General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

A high fiber diet with fruits, vegetables , whole grain foods would be best to help lower cholesterol.
Each main meal should have fruits or vegetables and they should be a part of snacks. A lot of water/fluid is needed when increasing fiber intake and the increase should be done slowly to allow the intestines to adjust.

This should be combined with physical activity.

I hope this helps
