30-Day Diet Reduces Cholesterol
The article discusses the "Portfolio" dietary system developed by Canadian researchers in 2002. Its goal is to effectively lower harmful LDL cholesterol levels, surpassing the results of medications like statins. The system focuses on integrating four food groups rich in fiber and unsaturated fats, including nuts and legumes. It has been proven to reduce cholesterol by up to 35% within one month—comparable to the benefits seen with some drugs. Emphasis is placed on improving dietary habits, particularly reducing red meat consumption and following a Mediterranean diet, to address the main causes of high cholesterol in most people. Elevated cholesterol can lead to serious health problems such as heart attacks, strokes, and dementia. The system remains highly effective with strong adherence and is considered a safe preventative option, either as an alternative or a supplement to medication.
