countryside. Otherwise think about it. The foreign workers in Nigeria are not eating garri and foo foo (LOL). They are eating foods from their home country. If you shop where they shop for groceries, you'll find these foods. Guaranteed...
Thank you Dr. Joe. I have started eating the Quaker Oat & the avocado & my TotL Cholest was 219 & is now 201 & I believe it will improve. Do these foods also raise your HDL as well & also can you do a video on the best foods for a pre-diabetic issue & what foods to avoid to avoid recurrence of kidney stones # I have stopped/w the cheese & the meat (eat just the fish & chicken) but what else can I do to improve overall? Thanks
@@nwankwodoris101I wouldn’t. A healthier alternative would be to add Benecol spread to the hot oats. It will enhance the benefits of the oatmeal. Add some warm spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg and clove.
Great job, Doc. I love that you mentioned not eating eggs. And you are right. I tried eating 2 eggs a day for my protein needs and my cholesterol hit the roofs. It came down when I stopped. However, I drink oatmeal every single for almost 10 years but my cholesterol has never been that great. I guess I really have a cholesterol problem..
Dr. Joe, I’m so glad I tuned in to you today, I plan to use your greats tips on lowering high Cholesterol Thank You for your great tips on our health. 🤗
Now came across this video and I found it to be extremely helpful and relatable. I have high cholesterol and I am trying to reduce it and also try and live a healthy lifestyle. I am 60 yrs old and after raising my both daughters on my own and recently retired I now have time for myself so hence the reason for wanting to try and live a healthy life. I enjoyed this video especially when u said what needs to be turned off while trying to achieve a lower cholesterol levels so I will be looking forward to more of yr videos. Ty🙏
Thank you for this video. I look forward to your videos. I will try to eat these food for lowering cholesterol. Are you in United States? 🙏 from Los Angeles.
I enjoy all your post, I have to get my cholesterol down, so I am on your post all the time. You have very good advice. I thank you so much for your help. 😊
Thank you so much for your advices on health matters. Pls. can Air frying remove fats from meat etc so i can consume once a while? I am 67 and my weight is 128 lbs and 5.2 inches tall. My last cholesterol test was 99.9.
Moji, if you have succeeded in lowering your cholesterol levels to the normal range, then there is nothing wrong in having meat every now and again. However if you are still struggling to get those numbers down, then it is best to avoid it. And No, air frying doesn't get rid of the saturated fat in meat is the answer to your 2nd question
It's like what came first. The chicken or the egg. With all the technology we have to test whether eggs are good or bad for your LDL cholesterol, we still ask the question. If there is a medical white paper on this topic, can someone please share the link. Thank you 🙏
@@drjoetvMD the human brain requires cholesterol to function. Correct? So if we stop the cholesterol tap, where will your brain receive good cholesterol from? I am very sincere with my question because I am very concerned about this matter as it pertains to my health. Thank you.
A great video indeed; now i know why my cholesterol is low, i don't joke with avocado, walnuts and oatmeal. Please what do u think about low cholesterol? It's ok? i think it should be normal or no! Thank you so much Dr Joe👍🏽♥️
Thank you for this great informative video. You explained so well how to lower my cholesterol and what foods to stop eating while going through the process.

@@drjoetvMD thank you Dr 👨🏾⚕️ Joe. I have 155 from 200 in 2021 and 168 from 200 in this 2022, from my chart. Check up is annually following the system here in Massachusetts.
@@gotalk6874 Well done
Very timely information explained in very simple terms
Thank you, Marcia
That was so interesting Doctor, you explained it so well, thank you.
You're welcome
Thanks you for caring about our health
You're welcome
Dr. Joe. The best ever.
Thank you
Thank you so much Dr Joe. My cholesterol has been in the 200s for several years it finally went in the 300s and they put me on rovastatin. So I will work diligently in getting it down to get off of this specific drug because I don't want to be on it.
