Fortunately, not everyone with high cholesterol will develop PAD, and there are several ways to lower cholesterol.
The NHS says: “To lower your cholesterol, try to cut back on fatty foods, especially foods that contain a type of fat known as saturated fat. You can still have foods that contain a healthier type of fat called unsaturated fat.”
Changing what you eat, being more active, and stopping smoking regularly can help bring your cholesterol back to healthy levels.
The NHS notes that there are two main types of fats, saturated and unsaturated fats. Eating too many foods high in saturated fat can raise your blood cholesterol levels.
