Cooking low cholesterol dishes shouldn't be boring as long as you have control in using high-fats products. The most important things is to avoid meats that has streaks of fats as they are rich with sa5turated fats. Cooking oil is also an important considerations, if possible avoid palm oils, especially coconut oil that contain very high saturated oils. Other oils such as olive oil and sunflower oil is beneficial for our body as they plenty of HDL which soften the artery wall and neutralize LDL. Eat plenty of fish especially cold water fishes which have thick layer of fats, they should be rich in omega 3 and omega 6, however you should be wary that those fat layers can easily absorb heavy metals, pesticides and other toxins in the sea water, so it is better to consume fishes that are caught in the middle of the ocean far from more polluted coastal areas.

You might be bored with advices of eating plenty fruits and veggies, but yes they are our best friends, nothing can go wrong with consuming a lot of them, unless if they are grown improperly and contain many pesticides. If possible wash them with organic, non-toxic soaps, which hopefully dissolve any traces of oil-based pesticides.

It is a good idea to use Mediterranean herbs or Asian spices as they usually contain useful substances that can keep us healthy and also give us tasty dishes. For example, Asian people that often consume spices are shown to have lower incidence of certain degenerative diseases.