Love💕
Little baby steps will get you there gradually, Linda. Take your time. Implement the tips in the video and you shall begin to see results
@@drjoetvMD I will take care in proceeding with your information given today. Again thank you so very much.
Love 💕
Dr Joe. My HDL &.Triglcerides are within the normal range but my LDL is high. What should I do ?
@@eddyckw2352 Start with what this video is saying. Thanks
@@lindahall7465 have you since any improvement on your cholesterol after implementing the diet guide?
Excellent advice. Thank you !!!
You're welcome, Carmen
Thank you from st Albans queens Nyc 🙌 🙏🏽 I needed to hear this my companion died oct 17 2022 he was 51 years old I'm 50 with high blood pressure as well I need a doctor like you in the big apple any videos for pre diabetes
Yes, I have a number of videos on lowering blood sugar. I haven't had time to assemble them into a playlist unfortunately. Browse the channel please. Thanks
Thank you for the great information. I have high cholesterol, and I have been working on getting it lower. I will try this, and I pray that I get it down. I will come back if it’s lowered to comment again.
Watch this th-cam.com/video/u5RnLtnI6YY/w-d-xo.html
Thanks very much Doc. Joe we will try to follow your advice
No worries, Sophie
Very difficult to balance different health issues. Protein and fat brings satiety as well, so becoming hungry may be a problem if fish isn’t easily accessible. Meanwhile, Oatmeal can spike blood sugar. Bit of a minefield! Interesting video. Thank you.
Very welcome
@@drjoetvMD ,,, Stop eating meat will have its negative effects as far as your hemoglobin/ red blood cells are concerned.
I curtailed meat and my iron levels fell dramatically. The non- heme iron in veggies and plants are not readily metabolized. Had to restart meat again. The good thing is that my HDL is very good ( high) at 148. Total cholesterol is high at 5.8 .
I exercised ritually.
@@michaell3711 If that figure of HDL you quoted is correct, I wouldn't be dancing with it. It's too high. Very high HDL is bad. I know people get excited about high HDL, but there is a sweet spot. Too high HDL is not a good thing. Just saying...
@@drjoetvMD ,,, HDL cholesterol normal range is up to 2.5 ,so mine is within range. I do have a lot of avocados, which is the main character of my HDL.
Doctors have different views on cholesterol levels. I got to understand that it is the RATIO that matters. Cholesterol ratio is calculated by dividing total cholesterol by HDL.
The truth is I am an healthy eater who exercises almost daily. All my other lipids except for hemoglobin levels (12) are great. My A1C is 4.8 and liver profile, creatinine BUN etc are all good. I am 54 with a BMI of 24 . I won't be alarmed about a HDL which is within reach.
@@michaell3711 HDL and its usefulness has been overblown. New data tells us HDL is not as protective as we once thought which casts question marks over the ratio you talked about. The data you shared about yourself is pretty good. I'm not trying to scare you. Not at all. It's just that there is research evidence to suggest that too high HDL is not actually a good thing. Sorry to be a pain in the bum
Dr joe always comes with some useful tips he’s fab 👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾
Glad you like them! Andrea
Whstt liquid to add to these items?please reply as mu cholesterol is350.thankx fr yr reply.
Great info and a joy to watch your caring attitude for your viewers. Do we pick 1 or 2 of these foods daily or eat all of them daily? I do like how you gave us the amounts to eat 😊
The idea will be to fit these foods into your weekly dietary plans. You don't have to eat all everyday but strive to include them in what you eat each week
@Dr Joe TV thank you so much. I was blessed to be raised by a Mother who taught me to eat good foods so they are the foods I enjoy still at age 65...avocados, oats, walnuts, salmon, vegetables, low glycemic fruits, nuts, seeds, salads, olive oil, olives etc...I also make homemade almond milk, elderberry syrup, pita bread and sourdough bread. I'll be watching more of your videos, and thank you again for your helpful advice and response.
