Stay Healthy

Most of us believe that cholesterol found in foods like eggs and shrimps. We believe that it is the major factor affecting our blood cholesterol. But according to the article that I read last week, studies have shown that this is not the case. The major contributor to high blood cholesterol is having a diet high in saturated and trans fat. High cholesterol foods have a little, if any direct effect on blood cholesterol levels if eaten in moderate amounts. It should be not more than 300 mg of cholesterol per day. So, be aware that trans fat is as bad as saturated fat. It is said that just five grams of trans fat each day can increase the risk of heart disease by 25 percent. So, be careful just eat healthy foods so that our family will stay healthy and away from any diseases.
