chloestrol high

high blood pressure
so my question is what should i cook for her which has no salt no sugar and no or less oil..........
i need a list of food

Answer 1

Your mom should stick with fresh of frozen foods. Stay away from canned foods as much as possible. They pack way too much sodium. just eat as healthy and natural as possible and by doing that her cholesteral should go down. As long as she checks her blood suger level regularly too she should be fine there. Make sure that if you want desserts make them with splenda. Try to get no sugar added and sugar free things too. To reduce oils you want to bake, broil, or poach the food. (poaching is pretty much just boiling) If you use oils stick with the healthy natural ones. Well I hope that this info really helps you out. Good luck and your mom will be fine aslong as she lives a healthy lifestyle now.
