Cholesterol-Fighting Tricks That Take Less Than 60 Seconds a Day

11. Add a Dash of Cinnamon to Cereal or Coffee

A dash of cinnamon adds warmth and comfort to breakfast while offering study-supported hope for cholesterol management. Some clinical research points to potential LDL reduction with regular cinnamon intake, though experts agree results can vary and cinnamon isn’t a miracle cure. Still, this spice is an easy way to flavor oatmeal, yogurt, or coffee—no extra sugar required.

12. Sprinkle Psyllium Husk into Juice

For a potent, targeted dose of LDL fighting power, mix half a teaspoon of Psyllium Husk into a small glass of water or unsweetened juice. This tasteless husk is almost pure soluble fiber, forming a dense gel in your gut that acts as a super-magnet, sweeping cholesterol and bile acids out of your system. It's the most concentrated, efficient way to get your daily cholesterol-binding fiber—often used in clinical studies. This quick stir takes less than 30 seconds and is a powerful, direct path to noticeably lower LDL levels when used consistently.
