The animal experiment proves that, mung bean can effectively reduce the level of serum cholesterol, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein in the body, and significantly relieve the lesion of coronary atherosclerosis. Clinical practice also indicates that, if the hyperlipidemia patients eat some mung beans appropriately every day, it can significantly lower the level of cholesterol in the body.

    2. Eggplant:

Medical research shows that eggplant not only can lower the level of cholesterol, but also can prevent the damage of blood vessel caused by hyperlipemia. In addition, it can also be used to prevent and cure diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and arteriosclerosis.

    3. Cucumber:
    Cucumber tastes crisp and delicious. It has a lot of health effects on human body, such as clearing away heat, quenching thirst, promoting urination, and so on. It contains a large number of cellulose, which can promote the intestinal tract to expel out the wastes and residue of food, thus reducing the absorption of cholesterol. What's more, cucumber also contains a chemical substance called as "tartronic acid", which can inhibit the saccharide inside the body from transforming into adipose. As a result, it can help lose weight and regulate the metabolism of lipid.

    Mushroom has the effects of promoting digestion, eliminating fat, bringing high blood pressure down, and so on. In addition, it is rich in cellulose, which can promote the peristalsis of intestines and stomach, prevent constipation, and reduce the absorption of cholesterol by the intestinal tract. At the same time, mushroom also contains some nucleic acids such as purine, which can promote the decomposition of cholesterol. As a result, often eating mushrooms can reduce the total amount of cholesterol and triglycerides in the body.

    5. Sweet potato:
    Nutrition research finds out that, eating some sweet potatoes appropriately can prevent the lipid deposition in the cardiovascular system, prevent atherosclerosis, as well as reduce subcutaneous fat, so as to avoid obesity.
