How to reduce your cholesterol, while on a low carb diet?

I am currently in a low carb diet but my cholesterol results where high, do I need to change anything in my diet? Or is there any suggestion on what I can eat to reduce my cholesterol.

1. not sure. I really would try and eat more grains and maybe try drinking some metamucil. I have noticed people with sluggish bowels tend to have problems with high cholesterol. also make sure you are drinking enough water to get rid of toxins in your body. Can you please help me with question http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091005141801AAg91mP
2. It could be familial. If you have it in your family, you may need medication. Just being on a low carb diet will not do it. The best example is pork rinds. No carbs, but it's fried pig skin. It's not going to help your cholesterol. Your best bet is the advice from above, pay attention to the cholesterol in foods you eat, and EXERCISE!!! It's great for lowering your cholesterol. Veggies, garlic and plenty of other things can be found that will help. Depending on your age and again family history, you may need medication.
3. Your cholesterol level is an important parameter to know health of your heart. there are two types of cholesterol - Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) which is also known as “bad cholesterol “ and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), also known as “good cholesterol”.

4. Missy, Please do not eat any more eggs, and eat as little chicken as you can and never fried, and eat no more than 4 ounces a day of kosher mutton, beef, or once a week salmon to satisfy the current B12 and niacin 'recommendations' with food and not with toxic synthetic supplements. Choose a regimen of low-carb low fat and <>high-nutrition<> and your belly fat will burn up shortly and your cholesterol will soon drop to normal levels as your liver heals and processes meat cholesterol better. You will be in my prayers for you to do better soon. My best to you, A1
