The 'superfood' breakfast that can significantly lower your cholesterolExperts have shared the ultimate superfood for breakfast that can help lower cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular disease - and it's something you can easily make at homeView 2 Images This is the best breakfast according to experts (stock photo)This breakfast has been hailed as a 'superfood' by nutrition experts - and it's something you can easily make at home. ‌A new study by the University of Bonn found that moderate consumption, even for just two days, was associated with significant decreases in cholesterol levels. ‌Those who consumed only porridge diets saw significant benefits with nearly a 10 per cent drop in LDL cholesterol - LDL is typically referred to as the "bad" type of cholesterol, as excess LDL can lead to plaque formation and other cardiovascular complications. Given its high fibre content, porridge also creates a sense of satiety, meaning that those eating it will feel full for longer. A 40g serving of oats provides around 3g of fibre, or 7.5g per 100g, which meets the requirements for a 'high fibre' food (at least 6g per 100g).
