Comments (16)Beverly, I have hi cholesterol too. I eat EGGLANDS BEST EGGS. They are lower in cholesterol and have omega 3 fats. Three a week is recommended. Sometimes I have more, but sometimes a week goes by and I eat NO eggs...so it balances out and I don't feel deprived. You can also use EGG BEATERS for cooking breads and such. BLOOD CHOLESTEROL is NOT DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTED TO FOOD CHOLESTEROL! You body manufacturers cholesterol and just about every body part (skin included) uses cholesterol! Some people naturally have better levels than others. I have cut down on BAD fats (saturated). I try to LIMIT my intake of cured meats. Sometimes I buy the pre-cooked Oscar Mayer Bacon - it's very thin and not so fatty. Usually in the summer when I want a REAL bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich. I've learned to eat tuna a few times a week and I've learned to eat more fish. I love Tilapi and catfish fried in Olive oil! Sometimes I broil it or bake it. Steamed E-Z Peel shrimp boiled with CRAB BOIL is good! It's taken me a few years, but I've gotten more and more away from beef and pork. I used Canola or Olive oil. BAD FATS and overeating add to our clogged arteries. But hypercholesterolemia (too much cholesterol) is also GENETIC (called familia hypercholesterolemia) and chaning the way you EAT helps and also taking medication. Roughage will also help eliminate cholesterol. I eat oatmeal mixed with oat bran, wheat bran in yogurt, whole wheat products...and I try to incorporate Flax seed in things. I use it in whole wheat bread recipes mostly. Oat bran and wheat bran is available in your grocery store, usually near the oatmeal section. There is information on reversing clogged arteries...Dr. Andrew Weil, Dr. Bob Arnet....look for some of their books! EXERCISE is also a big factor! I asked my Doctor about my high cholesterol and I said, "Based on your numbers, I should be dead". That was over 15 years ago. I found that I LOVE to swim, so I swim. I try to walk also. Working up a sweat get's that blood flowing and as I like to visualize, it doesn't give time for any artery to clog!! Play with various foods....if you want to eat fish for breakfast, eat it! I was always an eggs and bacon person, but now I eat yogurt, a banana and a home-made cupcake of some sort that is chock full of good stuff. Hydrogenated oils are REAL bad for us hi cholesterol people. READ INGREDIENTS..and stay away from them.. Almost all cookies have them! Learn to make your own healthy cakes and foods. You can turn things around! It takes time, just do one or two things at a time....but be patient....you'll be surprised at how much you can change yourself!

Comments (11)My husband used them out of the Atlanta airport a couple of times. He had a good experience with them. I think he got a little Fiat 500 one time and some sort of crazy Camaro convertible another time (because they ran out of what he originally reserved). I have no knowledge about under-25 or extra drivers. He's always been on his own when he used them. Oh, and he's always been old....See MoreAnyone used US Appliance before?
Comments (0)Deleted the one in Kitchens, sorry.. clicked Appliances but it posted it there.. kooky. Anyway: Has anyone purchased from US Appliance before? We are planning to buy the Frigidaire all freezer / all fridge combo (Professional series) and were worried that we might have warranty issues. It is like 900 cheaper than going to the local boxed store.... albeit the box store might be just as bad... who knows. Any experience?...See MoreRita / Bring Back Sophie 4 Real
