According to the American Heart Association: ‘You can reduce cholesterol in your blood by eating healthful foods, losing weight if you need to and exercising.’ What follows is a listing of the most potent foods to add to your diet if you want to fight high cholesterol and drive your levels down using your diet as a primary tool.
Included on this list are shiitake mushrooms, walnuts, and dark green leafy vegetables. Obviously, cholesterol levels involve a lot more than what you put in your mouth; but this list is a good start on getting them down to healthy levels. — Wendy Boswell

Fitness and diet has been a growing interest of mine for about 15 years now. What was initially just 'my thing' became a much stronger focus 8 years ago when I gave up working full time in business. I have since learned a lot about nutrition, and trained in Pilates mat work, as well as in more traditional gym programs.
We have travelled a lot in the last 6 years and I am only finally more settled in Almerimar this year. I know from this experience that at times it is difficult to lead a healthy lifestyle, but it is something that is very important to me.
My work with other people so far has been mainly one to one, which is how I prefer it, as I see diet and fitness as a very personal thing. We are all very different in what we are trying to achieve here and in the other things that are important in our lives!
