Lowering your cholesterol doesn’t have to mean overhauling your entire life. In this episode, I walk through how small, strategic food choices can make a meaningful difference in your numbers—and your long-term heart health.
I focus on what actually moves the needle when it comes to lowering LDL cholesterol through diet.
