Cholesterol can be very difficult to overcome, especially when you’re a foodie. Here are some healthier options to help with those cravings!

So, just the other day, our team got together and started pondering over what soul food means to each of us. After tens of hundreds of options, banter over favorite foods, there was one kind of food that prevailed as the crowd favorite – fried food!

A bucket of fried chicken, a roadside hot wada pav, sizzling spring rolls, a packet of potato chips with ketchup, we had to stop discussing our favorites in order to stop salivating.
And as much as we love how amazing fried food looks or how it tastes even better, this food group is just bad news to us! Because as soon as you deep fry any item, the entire fat content of the oil is absorbed by the edible item.

This leads to higher levels of cholesterol in our body, which if left unchecked can lead to choked up arteries and heart attacks.

Did that piece of information stress you out? Take a breather and let us give you the awesome alternatives to your favorite fried food.
1. Potato Chips
No prize for guessing, but these golden crisp slices of perfection have to be first on the list. Made out of potato, potato chips are high in fat and are extremely high in sodium, which is the reason behind you going back for seconds or thirds.

How can you call for a burger and skip on french fries? It’s a choice that needs 100% commitment from you end along with massive will power.
