Exercise and fiber are the best ways to lower your cholesterol naturally. I’ve heard if you eat oatmeal every morning for a year it will lower your cholesterol by 10 points because of the fiber in it. Here’s a list of foods high in cholesterol, hope this helps. http://www.cholesterol-and-health.com/Foods-High-In-Cholesterol.html
Cholesterol is found in animal fats: all food containing animal fats contains cholesterol; food not containing animal fats either contains no cholesterol or negligible amounts. Major dietary sources of cholesterol include eggs, beef and poultry.[7]
Avoid animal products (red meat and dairy, especially), they all contain cholesterol. Also avoid hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils, processed flours, and processed sugar. Eat foods that contain a lot of fiber, such as fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.
Butter, coconut oil, any fast food, margerine, fatty meat or meat products, cheese in moderation, cream, ice cream, and cookies, cakes, pies, and pastries. If you have high triglycerides as well, avoid alcohol too.
To help your good cholesterol, which helps lower the bad kind, eat leafy greens like kale and brocolli, cold water fish like salmon and tuna, olive oil, and high fiber foods such as bran, brown rice, and whole wheat.
