Have you discovered Spelt yet? It is an ancient variety of wheat ...
Spelt is an ancient grain that traces its heritage back long before many wheat hybrids. Many of its benefits come from this fact: it offers a broader spectrum of nutrients compared to many of its more inbred cousins in the Triticum (wheat) family. Spelt features a host of different nutrients. It is an excellent source of manganese, and a good source of protein, copper, and zinc.
Reduce Risk of Atherosclerosis
The fiber in spelt can also help to reduce total and LDL cholesterol levels. The presence of fiber also contributes to the cholesterol-lowering potential of spelt. Fiber binds with the bile acids that are used to make cholesterol. Fiber isn't absorbed, so when it exits the body in the feces, it takes the bile acids with it, making less available for cholesterol production.

Bienvenu
Welcome to the Cholesterol club!
If you are trying to get your Cholesterol-LDL down and your Cholesterol-HDL up then you have come to the right place.
This is where you can share your experiences of medicines, doctors, foods, exercise and media related thereto.
You are not alone - particularly if you are over 50 and live in the West - you may even be in the majority within this social group!
Just to state what to most readers will be self-evident: I am not any kind of medical or dietary expert and I expect many bloggers will fall into the same category so please remember that we are just exchanging opinions. I will put some links on the site to experts in the field and if we are able to attract comments from any experts, could they please explain their qualifications?
Happy blogging! Tim
