not sure. I really would try and eat more grains and maybe try drinking some metamucil. I have noticed people with sluggish bowels tend to have problems with high cholesterol. also make sure you are drinking enough water to get rid of toxins in your body.
Can you please help me with question

It could be familial. If you have it in your family, you may need medication. Just being on a low carb diet will not do it. The best example is pork rinds. No carbs, but it’s fried pig skin. It’s not going to help your cholesterol.
Your best bet is the advice from above, pay attention to the cholesterol in foods you eat, and EXERCISE!!! It’s great for lowering your cholesterol. Veggies, garlic and plenty of other things can be found that will help.
Depending on your age and again family history, you may need medication.

Missy,
Please do not eat any more eggs, and eat as little chicken as you can and never fried, and eat no more than 4 ounces a day of kosher mutton, beef, or once a week salmon to satisfy the current B12 and niacin ‘recommendations’ with food and not with toxic synthetic supplements. Choose a regimen of low-carb low fat and <>high-nutrition<> and your belly fat will burn up shortly and your cholesterol will soon drop to normal levels as your liver heals and processes meat cholesterol better.
You will be in my prayers for you to do better soon.
My best to you,
A1

A few simple tips to your diet — like these — may be enough to lower your cholesterol to a healthy level and help you stay off medications:
1. Whole grain and Oat. Eating whole grain and Oat can reduces your “bad” cholesterol (low-density lipoproteins, or LDLs) and increase “good” cholesterol (high-density lipoproteins, or HDLs).
2. Nuts. Eating about a handful (1.5 ounces, or 42.5 grams) a day of most nuts, such as almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, pecans, some pine nuts, pistachio nuts and walnuts, may reduce your risk of heart disease.
3. Omega-3 fatty acid reduce LDL levels. Omega-3 fatty acids can lower bad cholesterol levels (LDL) and raise levels of good cholesterol (HDL). They not only lower cholesterol, but they help lower high blood pressure and cut cardiovascular risk, reducing blood pressure and the risk of getting blood clots.
5. Flaxseeds. Flaxseeds contain lignan and omega 3, that can block the production of LDL and increase your body’s ability to get rid of cholesterol.
6. Plant sterols and stanols. Eating about two grams of sterols a day which equals about two 8-ounce (237 milliliters) orange juice can lower cholesterol by up to 14 percent.
7. Blueberries. A cup of blueberries a day is more effective than any statin drug in lowering LDL cholesterol.
8. Apples. Eating about two apples a day, which equals about 12 ounces of apple juice, can prevents the oxidation of LDL cholesterol.
