Overview
- Nutritionist Anita Wong posted a TikTok on January 5 advising seven foods to eat roughly twice a week to support lowering cholesterol.
- Her list features oily fish such as salmon, with mackerel or sardines suggested as cheaper alternatives for similar healthy fats and omega‑3.
- She emphasizes fibre‑rich choices including cruciferous vegetables and oats, noting beta glucan in oats can bind excess cholesterol.
- Wong recommends kefir or yoghurt twice weekly to support the gut biome, plus avocado, sweet potato, kiwi with skin, and berries for fibre and phytonutrients.
- Wales Online, Birmingham Live, and the Mirror republished the guidance alongside NHS warnings about cholesterol risks and reminders to cut fatty processed foods and aim for 150 minutes of weekly exercise.
