    Introduction

    Having cholesterol levels that are higher than normal puts you at risk for cardiovascular disease. High cholesterol levels in the blood will eventually lead to clogged arteries that can cause a blockage to the heart or to the brain. If these arteries become clogged, it can produce a stroke or a heart attack. If a person is diagnosed with high cholesterol and does not change their diet the high cholesterol will have detrimental effects on their health. If you do nothing about your cholesterol and it is highly possible a stroke or heart attack will happen in the future. Dieting is one of the best ways to correct high cholesterol and both the low carb and the Paleolithic diet plans are excellent to help lower the cholesterol naturally.

    Many physicians and health care providers agree that the first line of action when the blood cholesterol levels are elevated is to change the diet. Dieting alone can often lower the cholesterol levels back to normal. Low carb foods, which are found in the low carb diet and the Paleolithic diet, are the right foods to eat to help the body to bring the cholesterol levels back to normal. Both of the diets feature foods that are lean meats (high proteins) and fresh fruits and vegetables, in particular green leafy vegetables. If you are accustomed to a diet of high carbs it means you probably have an addiction to junk food. Junk foods are high in carbs and contain a lot of sugar and empty calories. A junk food diet will help to raise cholesterol levels.

    The body needs fiber to help cleanse the body and lower the cholesterol. Both the low carb diet and the Paleolithic diet have the fiber from fruits and vegetables. Fiber from vegetables is one of the best ways the body can receive this necessary nutrient.

    Most of the foods included in the low carb diet plan and the Paleolithic diet plan are considered super foods. These are foods that highly nutritious and help the body to function better, including maintaining a better cholesterol level. Good fats, which make up a large portion of the low carb diet plan, help the body to have a stronger immune system and be better able to fight off the illnesses caused by high cholesterol.

    If you have been diagnosed with high cholesterol and your health care provider encouraged you to try dieting and changing your diet to lower the cholesterol levels you may want to show them this book. Let them see the recipes included in the low carb diet plan and the Paleolithic diet plan and ask them if the foods included in the book are ones that will help your body to lower your cholesterol levels naturally. Chances are they will say yes and give you their seal of approval on both of diets as good diets to help lower your cholesterol.

    It is wise when dieting to lower cholesterol to make the diet a permanent lifestyle change. You will find so many recipes within this book between the low carb diet plan and the Paleolithic diet plan that you can plan the meals for weeks without repeating the dishes. There are even healthy snack and dessert recipes.

Before too much longer you will no longer crave the junk and instead you will want to eat the healthy foods.

    Ironically, skipping meals is not a good idea if you are attempting to become healthier. Your body needs food for the energy to be able to function. When cholesterol levels are high, the body needs the right foods to help bring the cholesterol levels back down to a normal reading. Eat breakfast, lunch, and supper and include snacks in between the meals. Eat small to moderate sized meals, avoid over stuffing. Avoid eating out of habit and only eat when the body feels hungry.
