[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 489364"] Switch fats to MUFAs - the monounsaturated stuff like olive oil and walnut oil whenever possible. Get slow release Niacin and take it at bedtime (timing does make a difference) [I]unless he's already on a statin medication to lower it[/I]. Exercise. He's got to get out/up and move. Add oatmeal or cheerios, whole grains are great for lowering cholesterol. When cooking meat, drain off the drippings as much as possible. Broil or baking in a broil pan are best. When eating pizza, blot the top with your napkin (and then look at all the grease/fat/calories you just soaked up yuck!) Add deep cold water fish to his diet. Tilapia ain't going to do it for this, those are farm raised and were created for it (you didn't think that fish came from nature, did you?). Think wild salmon instead. Again broil, bake, or grill. If you can switch him to vegetarian versions of stuff, do so. The corn dogs and fake bacon are pretty decent. The sausage, not so much. Tofu takes a talent I don't have but properly drained and seasoned does pretty well in a lasagna instead of ricotta if you mix it with Parmesan. ETA: There are some decent versions of vegan cheesecake if he insists on a rich dessert. ;) Experiment, but don't tell him. If you have a deep fryer, get rid of it. I don't care if you bury it in the backyard and give it a headstone, it's got to go. [/QUOTE]
