Lifestyle medicine offers a natural approach to managing high cholesterol levels by focusing on dietary and lifestyle changes. A diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, and rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, can help lower cholesterol levels. Regular physical activity, such as aerobic exercise, can also improve cholesterol levels and overall heart health. Avoiding smoking and limiting alcohol intake can further benefit cholesterol levels. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight and managing stress through techniques like yoga or meditation can contribute to better cholesterol management.
