Sugar:
It has been found that eating sugar is responsible for reduction of protective HDL cholesterol and increase in other risk factors linked to Heart disease.
Coffee:
Drinking boiled or French press coffee increases cholesterol level. Modern paper coffee filters trap the offending chemicals and keep them from entering the cup. Therefore, drinking paper-filtered coffee generally does not increase cholesterol levels. But, paper-filtered coffee increases homocysteine, another risk factor for heart disease. The effects of decaffeinated coffee on cholesterol levels remain in debate.
Alcohol:
Moderate drinking increases protective HDL cholesterol. This effect happens equally with different kinds of alcohol-containing beverages. Alcohol also acts as a blood thinner, an effect that might lower heart disease. In some cases light drinking might do more good than harm, but people with high cholesterol should consult with their healthcare professional.
Sweets and Snacks:
Some sweets and snacks like baked goods (cakes and cookies) cheese crackers, and some chips are often high in saturated fat and cholesterol. So limit sweet baked goods that are made with lots of saturated fat, mostly from butter, eggs, and whole milk such as Croissants, pastries, muffins, biscuits, butter rolls, and doughnuts. These are also high in cholesterol. Not all snack foods are high in saturated fat and cholesterol. Some of these are low fat ones like Bagels, Bread sticks, Ready-to-eat cereals without added sugar, Frozen grapes or banana slices; or other fresh fruit.
Fats and Oils:
Fats and oils contains large amount of calories. Just be sure to limit the total amount of fats or oils to keep calories in check. Limit butter, lard, fatback, and solid shortenings. They are high in saturated fat and cholesterol.
