The #1 Reason Your Cholesterol Is Still High
Thursday, May 15, 2025
You know how frustrating it is to feel like you’re doing all the “right” things... and your cholesterol still won’t budge?
Here’s what most people don’t realize:
👉 High cholesterol isn’t just about genetics or aging—it’s foodborne.
Yep. Not just food-related. Foodborne.
That’s what doctors like Caldwell Esselstyn, Dean Ornish, and T. Colin Campbell have shown for decades. Heart disease—and the cholesterol that fuels it—is mostly caused by what we eat.
This changed everything for me.
So if your cholesterol hasn’t improved with supplements, exercise, or stress management… it’s not your fault.
You’ve just been fighting the wrong enemy.
What You're About To Discover:
- The real reason cholesterol gets high in the first place
- What if my problem is genetic?
- What to focus on to control your numbers—naturally and fast
The Real Reason Cholesterol Increases
High cholesterol and heart disease don’t run in your family.
Eating habits do.
The good news? That means the fix is in your control. Not with pills. With your next meal.
As Dr. Esselstyn wrote in Prevent & Reverse Heart Disease:
“The dietary changes that have helped my clients over the past twenty years can help you, too. They can actually make you immune to heart attacks.”
When I finally understood that heart disease is a foodborne problem, everything shifted. It was incredibly empowering to know that the solution is in my hands—not the doctor’s and not pharma’s, but mine.
What if my problem is genetic?
Only about 5% of the population has a condition where cholesterol stays high no matter what.
If you’re in that group, the focus shifts to managing inflammation (with the same food choices as the rest of us) and tracking more than just cholesterol levels. But for the other 95%?
👉 The issue isn’t in your bloodline—it’s in your daily food routine.
Personally, once I understood this and started following my own plan to lower cholesterol naturally… everything clicked. What I inherited wasn’t “high cholesterol”—it was the way my family ate.
How to Reach Optimal Cholesterol Levels
The key isn’t adding things to your diet. It’s about removing the foods that raise your cholesterol in the first place. Here’s what to eliminate:
- Dietary Cholesterol: Food labels should say 0 under Cholesterol.
- Saturated Fat: Ideally, 0–0.5g max per serving.
- Trans Fat: Banned in the U.S., but check labels—especially imported or processed foods.
It’s that simple. When you remove the trigger foods, cholesterol has nowhere to go but down.

Hi, I'm Alejandra
Founder Of Without Statins
I stumbled onto a natural way to lower cholesterol—totally by accident.
While building a research-based weight loss program, people with high cholesterol kept asking, “Will this improve my cholesterol too?”
To our surprise, many came back just weeks later saying, “My cholesterol is already back to normal.”
That’s when it hit me: With high cholesterol running deep in my own family history, it became a no-brainer — I had to enhance the program to help more people avoid meds and finally stop worrying.
