1) It is better to eat more plant protein (such as soy products) and complex carbohydrates (such as starch, etc.), and less simple carbohydrates (such as fructose, sucrose, honey and lactose, etc.).

2) It is advisable to eat more foods rich in vitamin C, because vitamin C can promote the hydroxylation of cholesterol, thereby reducing the accumulation of cholesterol in the blood and tissues.

3) It is advisable to eat more high-fiber foods, because dietary fiber is not easily digested by the human gastrointestinal tract. After consuming high-fiber foods, it can improve bowel habits, increase bowel movement volume, and allow cholesterol in the feces to be excreted in time, thereby playing a role in lowering serum cholesterol levels.
