A medical expert has revealed how individuals can reduce their cholesterol levels without relying on statins.  

Dr Roberto Lobelo, a cardiac specialist, emphasized the importance of regular exercise and noted: "The AHA (American Heart Association) recommends that all adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise, or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise, per week. That can include walking, swimming, lifting weights, dancing or whatever else you enjoy and can do without injury."

Diet is equally crucial, with specialists advocating for the portfolio diet detailed by Andrea Glenn, a nutrition researcher at New York University, to include "soy products like tofu and other plant-based proteins like beans, lentils and chickpeas; viscous-fibre-containing foods like oats, barley, psyllium husk, berries, apples and citrus fruits; nuts and seeds; avocado; and healthy plant-based oils like canola oil and olive oil." This regime has been shown to significantly decrease cholesterol.
