Eating oatmeal. Oatmeal helps lower your cholestrol. You have to eat it at least once a day or every other day to make a difference.

Here it is…your body uses bile to digest food, your body converts cholesterol in your system to bile, the soluble fiber like in oatmeal binds to the bile in your intestines and sends it through to be passed out of your system, so when your body needs more bile, it will take the cholesterol out of your system again. So the more soluble fiber you eat, the more bile is removed thus lowering your cholesterol level. Check on the nutrition facts of your food to see how much soluble fiber they have.
