The focus should shift toward meals that are high in fiber, low in unhealthy fats, completely plant-based, and light on the digestive system. Heavy, oily, fried items, along with dairy products and non-vegetarian food, tend to raise LDL (bad cholesterol) and put extra pressure on the liver. So the first correction is not complicated dieting; it is simply cleaning up your plate. A cholesterol-friendly diet should mainly include raw vegetables, cooked green vegetables, simple dals like moong or masoor, millets instead of refined flour, seasonal fruits, and very minimal oil. When this foundation becomes clear and consistent, following a proper structure becomes much easier.
