Lowering Cholesterol With a Plant-Based Diet

One University of Toronto study found that people eating a plant-based diet rich in special cholesterol-lowering foods lowered their LDL cholesterol by nearly 30 percent in just four weeks.

• Oats, beans, barley, and other foods high in soluble fiber
• Soy protein
• Nuts [in moderation]
• Wheat germ, wheat bran, almonds, Brussels sprouts, and other foods containing substances called phytosterols
