30 Cholesterol-Fighting Foods You Need in Your Diet
Whey Protein

Studies have shown that adding whey protein to your diet could lower both LDL and total cholesterol in your body. One study had individuals consume 54 grams of whey protein per day for 12 weeks and saw a significant reduction in LDL cholesterol.
Be careful with some whey protein, however! Check the sugar content before you buy a particular brand. You also don't have to down a ton of shakes to get the benefits. You can add the powder into pancake mix and other baked goods.
