Those who care about their health often take constant preventive actions. Among these there are also the annual check-ups that intend to check the health of different parts of our body. One of the most trivial operations that should be done, precisely at least once a year, are blood tests. In fact, through these we can verify many values.
One of them is cholesterol. If this is high, it may be the fault of some foods we consume. Today to help out we make a small list. Here, according to sector studies, are the three unsuspected foods to avoid for those suffering from high cholesterol. Let’s find out together and maybe, in some cases, try to limit them.
The three unsuspected foods to avoid for those suffering from high cholesterol
The first category of this mini guide is offal. We are therefore talking about the internal organs of animals such as, for example, the brains, the liver, the lungs and the kidneys.
These foods, despite being very protein, contain, in fact, a large amount of fat and cholesterol. In a 100-gram portion of liver, about 4.5 grams and about 191 milligrams can be counted respectively. This is why they are to be avoided for those with high cholesterol or gout problems.
The second group to watch out for is that of seafood and some types of crustaceans. We are therefore talking about mussels and clams, but for example also lobster. Again to give an example, the latter contains 85 milligrams. Also avoid i calamari.
The last on this little list
And finally here is this group of foods: dairy products, a demonized category for diet and abdominal bloating. Although fatty cheeses such as semi-mature or seasoned cheeses should be limited or even avoided, light ones such as mozzarella, for example, are preferred.
Better not to consume whole milk or yogurt and prefer their skim versions.
