My cholesterol levels are high, Could you please tell me how I can reduce them without tables. I have earlier used the medication for reducing the cholesterol levels which had impact on LFT. So thinking on reducing it through food control/exercise/Yoga etc. Please suggest me if there are any foods that can be consumed/not consumed? Thank you.
