High cholesterol is definitely a dangerous condition which may even lead to heart attack and stroke. The existing condition of high cholesterol levels further rises due to several mistakes. The first most common mistake made while having high cholesterol is the consumption of whole eggs.

Majority of people, in spite of knowing the fact that eggs are high in cholesterol, still use them continuously. Content of cholesterol in an egg is around 213 mg which is definitely very high. But the people who still want to continue their use should only use the egg white as it is the yolk part which contains all the Cholesterol.  Second big mistake made by people with high cholesterol is the wrong selection of the seafood. Though seafood is considered to be healthy but few of its types like shellfish are very high in cholesterol and should be avoided. Instead tuna and salmon are considered to be better option and can be consumed.

Not exercising is the third biggest mistake made by the people as they think that managing high cholesterol levels is all about diet. Exercise is also very important as it keeps you active and reduces excess weight that prevents accumulation of plague in the arteries and thus keeps a check on your high cholesterol levels as well.
