if you ever had to start consuming low fat dairy and cheese due to high cholesterol, did your ldl cholesterol levels decrease? - eviltoast

I eat cheese every day, mostly because it’s cheap and easy to eat with a toast.

Wondering if changing my regular dairy and cheese for low fat versions would be enough.

    I echo the other commenter and recommend speaking with a “registered dietician” (RD degree) about your personal nutrition goals.

    Calories in/out, physical activity levels, and genetics are three of the biggest factors with blood cholesterol levels. Would you overall eat fewer calories if you switched to low fat dairy? Maybe then it’s a decent strategy for you.

    Harvard’s Nutrition Source is a great educational resource about nutrition that is science based and uses accessible language.
