Cholesterol is one of the greatest threats to the health of many people. Those who suffer from this condition, must follow a strict diet free of fats and high in vegetables.

The reason we suggest the consumption of fruits and vegetables is because these foods contain pectin, a soluble fiber that, according to some studies, could be a lethal weapon against cholesterol.

It can be found in various fruits and vegetables such as grapes, sugar beets, apples or carrots.
