A person could eat nothing but fruits, veg etables and fish and still have high cholesterol all because of the way they cook. “Breading, batter ing and frying all add fat,” explains Brenner. “Instead, try steam ing, poaching, grilling or baking nutritious foods. Avoid cream sauces, and use reduced-fat dressings” She also urgeg individu als to try using nonstick cookware and sprays, and to remember to always trim visible fat from meat before cooking. ■ 10.