Thank you so much Doctor Joe, this came right on time for me, God bless you for what you are doing
You're welcome
Morning Dr Joe thanks again for sharing very informative 🙏
Good morning, Natalie
This advice is very helpful! I already incorporate some of the food items - will try some of yours. Thank you Doctor! 😇 🙏
You're welcome, Ingrid
Great advice many thanks
All great advice! Thank you Dr. Joe!
Glad it was helpful! Zulika
Your the 7th video I’ve watched and yours was the BEST.
Wow, thanks!
You are a blessing from God and I pray that God continues to give you strength and give you the best of health so that you can continue to help others God bless you Dr Joe I love you
Aww, Thank you, Leah
Thanks Dr. For all that good information. I'm concerned about my cholesterol level. LDL is always high. The last time I checked it was 267. Only now I realize I need to stay away from pork, eggs and meat. I will try to put the tap off
Yes, you need to stop re-filling the tank. Good idea
@@drjoetvMD thanks Dr. Joe. I'll surely be working on this
Great info as usual Dr. Joe; thank you and may God always bless you 🙏🌹
You're welcome
Thank you very much. I thought the consensus now is eggs do not increase your bad cholesterol if you eat them in moderation (say 1 egg a day)!
1 egg a day (boiled) probably won't do you too much harm if your cholesterol is high. The problem though is that human beings are greedy. Who eats one egg a day for instance. Even those who do will have it preferably greasy. Not helpful. Also context is important. Having your eggs in cakes, buns & pastries with refined flour just makes the cholesterol problem worse. The mindset will be, well they say I can have eggs even though my cholesterol is high. Not helpful. I will prefer those with cholesterol issues to stick to egg whites. That's a safer bet in my opinion
Thanks Dr Joe God use you to open my eyes God bless you
You're welcome
Wow I just learnt a lot. I am struggling to lower my cholesterol. I exercise, I stop eating meat, egg and bread
Glad to be of help
Thanks Dr. Joe for this information and video clip God bless you
You're welcome
Dr Joe thanks for sharing this posting. You make life easy with what I needs to eat o and the measurements. You are the best.
Thank you, Stella
Very informative video this video is so great I have to listen to it again, new subscriber and thanks a lot Dr Joe 😁🥰😀
Awesome! Thank you!
Walnuts are fantastic. Just be sure to get them whole in the shell (shelled ones are most probably already spoiled - which is worse than eating NO walnuts at all)
Thank you
Thank you Dr. Joe. Precise and to the point.
You're welcome
Thank you Dr. Joe. Very informative video.
You're welcome, Sumita
Thank you Dr. Joe for sharing this great information with us. 🙏🏾❤
You are so welcome
Thanks so much for the information. I really like your videos and follow them. Pls always put those of us in nigeria into consideration letting us know our kind of food that can help in these situations. I watched one of your videos that says strawberries are also good in lowering cholesterol, but in nija here we cannot get them easily.
Noted, Helen. But saying that I'm sure if you look hard enough you will any of these foods in Nigeria unless you are living in the countryside. Otherwise think about it. The foreign workers in Nigeria are not eating garri and foo foo (LOL). They are eating foods from their home country. If you shop where they shop for groceries, you'll find these foods. Guaranteed...
Thanks Dr Joe looking forward to correcting and lowering my cholesterol
I don’t want to take statins
You're welcome, Tasleem
Thank you Dr. Joe. Thank you so much. I've been eating 4-5 eggs many mornings with a recipe I found. Stopping that.
You're welcome
Thank you Dr. Joe. I have started eating the Quaker Oat & the avocado & my TotL Cholest was 219 & is now 201 & I believe it will improve. Do these foods also raise your HDL as well & also can you do a video on the best foods for a pre-diabetic issue & what foods to avoid to avoid recurrence of kidney stones # I have stopped/w the cheese & the meat (eat just the fish & chicken) but what else can I do to improve overall? Thanks
Here's a video on kidney stones th-cam.com/video/lK8YJVHB9vM/w-d-xo.html
Please should I add milk and sugar in the Quaker oats?
