When it comes to managing high cholesterol, small dietary changes can help. Eating enough vegetables not only helps reduce high cholesterol but can actually prevent the condition. While you may think that fresh veggies are healthiest, think again. Frozen veggies are just as nutritious. Plus, they tend to be budget-friendly and have a much longer shelf life.

High cholesterol affects about 10% of U.S. adults. And having it puts you at a higher risk of developing heart disease and stroke.1 We spoke with registered dietitians and dove into the latest research to share the seven best frozen vegetables for lower cholesterol.

We don't eat soybeans, number one, but we eat all the others.

In particular, mushrooms, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts are underappreciated.

Mushrooms are incredibly good for you.

For each of the above, be sure to drink what moisture was left behind. Unfortunately, these three all leave really good substances in the water in the pan.

Since when are mushrooms a vegetable? Just another shining example of credentialism run amok.

Cutting back on carbs and getting outside and exercising will also work wonders.

Brussels sprouts are underappreciated.

Brussels Sprouts takes particularly well to lotsa butter.

Well, not everyone is a botanist. I was raised to consider corn a vegetable. After all, it is in most packages of "mixed vegetables". Some of the pedantic folks have a problem with calling "peanuts" nuts. And then there are tomatoes ...

Mushrooms are a fungus, not a vegetable.

I always ask the doctor to check my cholesterol. He always tells me that it's not high.

I always tell him not to blame me; I try to raise it. LOL