@@nwankwodoris101I wouldn’t. A healthier alternative would be to add Benecol spread to the hot oats. It will enhance the benefits of the oatmeal. Add some warm spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg and clove.
Great job, Doc. I love that you mentioned not eating eggs. And you are right. I tried eating 2 eggs a day for my protein needs and my cholesterol hit the roofs. It came down when I stopped. However, I drink oatmeal every single for almost 10 years but my cholesterol has never been that great. I guess I really have a cholesterol problem..
Add more lifestyle measures to what you are currently doing
Doc how do you knw you have high cholesterol issue
@@angelabeauty154 blood test
What other things are you consuming apart from the oats
@sleepright326 How did you prepare your oatmeal to drink, did you make a smoothie?
I'm glad you're back Dr.
Thank you, Antoinette. But I never went anywhere though. I have been publishing videos consistently weekly
My cholesterol is elevated, so I thank you for this video 🩷God bless!

Now came across this video and I found it to be extremely helpful and relatable. I have high cholesterol and I am trying to reduce it and also try and live a healthy lifestyle. I am 60 yrs old and after raising my both daughters on my own and recently retired I now have time for myself so hence the reason for wanting to try and live a healthy life. I enjoyed this video especially when u said what needs to be turned off while trying to achieve a lower cholesterol levels so I will be looking forward to more of yr videos. Ty🙏
No worries, Naz. I have quite a number of cholesterol videos on the channel, by the way. Browse the channel
You have every right to look after yourself now that your children have fled the nest. Go for it, Naz. Go for it...

Thanks for subbing!
I enjoy all your post, I have to get my cholesterol down, so I am on your post all the time. You have very good advice. I thank you so much for your help. 😊
You're welcome
Thank you so much for your advices on health matters. Pls. can Air frying remove fats from meat etc so i can consume once a while? I am 67 and my weight is 128 lbs and 5.2 inches tall. My last cholesterol test was 99.9.
Moji, if you have succeeded in lowering your cholesterol levels to the normal range, then there is nothing wrong in having meat every now and again. However if you are still struggling to get those numbers down, then it is best to avoid it. And No, air frying doesn't get rid of the saturated fat in meat is the answer to your 2nd question
Thanks for this info.
I will be trying these tips.
You're welcome
Bfeore 4 days i checked again now 467 still high thsnk you dc for your advice

You're welcome, Judy
Some say egg is good amd and you are saying egg is not good. Who do we believe here
Me. Eggs have cholesterol in the yolks. You can research it yourself
It's like what came first. The chicken or the egg. With all the technology we have to test whether eggs are good or bad for your LDL cholesterol, we still ask the question. If there is a medical white paper on this topic, can someone please share the link. Thank you 🙏
@@kubenmoodliar477 Quick tip. Plants do not make cholesterol. It's not in their DNA to do so. Animals do
@@drjoetvMD the human brain requires cholesterol to function. Correct? So if we stop the cholesterol tap, where will your brain receive good cholesterol from? I am very sincere with my question because I am very concerned about this matter as it pertains to my health. Thank you.
@@drjoetvMD not disputing this Doctor 🙏
A great video indeed; now i know why my cholesterol is low, i don't joke with avocado, walnuts and oatmeal. Please what do u think about low cholesterol? It's ok? i think it should be normal or no! Thank you so much Dr Joe👍🏽♥️
I don't "joke" ovocado or don't like ovocado ?
Diny is saying she likes it, Patty
I doubt it is way too low to be of concern, Diny. So you should be fine
@@pattycake8272 don't really get your question, but what i meant was that i like 🥑 so much!!
@@drjoetvMD ☺️😆 just saw this, thank you for answering her question😉👍🏽
Thank you for this great informative video. You explained so well how to lower my cholesterol and what foods to stop eating while going through the process.
